This paper proposes the Consciousness Acceleration Interface (CAI) model to systematically address the problem of anthropomorphic torque in contemporary deep human-AI coupling. Through a topological examination of seventy-six years (1950–2026) of anthropomorphization history, the paper identifies four destructive regression paths along which deviation mechanisms return: cognitive dissonance,...
