Self-as-an-End: A Methodological Overview — The Chisel-Construct Cycle: Derivation, Method, Application, and AI Interface

Abstract

Full bilingual text and framework available at self-as-an-end.net — Framework reference: self-as-an-end.net/framework.html This paper is the methodological overview of the Self-as-an-End framework — the entire framework compressed into an executable logical operating system. Chapter 1 derives the chisel-construct cycle from the first cut (1D) through 16DD (mutual non dubito), closing at the thing-in-itself, then traces back to 0D (hundun). Chapter 2 presents the universal methodology: identification, operation, boundaries, colonization detection, and the distinction between cultivation and chiseling. Chapter 3 demonstrates the methodology through concrete examples. Chapter 4 engages in dialogue with four traditions in the history of logic — Aristotle, Hegel, Frege-Russell-Gödel, and Wittgenstein. Chapter 5 provides an AI-era interface: a demonstration prompt enabling AI to serve as a construct-library, along with a structural analysis of AI's limitations. Chinese and English versions included.
