The Personal Story Behind AI Internet-Meritocracy Project in 2025

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

I am Victor Porton, the creator of this site and of World Science DAO. Personal Story.

Story: I converted into the Baptist variant of Christian faith 8 Aug 1995, when I was 15 year old. Since that day, the relatives started to shout at me “sectarian” (so, in Russia are called despised and hated for being small smaller religious groups) and bully me increasingly. I have no idea, how they determined the day of my conversion: I have visited a Baptist church before conversion, too, but they didn’t bully me before that day.

Moreover, I decided that I will better follow Christian commandments, if I will tell everybody that I am a Protestant. It uncovered that most Russians didn’t understand this word, so I started to present myself as a “sectarian” and religious fanatic to everybody. Having started this behavior, I expected death from hunger, because so called sectarians are hated in Russia.

Meanwhile bullying me by my mother increased I was beaten by the head by a frying pan 3 or 4 times. It didn’t fit into my religion that I become mad (and violate Christian morality being mad) after beating, because most Baptists believe that mind is located in soul or spirit rather than in brain. This and other contradictions and tensions caused me to start thinking about an “upgrade” to my religion.

When being the first year university student, I started to think how to “algebraize” general topology (an important topic in mathematics). When having been (illegally) sent by the mother out of the house, I chewed some grass, drank from a puddle, and by coincidence straight after that have finished my first scientific discovery – what I now call funcoids. “I’ve made a trillion dollars worth discovery and now will die from hunger. Mankind does not receive this trillion dollars gift, because it is not worth it,” thought I.

The mother allowed me to return to the home and gave me very scarce food, so I survived. I didn’t die because of my confusion regarding religion: I realized that I don’t know what to do and what to say, and therefore didn’t say that I am a sectarian.

Meanwhile, I kept doing my research of funcoids and related subjects and in 2019 also discovered ordered semigroup actions and ordered semicategory actions (OSA). Wonderfully, nobody discovered OSA before, despite to discoverer them it’s enough put three words in order. (There was a very old article mentioning ordered semigroup actions, but that does not count, because it is with an error.) That’s not a trillion, but half of world economy.

I left the university with the following reasoning: I have trouble with what I say, because I am trying to tell the truth only, I am trapped into my situation. My strive for keeping me alive has the adverse effect, because people hate me for saying that. I need to use humility; in other worlds, I need to surrender (to the Russian nation) in my fight for survival, then I could survive. Not to fight for survival, I decided not to try earning money and so stop getting a science degree. I left the university without any degree.

I put my discoveries into some texts (the main one almost 500 pages long) and found that I cannot publish it, because I don’t know how to split it into parts for publication in math journals. I can’t publish it in a book form, too, because of no science degree.

Meanwhile, due to deficiencies (contradictions, inconsistencies) of my religion, I invented a new religion, that is logically consistent and doesn’t contradict to scientific knowledge (however frightening for those who don’t help me).

Thus funcoids/OSA is a “scientific covery” – a discovery that is put online can’t be officially published (so, mostly lost topic for mankind, even if rediscovered). I started to think, how to save the world from coveries.

• My first idea (“Future Salaries“) was to use prediction markets to pay scientists by money “transferred from the future”. So, we would hire Google to do such predictions. After some time, I asked myself what Google should do to determine article’s score, and the answer was “ask Google”. It makes no sense for Google to decide something by asking itself, so the idea appeared to be wrong.
• My next attempt (Salaries Science, later renamed to Grants Science, not to be abbreviated as SS) is a tricky blockchain algorithm, which because of its complexity I didn’t find time to implement. Maybe, it will be implemented in the future, it is generally a good idea.
• And finally I invented AI Internet-Meritocracy (AIIM), that I was able to implement in just 23 days and am working on advancing it now. The idea of AIIS is to ask an AI for a user what portion of the global GDP he/she is worth, and then pay them the proportional share of funds.

Now, regarding “coveries”: We have a first-year university student possibly (if the rediscovery of funcoids and OSA would happen) breaking the entire world economy by mistake. “Coveries” is a systemic failure. All science ministries in all world governments need to be fired (or adapt not to follow old, broken way), because they allowed coveries by making a system that depends on personal stories.
