No. It suggests to me a piece of mathematics, or some approximation to it programmed on a computer, but gives me no reason to imagine agents or replicator swarms. I am not familiar with Stargate or Halo, beyond knowing what genre of thing they are. I do not know what “USI” stands for, and can make too many plausible guesses to be convinced by any of them.
You seem to have built up your own private language on this subject. Without a glossary it is difficult to know what you are talking about. I have never heard of Undertale, let alone any of the characters in it. I have now glanced over the Wikipedia article, and I can’t match up your description of Chara with what the article says.
ETA: Having just looked up your profile here and read some of your older posts, is the private language here Ziz’s rather than yours?
Further, the highly technical-sounding name “unbounded generalized logical inductor” suggests mathematics, but my guess is that it is not actually a mathematical concept and there is no underlying mathematization available. This gives an undeserved impression of rigor, precision, and formality even though the actual analogies are really purposeless and wooey. Somehow a USI paving the universe with computronium for its “own benefit” is a “chara inductor”, but something making lots of paperclips is not, even though they’re just USI’s optimizing for different things, and also this is all some kind of moral lesson.
