PITANJE
Why is housing unaffordable in our cities?
Soba javnog zapisa. Njene kartice su tvrdnje koje su ljudi izneli u javnoj diskusiji; gde je svaka izrečena, navedeno je u zbirci, pod tom tvrdnjom. Panel jezičkih modela razjasnio je kartice i ocenio parove: ova mapa je način na koji modeli strukturiraju ono što javnost govori, a ne ono što je grupa ljudi utvrdila. Računa se samo sa drugim sobama javnog zapisa. Srodno istraživanje: recite modelu ko je, i njegovi uzročni sudovi jedva da se promene, zato ovaj panel sudi kao on sam, bez persona.
