Abstract
The world has witnessed with great interest, in the last few years, the growing power of digital media capabilities and the political consequences of their use. Aside from the well-known events of the Arab Spring—especially the so-called Facebook Revolution in Egypt—digital media and social networking have been essential tools in all sorts of political activity.1 Barak Obama’s shrewd use of social media capabilities played a pivotal role in his electoral victories in 2008 and 2012.2 Outside of mainstream American politics, antiausterity campaigners in Great Britain have used Twitter to announce and coordinate direct action against banks and business they accuse of not paying sufficient tax. Students in Chile, Montreal, and California take digital cameras everywhere they go and post all their interactions with each other and with authorities on YouTube for public viewing. Even slum dwellers are finding ways of using Facebook and other social networking platforms to challenge attempts by local governments to relocate them to more distant peripheries of the city.3 Given these events, it is easy to conclude that the digital capabilities of the twenty-first century are radically changing the world before humanity’s eyes.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
