Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Rarely does a day go by without some kind of a declaration confirming the ‘heightened uncertainty’ that comes with living in an ‘(new) era of uncertainty’. Bordering on the apocalyptic, such prophesies are often disseminated by a sensationalist media with a vested interest in increasing the circulation of its news. But just as we are plagued by all these unknowns lurking in the shadows of the future, so are we instructed to take back control over our destinies and manage all the risks confronting our finances, health, security, relationships, in fact, virtually every area of our lives; or what Michael Power (2004) labels as the ‘risk management of everything’. For this purpose, expertise promises to assist with governing the future to make it safe, secure and prosperous. Experts who master the appropriate methods to plot risk’s propensity to inflict harm are rewarded with some measure of credibility and authority.

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.

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.
