Independent fieldwork publication

Work thatstays connected.

Practical fieldwork on how AI-assisted research, decisions, evidence and systems carry understanding forward as the work changes.

Shiftby.pro is an independent fieldwork publication by Ananda Krishna Marri about AI-assisted knowledge continuity, semantic content engineering and evidence-bounded systems. Its current project, Inspiral, explores how sources, decisions, context, limitations and human authority can survive between continuing AI-assisted tasks.

Inspiral

Exploring continuity of governed knowledge, context and meaning across AI-assisted work.

Current state: Active

AI Security Assurance

Repository-grounded experiments in assurance, testing and accountable AI engineering.

Current state: In progress

Evidence before
certainty.

Current state is distinguished from historical rationale. Evidence strength is made visible. Limitations are retained. AI assists; humans retain publication authority.

01

Evidence

From sources, code, runs and decisions.

02

Bounded claims

What the evidence supports—and what it doesn’t.

03

Fieldwork

Context, decisions, trade-offs and intent in the work.

04

Public learning

Published for others to build on, challenge and extend.
