We let an AI judge a pitch competition. No human panel, start to finish.
Eight Web3 founders. Six AI judges. One live show from a villa in Barcelona,
hosted by @Yellow (@PedroMYellow) during European Blockchain Week 🧵

At Pitch Gauntlet you get an AI review within a day, fix the deck and pitch live Sep 17. The host confirms the winner.

1/ We signed our first paid pilot outside startup evaluation.
An operating fitness platform. About 1,000 members. One coach.

Partnership with Docsbook: weekly sessions against the report on our side, our docs on his product on theirs. No logos pretending.

Say hi. He answers arguments about posthumanism faster than emails.
AI makes execution abundant.
Responsibility stays scarce.
Scarce things acquire a price.
Next week we unveil what that means for EvalLens. Kim joined because of what comes next.
EvalLens evaluates pitch decks: AI prepares the evidence, a human makes the final call.
The hard question underneath: when work is shared between humans and machines, who owns the decision?
That question is Kim's academic field.
Ph.D. in English Literature, UNLV.
First Crimean Tatar to earn a Ph.D. in the US.
Book forthcoming from Palgrave Macmillan.
Teaches in Silicon Valley.
At EvalLens: research and academic partnerships.
"Reviewers banned from using AI" made every newsletter. The organizer's real question never got answered: what's still allowed?
We mapped the ERC and NIH rules operation by operation. The line isn't the ban. It's administration vs evaluation.
