Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Go to an American or Canadian or British or New Zealand or Australian university, and I dare say to one in Germany, France or anywhere else in the Western world, and you will soon notice two competing claims about the status of individuals and societies. One is universalist; it makes claims as to how all human beings-just by virtue, say, of being human or possessing reason or being God's children or having a capacity to feel pain and pleasure or being the object of some hypothetical social contract-are entitled to the same general thing when in the same general position. The whole post-Second World War human rights edifice is built on this sort of universalist foundation.

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.

How this classification was reachedexpand

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.
