Founded by Richard Foster-Fletcher, it publishes restrained, citable records on how AI changes organisational judgement, governance, reporting, and deployment. The archive is built to be read carefully, cited properly, and checked against its stated evidence standard.

Methodology locked in, 6 July 2026
The committed prompt set and scoring criteria for a comparative study of how different AI setups respond to strategic decisions from senior leaders. Five scenarios run through three setups each, producing fifteen answers scored blind on whether they take a clear position, add fresh insight, and serve as material a senior leader could debate. The methodology was locked before any outputs were generated.

A public-record study of how large organisations require, incentivise, and formalise AI engagement through mandates, incentives, training, workflow integration, and board-level expectation.

A review of the public record revealing the significant corporate disclosure gap regarding exactly how senior executives at large organisations access AI capabilities.
Working paper
Published July 2026
A reading of nine public frameworks that guide boards and audit leaders on AI oversight. None require anyone to know about the organisation-authored instruction that controls what the AI produces: who wrote it, when it was last changed, or how it affects answers. The phrase "system prompt" does not appear in any document reviewed.
Working paper
Published July 2026
A documentary reading of seven enterprise AI deployments showing that public administration and compliance documentation does not recognise executive rank as a query-time basis for varying the governed layer.
Working paper
Published July 2026
A reading of the public terms for seven enterprise AI services. Across all seven vendors, the contracts make the customer responsible for AI output. The same contracts describe controls that affect that output: filters, system instructions, safety features, retrieval rules, data masking, and classifiers. The clauses that assign responsibility do not mention those controls.
Existing published inquiry and examination URLs remain in place. Where a record first appeared under an earlier archive section, that original address is preserved and still serves as the canonical public citation point.
The record should stay stronger than the narrative built on top of it.
