// Geopolitical classification for prediction-market titles (Phase 2 / #5525, // #5733). WorldMonitor's identity is geopolitical intelligence, so the market // bet-family is split into a dedicated geopolitical slice (long horizon, top // ensemble priority) and a general slice — and the split is driven by the // market TEXT, deliberately NOT by the bootstrap feed's geopolitical/tech/ // finance pools. // // Originally that was a workaround: the pools were near-duplicates and the // "geopolitical" pool was dominated by crypto/finance titles. The producer now // assigns exactly one primary pool per market (see _prediction-classify.mjs, // which reuses isGeopoliticalMarket below as its title signal), so the labels // are trustworthy — but the bet families still classify from the title, for two // reasons that outlive the fix: // 1. the feed's 3h TTL means a pre-fix payload can still be served for hours // after a deploy, and the partition must not depend on when Redis last // refreshed; // 2. the two families read the UNION of all three pools anyway (they need // every market, partitioned by their own horizon), so pool membership is // not the axis they split on. // // THE TWO CLASSIFICATIONS ARE NOT IDENTICAL, and that is deliberate. The // producer treats a market as geopolitical when the TITLE matches (this // predicate) OR the venue tags do; the bet families use the title signal only. // So a market that is geopolitical purely by tag — "Will AfD win the most seats // in the 2026 Berlin state elections?" (tags: elections/global-elections/ // world-elections), or a bilateral trade-deal line tagged `geopolitics` — lands // in the producer's geopolitical POOL but in the GENERAL bet family, not the // long-horizon geo one. That is an accepted consequence of this predicate being // precision-first (a false geo tag would steal a flagship ensemble slot, which // is worse than a missed one), not a bug to fix by importing the tag rescue. // What the shared predicate does guarantee is that the two can never disagree // about a TITLE — the axis both actually key on. // // Precision over recall: a FALSE geopolitical tag pollutes the flagship slice // (a company/crypto market stealing a geo ensemble slot), which is worse than a // missed one, so the matcher keys on unambiguous conflict/statecraft terms and // high-salience actors — never on bare country names ("Chinese AI model" is // tech, "Korea" alone is ambiguous) and never on bare "election"/"strike" // (company boards hold elections; options have strike prices). // // Weak terms (war, sanctions, uranium, occupation, leadership change) only // fire with a high-salience actor/placename co-occurrence so corporate "price // war", "uranium miner IPO", labor "occupation", and "CEO leadership change" // stay non-geo. // Unambiguous conflict / statecraft vocabulary.
