<p>The Tractatus Framework offers one answer: architectural governance that makes AI accountable to the communities it serves. Not through trust in vendor training, but through visible, auditable, democratically-determined rules.</p>

<h2>Executive Summary</h2>
<p>AI deployment is outpacing regulatory capacity. While policymakers debate frameworks for large language models operated by major technology companies, a parallel transformation is underway: the migration of AI capabilities to <strong>small, locally-deployed models in homes, communities, and small organisations</strong>. Recent industry research indicates that 72% of enterprise executives expect small language models (SLMs) to surpass large language models in prominence by 2030 (IBM Institute for Business Value, 2026). This shift creates an urgent governance challenge: <strong>who controls AI deployed at the edge, and under what rules?</strong></p>

<div data-reading-level="overview">
<h2>10. Conclusion</h2>
<p>The governance gap in AI deployment is widening. As capabilities migrate to distributed, locally-deployed systems, traditional regulatory approaches face fundamental challenges of scale, jurisdiction, and verification.</p>
<p>Constitutional gating offers a regulatory strategy: mandate auditable architectural infrastructure rather than unverifiable behavioural requirements. The Tractatus Framework provides a concrete specification that can be implemented across deployment paradigms&mdash;from cloud LLMs to sovereign home SLLs.</p>
<p><strong>The policy window is now.</strong> Within five years, if industry projections hold, AI deployment will be characterised by thousands of small, domain-specific models operating in homes, communities, and small organisations. Governance frameworks developed now will shape that landscape; frameworks developed later will struggle to retrofit.</p>
<p>We offer this analysis in the spirit of contribution to ongoing policy deliberation. The questions are hard, the uncertainties substantial, and the stakes significant. Policymakers, researchers, and communities must work together to develop governance frameworks adequate to the challenge.</p>
