This paper is an epistemic containment operation. It acknowledges that LLMs are being positioned as “silicon samples,” then converts the substitution of human respondents into a manageable survey-design and documentation problem. Its mac...

The abstract is not rebuilding consent; it is optimizing the readability of a pre-existing consent interface. It uses AI to map cookie-banner text from 200 websites into standardized purposes, then lowers the stated comprehension level f...

The paper relocates the regulatory target from the trained model and training run to the inference call. It builds a twenty-mechanism taxonomy across monitoring, verification, and enforcement, then tests those mechanisms against deployer...

This is a pedagogical analogy paper. It maps Thermomix use onto generative-AI use, then evaluates whether different modes preserve active engagement through ICAP and SAMR. Its practical move is to turn AI in education into a question of ...

This paper is not proving that identity is irrelevant. It is proving that, once a mobility trajectory and a fixed candidate set are supplied, explicit age, gender, occupation, and income labels add almost no incremental ranking signal to...

This paper is not really about watermarking. It is an audit of the black box surrounding watermarking: vendor claims, inaccessible deployed systems, weak independent testing, and regulation that demands detectability without guaranteeing...

This paper is designing a labor-thinning control system for AI-mediated care. It moves clinicians from authoring each interaction into three narrower functions: preventive constraints, machine-triggered monitoring, and periodic evaluatio...

This paper is an upgraded sensor for a diseased tournament system. It replaces crude “important/unimportant” labels with simulated qualification probabilities for win, draw, and loss, then applies them to UEFA’s competing tournament form...

This paper documents the first breach in analysts’ information-production moat. GenAI increases sources, topical coverage, analytical methods, and timeliness—but also produces more information than human analysts can reliably process. Th...

This paper builds a high-resolution dashboard of the UK economic machine: monthly inter-industry payment flows, millions of organizations, hundreds of millions of transactions, and multi-trillion-pound aggregate values. Its real function...

The paper presents railroads as engines of modernization: connectivity increased population by 7 percent, drew in migrants, accelerated structural change, and apparently helped spread folk high schools and community houses. Its strongest...

This paper converts Italy’s invoice ledger into a directed production-network map. It measures buyers, sellers, centrality, distance, geography, sector, and tail exponents. Its central finding is concentration: a small number of firms oc...

The paper models narrative communication as a strategic game: an informed sender interprets uncertain data for a receiver, while the receiver discounts the message according to the sender’s incentives. Its experiment finds that stronger ...

This is a credible hospital-operations paper being asked to carry a much larger ideological load. It finds that surgical hubs improve measured throughput: 14.5% higher physician productivity and a 10-day reduction in waiting times, with ...

This is an empirical autopsy of Germany’s renewable-support machinery. It shows that policy has created generators whose private incentives conflict with wholesale prices and grid stability: wind often has an incentive to stop at deeply ...

The paper maps demographic decline onto a geography of economic amputation. Population loss does not merely reduce output; it causes smaller cities to fall below industry-specific viability thresholds, destroying local job diversity. Tho...

This paper tries to replace climate-policy tribalism with welfare-economic accounting. Its stated target is public-facing reports that discuss policy without exposing assumptions, uncertainty, or tradeoffs; its method is to examine 2025 ...
