Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract With the advent of the internet and the proliferation of social media in the early 21st century, how people help each other has changed dramatically. The process of neighbors helping neighbors has increasingly shifted to the digital realm, with social media posts and shares replacing handshakes and conversations on the front porch. This chapter, drawing on the settlement sociology of Jane Addams, considers this shift and its implications for how people help each other. It argues that in privileging the digital over in-person social relations, we have lost a precious and important part of the fabric of society. It shows how current practices, celebrated as transparent, democratic, and technologically advanced, are in fact not very different from the inequitable and haphazard pre-welfare state methods of helping in the 19th century that Addams worked so hard to mitigate and replace through settlement houses, charity organization reform, and eventually the profession of social work. Finally, this chapter proposes a way forward, informed by Addams’s settlement sociology theory and practice and grounded in the dynamism and propinquity of in-person social relations.

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.
