USE CASES

Where this instrument fits.

  • Reduce hype in frontier claims
  • Prepare hostile peer-review notes
  • Compare evidence strength against mechanism clarity
  • Define next evidence needed
INPUTS

Required input fields.

  • Claim (optional)
  • Domain (required): Physics, AI/frontier model, Quantum information, Aerospace, ...
  • Mechanism clarity (required): Clear mechanism, Partial mechanism, Unclear mechanism
  • Evidence type (required): Theoretical only, Simulation, Controlled experiment, Replicated evidence
  • Falsifiability (required): Clear falsification test, Partial, Weak or unclear
  • Competing explanations (required): Addressed, Partially addressed, Ignored

Data handling: this interface uses the L2ET protected same-origin instrument engine. Do not enter confidential, regulated, privileged, incident, medical or sensitive operational data.

METHOD

Falsification Matrix logic.

Scores evidence robustness, mechanism clarity, falsifiability and competing-explanation handling to classify speculative, plausible or review-ready claims.

Assumptions

  • The result is epistemic triage.
  • Novel claims may be valuable even when immature.
  • Domain expertise is required for final judgment.
INTERACTIVE INSTRUMENT
