Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Why, when levels of trust in society are low, is it important to try to increase trust, particularly in people or groups that are trustworthy? This question concerns the value of trust, which I explore in this paper by considering the ‘genealogy’ of trust – that is, why we have the concept in the first place, given the kinds of beings we are. What are the human needs to which it answers? Philosophers have responded to this question by referring to our need for cooperation, and to that need alone. But I argue that this view is too simplistic. I claim that trust picks out distinctive ways in which we rely on others to meet our needs for both cooperation and belonging. Moreover, if that’s what the concept is for, then the value of trust must lie in it helping us to satisfy these needs, which trust does when it is met with trustworthiness. Why, then, when there is little trust, should we increase trust in those who are trustworthy? The answer is for the sake of people’s cooperation and belonging with others.

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.
