Video Briefing
The Signal: Authorship Panic
A video briefing on authorship, AI-assisted research content, statistical resemblance, provenance, and the signal lost when detection replaces reading.
Primary Function
Authorship, provenance, and novelty
Volume XII examines what is lost when institutions use statistical resemblance to infer the authorship or value of AI-assisted research content. It separates surface similarity from provenance, authorship, novelty, evidence, and responsibility, then develops the Signal Protocol and a novelty ledger for evaluating work whose destination emerged through human-machine inquiry.
Read this volume from the page placed before a detector to a research culture that preserves its signal by evaluating provenance, novelty, reasoning, evidence, reproducibility, utility, and responsibility as distinct coordinates.
