Automated Source Verification

Ideal

a tool to verify truth: actors posting thoroughly vetted and unbiased news

much in the same paralleled way a web-crawler can seek passwords on the Internet that have been publicly acknowledged as insecure and exposed

then notify the end-user to change said password.

a web crawler could seek recently published knowledge on the Internet related to any one of the sourced publications in the project-base.

if a conflicting match is found, the project team is notified of the conflicting understandings and the design choice(s) built upon that publication are called into question for review and revision.

natural language processing and machine learning could provide a working solution in the automation of referencing and sourcing claims through the existing decentralized-privatized Internet.

Methodology

Solution

Sourced publications are provided as rationale for each design choice made -- to anyone a replicated understanding

Design Choice 1 reflects Publication A.

Publication B contradicts A and rules A incorrect.

Publication A is archived and Publication B is sourced in the project-base; invoking a new design choice to be made for Design Choice 1.

Design Choice 1 is archived and Design Choice 2 is sourced in the project-base.

Outcomes are intuitive, quantifiable, foreseeable, and logical.

Publication is a format to store mutable knowledge at a timestamped point in time.

Once new understandings are discovered, if proven invalid, the dated publication becomes archived as defected knowledge; no longer holding credibility or value.
