Özet

The transition toward sustainable socio-technical systems requires more than technological innovation; it demands an integration of nature's adaptive intelligence with computational design. This paper introduces the hybrid bio-algorithmic intelligence (HBAI) framework, which co-designs artificial intelligence and ecological principles to create self-adaptive, resource-efficient and regenerative systems. Drawing from biological mechanisms such as stigmergy, mutualism and plasticity, HBAI formalises a multi-layered architecture linking ecological sensing, algorithmic learning and adaptive governance. The framework outlines translation pathways from natural motifs to algorithmic components and governance levers, demonstrating how co-evolutionary feedbacks can enhance resilience and reduce resource intensity. Conceptually, HBAI establishes a bridge between biomimicry and AI governance by embedding sustainability as a systemic property of intelligence rather than an external objective. Through theoretical synthesis and hypothetical application scenarios such as renewable-energy microgrids and circular-economy networks, it illustrates how algorithmic systems can evolve within planetary boundaries.
