Polybius: Automated authoritarian consolidation index powered by Claude
- iamnothere 9mo agoI don’t have a strong opinion on the specific methodology or framing, but this is an interesting model. Since the source is available, you could easily set up a similar tracker with different framing or model sources. I think AI is overhyped, but this is an interesting application for it. This automates a fuzzy, tedious task where precision isn’t too critical and frequent updates are potentially useful. Activist orgs with a particular goal or anti-goal could use this to track progress with slightly more impartiality. A meta organization that manages several causes could use multiple dashboards to see what areas are most in need of attention. All without relying on a bored/biased/expensive human to constantly plug in data.
