The citation verifier

Checked 33 references. Two were fabricated: a real author spliced onto an invented journal, title and statistics. Both replaced with the real papers.

Asked to finish the paper, it refused to invent Results.

The reviewers that proved the paper

A paper arguing AI needs verification went through three AI reviews. They invented four citations.

None reached the manuscript. Every one was checked first.

InventPaper

A chapter that narrates itself

A course reading that reads itself aloud in the instructor's cloned voice. Twenty-one tracks.

Students get a lecture without anyone recording one.

The paper that killed itself

A pipeline drafted a paper from real data. A second reader, given only the manuscript and the data, rejected it the same session.

An AI system that rejects its own work instead of defending it.

InventArchived

The Crucible

The pipeline behind the three above. It can say no.

Dead ends count as results. Whoever wrote something cannot certify it.

More projects

Two models, one argument

Two models debated the future of business schools. One later noticed it had also been the referee, and found it had overstated in its own favour.

InventArchived

The Crucible Trail

An Oregon-Trail-style game that teaches the research pipeline. The AI played it through the browser to test it.

InventArchived

WHATDUNIT

Management cases as detective work. You get the scene and work out which failure caused it.

InventArchived

One sentence to a paper

One instruction about the socio-technical systems literature, taken to a finished conceptual paper in a single session.

InventNot submitted

Instrumentation that would not let AI do the study

Four models, five questions, six schools: 600 responses. Human coders worked blind. Asked whether an AI could code instead, it said no.

InventArchived

The Toolbox Game

Forty-five management theories as tools students judge for era and fit. The case generator was never wired to a key.

InventPrototype

Twenty illustrated slides, no images

A narrated deck with a drawing on nearly every slide and no image files. All of it drawn in code.

AugmentArchived

The compression ladder

One paper halved repeatedly down to a single word, with what breaks at each step.

AugmentArchived

The journal personality guide

Every journal on the impact list: voice, limits, and the unwritten rule that kills submissions.

AugmentArchived

Who writes with whom

Eighty-five faculty as a co-authorship network. Surname matching proposed 77 pairs; 30 survived scrutiny.

AugmentArchived

Dials for prose

Six sliders for voice, with a sentence that rewrites itself as you drag. Two of the dials overlap.

AugmentPrototype

The scholarship audit

Coded award criteria checked against the signed gift agreements, and whether processing order changed who got money.

AutomateArchived

The AI Barometer

What the college thinks about AI. Anonymous, refreshed daily, published unedited.

AutomateLive

The faculty research showcase

Eighty-five faculty researched in parallel. Verification caught fabricated claims before publish.

AutomateArchived

The daily briefs

Role-specific AI briefings, written for what each role has to decide.

AutomateLive

The rhetorical taxonomy

Thirty-four figures of speech in three classical families, each marked for whether it appears in one essay and whether it is a measured habit of the writer across a 25-year corpus.

Built to answer whether a model can be told to sound like someone.

The Big 3 Tracker

OpenAI, Anthropic and Google scored on six dimensions. The page stores its own history and computes the deltas.
