Experiments

From a question to documented learning.

An experiment is a way to understand what can reasonably be learned about a practical use of AI. It starts with a clear question and ends with evidence, limitations and documentation that can be shared.

In progress · 15 September 2026

Current experiment

The experiment is ongoing. The observation is preliminary, and quantitative results are not yet available.

Next

What we are building next

These are next directions, not yet ongoing experiments or completed projects.

Method

Five stages. One traceable chain.

Each stage constrains the next. The result is not a polished demo but an understandable account of what happened.

  1. 01 · QUESTION

    A practical question

    Define one person, task or situation in which a practical use of AI needs to be understood better.

  2. 02 · SCOPE

    Scope

    Record the users, material, time, responsibilities, sign of success and what the experiment will not test.

  3. 03 · BUILD / TEST

    Build and test

    Make the smallest useful implementation. Keep people in control and record exceptions during the work.

  4. 04 · EVIDENCE

    Evidence

    Collect observations, failures, limitations and alternative explanations. Do not fill gaps with assumptions.

  5. 05 · DOCUMENT / SHARE

    Document and share

    Separate observation, interpretation and open questions. Publish only what the evidence supports.

Evidence boundary

Documentation also states what we do not know.

A future experiment note should show at least the question, scope, date, observation, limitation and publication responsibility.

We publish what we can support.

A single experiment describes a bounded result. We also document limitations and open questions, and do not generalise beyond the available evidence.
