Project: From Publishing Models to Cognitive Network-How Blockchain and AI Redefines Academic System?
The are two scenarios: power transition (2030-2050) and technological transformation (2030-2200).
In first scenario,traditional publishing restrictions led to the Open Access movement, but publishers soon created a new monopoly through high APCs, exposing structural power issues. Blockchain and AI offer hope for a decentralized, co-governed, and transparent publishing future. However, change faces inertia, capital resistance, and technical barriers. Learning from history and stakeholder motives may reveal realistic paths-"Parasitic transformation" .
The second scenario explores the implications of embodied intelligence and brain-computer interfaces for academia, society, and ethics in 200 years.
