provability

Striving toward, not retroactive detection of deepfakes & other fake evidence, but prospective, pro-active measures (instrumenting data) to increase PROVABILITY -- that is, to

approach asymptotically

the ability eventually to prove

that content (especially time-series data like video, audio, or scientific data)

was created at the time & place claimed,

helping multiple witnesses to corroborate one another's accounts if they so choose,

while maintaining their privacy.

I'm committed to nonprofit, open-source, grassroots, and decentralized solution design, because, in general, one cannot expect to maximize more than one parameter at a time, and truth is the parameter I am trying to maximize. It would be nice to be paid to work on something I care this deeply about, but I am not sure how to fund a properly decentralized design effort. Donations, perhaps? Maybe if I could enforce that all donations are anonymous. I don't want a "tail wags the dog" situation...
