They are also among the most pessimistic about AI’s economic impact. More than half said they were convinced job losses would be worse than in a normal recession. The findings are the

How to verify without trusting this page

Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0073 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
