Proprietary models/platforms may block the replicability part. However, reliability and robustness are a measurement validity problem; social scientists are trying to find a consensus on it. I will be presenting on this issue tomorrow, and my work is auditing the instruments we use to audit models.

New Pew data captures striking divergence in U.S. favorability shifts (2024-2025): While 16 countries register significant declines—notably Mexico (-32pts) and Sweden (-28pts)—Turkey moves against the tide with a 7pt gain (18%→25%). Trump effect? Full report: pewrsr.ch/4kFqPH0
