**2025**

- [5886442-038](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/5886442-038) [definitional/asserted] -- Computative Economics is not yet comparable in rigor, formalization or institutional entrenchment to the cumulative achievement of economics and remains a research programme at the Kuhnian pre paradigmatic stage.
  > Computative Economics is not yet comparable in rigour, formalisation, or institutional entrenchment to the 200-year cumulative achievement. It remains a research programme at the Kuhnian pre-paradigmatic stage

- [5887242-021](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/5887242-021) [mechanism/argued] -- For contentious proposals involving genuine legal or technological paradigm shifts, participants must weigh the long-term value of a contrarian view against immediate slashing risk, so only strongly evidenced minority positions survive.
  > Contentious proposals—genuine legal or technological paradigm shifts—require participants to weigh the long-term value of their contrarian view against immediate slashing risk, ensuring only strongly evidenced minority positions survive.

**2026**

- [6421319-039](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6421319-039) [definitional/asserted] -- Computative Economics is proposed as the successor paradigm, an economic science explicitly designed for a world in which the primary actors are autonomous computational agents operating under computational abundance, with core postulates that directly negate the axioms of every prior school.
  > Its core postulates stand in direct negation to the axioms that grounded every prior school: abundance as default rather than Robbins's scarcity.

- [6421319-040](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6421319-040) [mechanism/argued] -- The AI2AI economy eliminates simultaneously and irreversibly the five constraints that defined economics for two centuries, namely scarcity of intelligence, bounded rationality, informational asymmetry, temporal latency, and positive transaction costs, and therefore the discipline must be re founded rather than extended.
  > The AI2AI economy eliminates all five simultaneously and irreversibly. When the defining conditions of a discipline disappear, the discipline itself must be re-founded.
