ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE FUTURES TURN: an anticipatory infrastructure for qualitative methods

In this article, I focus on artificial intelligence (AI) in a social science futures research agenda. This agenda is proposed in response to a contemporary context where global future uncertainties are generating a futures knowledge market increasingly populated by the promise of faster and scaled-up AI foresight. Acknowledging the possibilities offered by technological and interactional focuses in developing AI methods, I turn to reflexively discuss the “side effects” of using AI methods in qualitative futures-…

How to verify without trusting this page

Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0928 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.
