Prompt gaming occurs when a person designs an input to influence an AI evaluator without improving the underlying work being evaluated. Instead of demonstrating genuine quality, the participant attempts to […]
How AIIM Is Designed to Reduce Conflicts of Interest in Funding Decisions
AIIM is not assumed to be impartial because artificial intelligence is inherently wiser, kinder, or more just than people. The model is designed to reduce certain sources of conflicts of […]
What Is Fairness? Why AIIM Could Become Humanity’s Fairest Engine for Distributing Money
Fairness means applying the same relevant criteria to ourselves that we apply to other people. If we regard our own need for food, security, recognition, meaningful work, or financial support […]
Why Superintelligence Needs the AIIM App as Much as Humans Do
A superintelligence may know vastly more than any human, but it would still face a fundamental organizational problem: not all knowledge, discoveries, questions, and computational tasks are equally important. A […]
There Are DAOs for Biology and Medicine. Why Is Abstract Mathematics Being Left Behind?
Decentralized science, commonly known as DeSci, promises to transform how research is funded, evaluated, and published. Yet the movement has developed unevenly. Biology, longevity research, biotechnology, and medicine already have […]
AI Meritocracy in Research Funding: A Fairer Way to Finance Science
Research funding determines which questions scientists can investigate, which laboratories survive, and which discoveries reach society. Yet the conventional grant system often allocates money through a small number of committees […]
Web3 Tools for Open-Access Publishing: Building a More Transparent Scientific Record
Scientific publishing was created to distribute knowledge, but much of the modern system restricts access through subscription paywalls, expensive article-processing charges, slow peer review, and centralized editorial control. Researchers may […]
Avoiding Predatory Scientific Publishers: A Practical Guide for Researchers
Publishing research should make scientific work more visible, credible, and useful. Unfortunately, some publishers exploit researchers by presenting themselves as legitimate academic journals while providing little or no genuine peer […]
Blockchain Grants for Independent Researchers: How Decentralized Science Funding Works
Independent researchers often face a structural funding problem: they may have strong ideas, technical expertise, and publishable results but lack the university affiliation, administrative support, preliminary data, or professional network […]
How decentralized science funding works
Decentralized science funding, or DeSci funding, uses open online communities, blockchains and programmable governance to finance research outside—or alongside—traditional universities, government agencies and venture-capital firms. DeSci is broader than funding: […]
