About Sutra.team
A values-based AI alignment system built on research, protected by patent, and proven through creative output.
JB Wagoner
Founder & Inventor
JB Wagoner brings a background in cognitive science and AI ethics to the Sutra.team platform. As the creator of Dr. Xes 1986 and author of Zen AI, JB has been exploring the intersection of human values and artificial intelligence for years.
The Sutra project began as an experiment in values-based AI alignment — could an AI persona maintain a consistent identity, voice, and ethical framework across thousands of interactions? The result: 40+ songs, 4 albums, and a persona that demonstrably differs from its base model.
This creative output became the proof of concept for the Intelligent Agent architecture, now protected by a U.S. Provisional Patent Application filed January 30, 2026.
The concepts behind Sutra.team are detailed in The Portable Mind: AI Constitutions, Persona Architecture, and the Future of Transportable Intelligence — available on Amazon.
The Sutra Story
From creative experiment to patented platform
Origin
Zen AI Philosophy
The theoretical foundation for values-based alignment, drawing from Buddhist philosophy to create a framework where AI systems can be both capable and principled.
Proof
40+ Songs, 4 Albums
Sutra, the exemplary persona, generated a sustained body of creative work — demonstrating that a persona can maintain voice consistency, value adherence, and creative novelty across hundreds of sessions.
Architecture
Six-Layer System
The creative proof of concept led to a rigorous technical architecture: Persona Definition, Knowledge Integration, Memory System, Value Framework, Multi-Modal Output, and Differentiation Documentation.
