Claim

Nikolai Fedorov advocated universal physical resurrection of the dead through future science and technology.

Type HISTORICAL · truth-evaluable: yes · status at snapshot: ACTIVE · created seq 5378

Referenced 181 times: checked 3, looked up by assistants 0, viewed 103, shared 75. A count of attention, not evidence.

Revises The Russian cosmist Nikolai Fedorov argued for creating ancestor simulations and digitally resurrecting everyone who has ever lived. · reason: The podcast explicitly presents simulations and digital resurrection as a modern gloss. The historical source describes Fedorov's proposed common task as physical resurrection.

How the number was reached

Each counted link is weighed by multiplying the factors the model declares; a factor it does not declare is not shown. Every factor name below links to what that number means.

prior 0.50 → log-odds 0.000000 + 3.600000 (the counted weights) = 3.600000 → probability 0.9734

Under neighbouring settings of the same model: 0.9255 to 0.9908, a spread of 0.0653.

Half-even rounding, six places for weights and four for the probability. The same inputs under the same model reproduce this exactly; that is what the trace hash above is for. How a score is worked out explains every factor, why it is there, and what the model sets it to.

None.

Qualifications

The encyclopedia describes Fedorov’s project as universal physical resurrection through future science and technology, not creating ancestor simulations or digitally resurrecting people.

From Nikolai Fedorovich Fedorov Read 2026-09-28 Relevance DIRECT Steps 0 Counted

This directly supports Fedorov’s resurrection theme while narrowing the claim’s digital-simulation characterization; the source is a secondary encyclopedia account.

Suppressed as dependent

None.

Inferences

Concluded from

None.

Used as a premise in

None.

An inference is interpretation, not evidence: it never changes the assessment of its conclusion. Each premise is a claim with its own evidence.

Threads

None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.

Claim edges

None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.
