## Abstract (arXiv)

Modern AI systems are increasingly deployed under non-stationary computational, demographic, and operational conditions in which static resource allocation strategies degrade both predictive performance and human-centric properties such as fairness and explainability. This paper presents AURORA-AI, an Adaptive Utility-driven Resource Orchestration framework for Resilient AI that unifies Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman feedback control, Lyapunov-based stability monitoring, and a fairness-aware composite utility into a single closed-loop policy.The framework continuously redistributes computational budget across a population of heterogeneous AI models so that the global utility, defined jointly over predictive performance, demographic parity, cost, latency, robustness, and interpretability, remains maximised under disruption. The framework is evaluated in a stress-rich discrete-time simulation that concurrently injects demographic bias shocks, gradual concept drift, and abrupt black-swan disruptions, and is compared against five established controllers including Static, Round Robin, Greedy, LinUCB, and a deep reinforcement-learning agent based on Proximal Policy Optimisation. AURORA-AI achieves immediate recovery from the black-swan event compared to eighty-eight time steps for the Static baseline and twenty-two for Proximal Policy Optimisation, lifts the alpha-quantile and the super-quantile by twenty-nine and twenty-five percent respectively, simultaneously reduces the mean and maximum demographic parity gap, and increases the fraction of Lyapunov-stable operating steps. These results indicate that fairness-aware adaptive orchestration grounded in stability theory is a practical and theoretically motivated path toward resilient human-centric AI deployment.
