YES

I will resolve this YES if, after the AI letter market resolves, someone who bet on the market claims that they had inside knowledge meeting the following criteria:

  • It matches what actually happened (e.g., if they claim they had inside knowledge that a certain Turing Award winner would sign the letter, that awardee's signature must actually be on the letter).

  • Their bets back up their claim to inside knowledge (i.e., they bet on the correct position and made large/very confident bets). Any user who holds more than 10,000 shares of the correct position (except bots) would count for this, and others would be considered on a case-by-case basis, depending on whether I think their bets are indicative of sufficiently high confidence to result from inside info.

  • They can produce convincing evidence, beyond just their bets, that they had knowledge of how the market would resolve that wasn't available to the public. This only counts if the market resolves in a reasonable way, not if their inside knowledge was, "I knew the creator was going to resolve it in a ridiculous way".

If this market resolves YES, but I find out that the claim was fabricated (and there is no other credible claim), I will ask admins to re-resolve it to NO. If no evidence comes out by the close date, I will resolve it NO, but I may ask for a re-resolution if evidence for YES is produced afterward (I would have a higher standard for how convincing this evidence has to be, though).

There seem to have been at least four users with inside information (Hyperion, dmayhem93, mkualquiera, and firstuserhere). In particular, Hyperion's claim has been corroborated by dmayhem93 on Discord.

predictedNO

Why?

@Mira @KatjaGrace @MayMeta @dmayhem93 @hyperion @finnhambly @mkualquiera @quinesweeper

Tagging the biggest YES traders to see if any had inside knowledge.

@JosephNoonan i was outside when I bought, so I wasn't insider trading

@JosephNoonan I have no stake in this market and decline to answer.

@JosephNoonan I had inside knowledge but didn't trade on it—I waited until it was made public

@firstuserhere, why did you sell all your shares?

predictedYES

@JosephNoonan I don't think they have claimed to have insider knowledge.

@JacyAnthis But I think it is very likely that they did

predictedYES

@JosephNoonan Sure, but this market is about "...someone who bet on the market claims that they had inside knowledge meeting the following criteria..."

@JacyAnthis other than my trades, @JosephNoonan, i dont think i can present anything else.. so i sold my shares at a loss as per "convincing evidence, beyond just their bets"

@firstuserhere note however that @hyperion's comments on discord resolve this market yes anyway

@firstuserhere Did he have any comments where he gave evidence for it aside from his trades? I don't require evidence that's super strong (it doesn't take much to convince me given the trades), but I need something to meet the third bullet point.

@JosephNoonan
quote-
"I saw the letter, list of signees, and release date early"

OK, so the answer to this is obviously yes, but we technically haven't met the resolution criteria yet. @firstuserhere, what inside info did you have, and can you provide a piece of evidence that you had it other than your trades?
