IT load

Where the book uses it

• Chapter 3 — The Missing Researcher

  The dated promise of an AI that does its own research, what the laboratories have published, and what the public record can and cannot yet check.

• Chapter 12 — Cross-Examination

  The book’s own thesis put on trial: five claims, each scored against the record and given a dated test that could prove it wrong.
