An interactive, AI-assisted web tool that explores a toy model of societal health.
It also serves as a case study in reproducibility and validation using the Aurora Workflow Orchestration (AWO) and Continuous Research Integration (CRI).
The conceptual model is based on a scalar progress function:
P(t) = (R ×ばつ E ×ばつ C)^α ÷ (I ×ばつ D)^β
where:
- Fairness of Resources (R) — distribution of food, housing, income, healthcare
- Education Quality (E) — access to quality education and critical thinking
- Social Trust (C) — cooperation and trust among people
- Government Instability (I) — higher = more chaotic/corrupt institutions
- Misinformation (D) — higher = more fake news and propaganda
- α, β — exponents tuning nonlinear sensitivity
Note: The current web version implements a simplified scoring system (linear averages of positives and negatives). The full equation is reserved for future iterations.
This deliberate imperfection demonstrates how AI-assisted work can be logged, validated, and iteratively improved.
- Interactive sliders for the five key drivers
- Instant feedback on societal status (thriving, struggling, or collapsing)
- Historical presets (Ancient Rome at Peak, Great Depression USA)
- Designed as a portfolio-grade example of transparent AI+human orchestration

Prototype — live at wrightsocietalmodel.com.
Development is ongoing, with future work focusing on equation fidelity, dataset integration, and reproducibility testing under AWO/CRI.
This simulator follows Waveframe Labs’ principles of transparent scientific modeling.
While not a full AWO-compliant pipeline, all assumptions are declared explicitly, the model specification is versioned, and future iterations will incorporate formal validation and CRI-based testing.
