Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Through methods varying from complex economic theory to rants on CNBC, the world of finance has developed an image of itself through the metaphor of a game. This metaphor can be examined through an analysis of the representation of capitalism in video and board games, and the emerging theory and practice of gamification, which describes the application of game structures to everyday life. This form of gamification creates an image of the world whose focuses and exclusions reinforce and naturalize the tenets of neoliberal ideology. Gamification emphasizes the neoliberal models of rationality and systems optimization, which exclude “externalities” such as ethics and risk. In this way the game serves as a useful sustaining metaphor for financial capital.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
