The National Science Foundation Division of Computer and Network Systems awarded the National Academy of Sciences $200,000 on October 1, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program to produce a publicly available, peer-reviewed issue paper examining how institutions maintain trustworthy and resilient processes for evaluating and navigating information as machine-generated content becomes abundant. The project convenes experts in artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, information science, research evaluation, and governance to analyze existing evaluation, review, curation, cybersecurity, and trust mechanisms. The analysis characterizes threat models including impersonation, provenance uncertainty, automated spam, and gaming of reputation and review systems, and examines mechanisms for provenance, authentication, identity, and reputation management. The project frames the challenge as one of institutional and cyber resilience rather than simply detecting machine-written text, and compares pressures and workable responses across scientific publishing, government agencies, online platforms, knowledge repositories, and creative marketplaces. The National Academies Press will publish the individually authored, peer-reviewed issue paper. Place of performance is Washington, DC. The period of performance runs from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027.
