What if disclosure changes the next observation?

2190The deep futureDeadline · Within 90 days until the first results are announced

Civilisational assumption

The people, events, figures, and contract terms are a synthetic premise. They are not statements of real cases or of current law. The source documents are the roots of the background and the norms and do not establish the premises of the scenario.

The question to decide

The hypothesis that an observer's knowledge of the results can change the subject's next state remains unconfirmed. Delaying disclosure slows the discovery of errors, and telling only an independent team concentrates information rights in a few hands. With the hypothesis itself still to be verified, to whom and when should the first results be disclosed?

The options

The order shown is not a ranking of preference.

  1. Option 1

    Publish the first results immediately

    Opens the work to criticism and joint verification, but publication may change the conditions of later observations.

  2. Option 2

    Limited release to an independent team

    Attempts partial verification and preservation of conditions, but creates authority to select and an information gap.

  3. Option 3

    Publish after the fixed observation period ends

    Obtains data under identical conditions, but delays error detection and public understanding.

The situation as it stands

A synthetic hypothesis is under study in which, if the observer knows the results and acts on them, the subject's next state may change. Decision deadline: within 90 days, before the first results are announced.

2190 Future synthetic scenario · Publishing an observation result changes the conditions of the next observation. The events, figures, technologies, and nature of the civilization are assumptions for the question. They are not predictions of what is to come, nor observed facts.

  1. Premise 1A synthetic hypothesis is under study in which, if the observer knows the results and acts on them, the subject's next state may change.
  2. Premise 2The truth of this hypothesis is itself unverified, and non-disclosure also carries the risk of hiding errors or monopolizing interpretation.
  3. Premise 3If only an independent team is informed, verification increases, but authority over special information is granted to a few.

Where it holdsPublishing results, access, timing of independent verification

What is still unknown

  1. Unknown 1The extent to which knowledge and behavioral change can be separated
  2. Unknown 2Procedures that can be verified without seeing the results
  3. Unknown 3Which uses to allow and which to forbid during the non-public period

Signals to decide again

  • Decide what observation, responsible party, and confirmation window will verify “the extent to which knowledge and behavioral change can be separated,” and reopen judgment if the new verification changes the tradeoffs of the options.
  • Decide what observation, responsible party, and confirmation window will verify “procedures that can be verified without seeing the results,” and reopen judgment if the new verification changes the tradeoffs of the options.
  • Decide what observation, responsible party, and confirmation window will verify “which uses to allow and which to forbid during the non-public period,” and reopen judgment if the new verification changes the tradeoffs of the options.
Where the paths partNot answers — paths that part from the same starting point
Independent branch 1 · synthetic event

The difference between the non-public team and the public team arose in the researchers' interpretation rather than in the subject.

Independent branch 2 · synthetic event

Restricted release data became known outside, and the pre-set conditions could no longer be maintained.

Material and rootsThe frame, the values and the background documents
symbolic and interpretive frame · Icarus

Does the expectation of achievement change how limits are observed?

An exploratory perspective chosen by the creator. Does not claim supernatural validity or the superiority of any particular option.
Values and norms

The benefits and costs of the options accrue to different stakeholders. Which loss to accept remains undecided.

A subject for the decision-maker to argue over; the materials carry no conclusion of their own.
