Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

“Words are but symbols for the relations of things to one another and to us; nowhere do they touch upon absolute truth,” writes Friedrich Nietzsche, “through words and concepts we shall never reach beyond the wall off relations, to some sort of fabulous primal ground of things.” As he suggests in his characteristically aphoristic style, language cannot articulate truths. In his essay Daniel Bergman brings the proto-deconstruction Nietzsche puts forth in “Truth and Falsity of the Ultramoral Sense” to bear on Shakespeare’s Othello . A play that is, as Bergman writes, rife with “tragically mistaken meanings,” Othello enacts the degrees to which language shapes and creates our realities. Reading Othello through the linguistic theories of Nietzsche, Ferdinand de Saussure, and Jacques Derrida, Bergman deftly argues that the play is ultimately a microcosm in which we encounter the limits of signification.  Dr. Erin Wunker

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.
