Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Modernity' is a grand and difficult word-and one all too easily conjuring up, arguably, the somewhat one-dimensional imagery of urbane flaneurs, bustling trams, and the arc-lights flickering above them. And yet, there no doubt is a lot to be said about all those narratives of modernity which center on the ever-intensifying, material interminglings of men and machines-of subjectivities and artificial, machine-infused spaces-that indisputably defined this so-called modern age; or which center, if you will, on the ensuing, gradual exposure of that very figure 'human nature' through his (or her) own creations: 'technologically produced stimulias the civilizing agents of the psyche', as Schivelbusch's history of The Railway Journey once had it [1977, 150-151 (my trans.)]. Indeed, the last three decades or so have seen no small amount of activity in the direction of such civilizing agents on the part, not least, of historians of science, who began charting the various ways in which the devices of modernity impinged on, transformed, made problematic, and helped fabricate conceptions of human physiology, perception, subjectivity, epistemology, and so on. A project which had considerable resonances and correspondences in the history of art, culture. and 'media', the machines of the 19th and early 20th century-from trains, telegraphs, and precision instruments to (more notoriously) gramophones, films, and typewriters-on these accounts produced, exposed, and effected many features of what began to take shape as human nature, naturalized.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
