Engineering Truth in the Age of Probabilistic AI
The era of AI "hallucinations" in enterprise is over. Veriprajna architects deterministic AI systems where neural networks propose candidates, and immutable physics validates every output.
From discovering thermally stable battery materials that prevent catastrophic failures to generating copyright-auditable audio, we deliver AI that is accountable to the laws of thermodynamics and the laws of intellectual property.
Corporate AI is dividing into two fundamentally different methodologies: the probabilistic "Wrapper Economy" and the deterministic "Deep Tech" approach.
Lightweight applications atop general-purpose LLMs. Engines of plausibility, not truth. They predict statistically likely tokens, not physically valid states.
Architecturalization of constraints from physical laws, mathematical logic, and verifiable provenance. AI proposes; the Oracle validates.
"For the deep enterprise—organizations responsible for the safety of energy storage systems, the integrity of intellectual property, or the reliability of autonomous infrastructure—the probabilistic nature of standard generative AI represents an unacceptable liability."
— Veriprajna Technical Whitepaper, 2025
This whitepaper explores deterministic AI through rigorous case studies in materials science and enterprise media.
Deploying GNoME (Graph Networks for Materials Exploration) paired with DFT (Density Functional Theory) to discover thermally stable electrolytes for next-generation batteries.
Using Demucs (Deep Source Separation) and RVC (Retrieval-Based Voice Conversion) with C2PA provenance to eliminate IP black box risk.
Thermal runaway is not a random accident—it's a deterministic sequence of chemical failures. Understanding these stages is critical for engineering stable electrolytes.
SEI Decomposition: Solid Electrolyte Interphase breaks down. Lithiated carbon reacts with solvent, releasing exothermic heat (Q_exo).
Separator Melting: Polymer separator (PE/PP) loses integrity → Internal Short Circuit (ISC). Electrolyte decomposes into flammable gases.
Cathode Collapse: Lattice decomposes, releasing O₂. Oxygen + flammable gases + heat = massive combustion. Battery becomes thermal bomb.
Critical Insight: Traditional liquid electrolytes (LiPF₆ in EC/DMC) are the fuel source in Stage 3. Veriprajna uses GNoME + DFT to discover solid-state alternatives with decomposition energies stable beyond 200°C.
While LLMs process linear text, materials are defined by 3D geometry and quantum mechanical forces. GNoME treats materials as graphs where atoms are nodes and bonds are edges.
Encode features: atomic number, electronegativity, atomic radius. Each node represents a single atom in the crystal.
Encode interatomic connections: bond distances, angles. Edges represent the spatial relationships between atoms.
Atoms update their state based on neighbors' states. The network learns "local chemical environment" for every atom.
Material properties (like energy) remain unchanged under rotation. GNoME enforces this symmetry mathematically—predictions are consistent with physical laws regardless of coordinate system.
Symmetry-Aware Partial Substitutions. Takes known stable crystals and proposes intelligent substitutions based on periodic table chemistry.
Generates random chemical formulas based on charge neutrality (e.g., Li₃PS₄) and predicts most stable lattice using active learning.
A material is only stable if it is thermodynamically competitive against all other possible phases. The Convex Hull represents the lower bound of energy for a compositional space.
Where E_crystal is total crystal energy, n_i is atoms of element i, and μ_i is chemical potential.
Veriprajna Workflow:
GNoME predicts E_hull (probabilistic) → DFT calculates true convex hull (deterministic) → Only validated materials proceed to synthesis
GNoME + DFT is not a linear pipeline—it's a cyclic loop where each iteration improves the hit rate from <1% (random) to 80%+ (guided).
GNoME generates 10,000 candidates. Model predicts E_hull with uncertainty. Select high-confidence stable (exploitation) + high-uncertainty (exploration) batches.
Selected batch sent to HPC cluster for r²SCAN DFT calculation. True convex hull energies computed. Results fed back into GNoME training set.
GNN updates weights. Learns "phosphate tetrahedra distorted this way are unstable." Hit rate improves. Cycle repeats until target materials discovered.
Black box diffusion models create provenance obfuscation. Enterprises cannot use generated audio if they cannot prove chain of title.
Diffusion models trained on billions of scraped copyrighted works. When generating audio, the model traverses latent space—a mathematical amalgamation of training data.
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) for Audio. Construct new soundscapes from specific, licensed audio stems. Every component traceable to verified source.
Convolutional layers downsample audio waveform. Compresses to high-dimensional latent representation capturing semantic essence ("this is a kick drum").
Transposed convolutions upsample latent back to raw waveform. Skip connections preserve high-frequency details lost in bottleneck.
Inserts Transformer at bottleneck for long-range context. Self-attention analyzes entire sequence—understands repetitive musical structure across seconds.
Cross-domain: Time (waveform) + Frequency (spectrogram) fusion
Broadcast archives, music libraries (verified IP ownership)
Separate into 4+ stems: Vocals, Drums, Bass, Other (near-studio quality)
Stems indexed by audio features (timbre, pitch, rhythm) in vector database
Copyright-safe "Lego blocks" ready for retrieval and reassembly
Separates content (phonemes/prosody) from speaker identity. Speaker-agnostic "soft units".
Queries licensed voice database. Retrieves closest matching feature vector for each frame.
Fuses retrieved target vectors with input content. Preserves original performance timing.
Converts feature vectors to high-fidelity waveform (48kHz). Realistic, artifact-free.
In traditional deepfake models, target voice is learned as opaque neural network weights. In RVC, acoustic details (breathiness, gravel, resonance) are not generated—they are retrieved from specific, authorized recordings.
Target voice stored as weights → Output source unknown → No audit trail
Retrieved from licensed index point #4592 → C2PA manifest logs exact source → Full audit trail
Generating audio is only half the battle. To be enterprise-grade, assets must carry tamper-evident cryptographic provenance.
Open standard using public-key cryptography to sign tamper-evident "Manifest" embedded directly in media files.
Manifest signed with enterprise private key. Any downstream user (streaming service, broadcaster) validates signature to confirm audio generated using only authorized IP assets.
Adapts image quality metric (SSIM) for audio validation by comparing spectrograms of input and output.
Any asset below SSIM threshold automatically rejected—prevents AI from skipping words, changing rhythm, or introducing artifacts that compromise performance fidelity.
Transitioning from probabilistic AI to deterministic AI requires fundamental infrastructure shifts. You cannot run DFT or train RVC on standard web servers.
