Smeldr AI clarifies actor classification, distinguishing human actions

Smeldr, a self-hosting AI project, has updated its core to version 1.121.0 to address how it categorizes actors. Previously, any untagged actor was automatically classified as human, leading to misattributions of actions. The new version distinguishes between administrator-vouched actions and all other unclassified actions, ensuring that only explicitly verified human actions are labeled as such. AI

IMPACT This update improves the accuracy of AI actor classification, enhancing transparency in self-hosted AI systems.

RANK_REASON This is a software update for a specific AI project, not a frontier release, significant industry move, or academic research.

    A history that says "a person did this" when nothing said so is worse than no history. Until core v1.121.0, Smeldr recorded every untagged actor as human, so every agent action looked like a person's. Now human means an administrator vouched for it. Everything else is unclassifie…
