A thought keeps occurring to me throughout this project so far:
"What happens to declassified data when the public suddenly has tools powerful enough to actually understand it?"
For instance, these types of record releases are not new - the US Government has been declassifying and releasing records since its inception. What IS new is the average person's ability to parse, synthesize, and make connections that may not have been previously possible by a single human - particularly in tandem with frontier AI that can complete work that before would have required a specialized research team.
A single file within 161 total file release could contain upwards of 300 different pages. All of those pages are more or less loosely in a logical order - but not necessarily. The released records follow the same archival conventions that are used internally by the government. It is by its very nature, "not for public consumption." It is not made to be publicly comprehensible. If you aren't familiar with those systems, you're cooked.
What access to AI systems allows us to do is take those previously muddy, incomprehensible (but very valuable!) releases and make them legible to the average person.
If then, this data becomes comprehensible to more people, we now have even more humans thinking about the very strange problems that may lie buried deep inside - maybe some of those humans will make a connection that was missed the first time? What if that previously missed connection leads to a groundbreaking discovery?
Either way, this is bigger than UFO/UAP documents. It applies to any public data that has been available IN THEORY but inaccessible in practice.
Happy building!
