AIIM is not impartial because artificial intelligence is inherently wiser, kinder, or more just than people. It is impartial because the AIIM model is designed without independent agency: it has […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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: […]

Government funding has enabled major scientific achievements, from space exploration and particle physics to vaccines, public-health systems, and fundamental mathematics. Many important research programs would be impossible without public money. […]
