aeon-paper-pick

One paper per day. Not a digest — one pick, with a short brief that lets the reader decide whether to invest the next hour.

How the pick works

1. Fetch last 24h of HF Papers (https://huggingface.co/papers).
2. Drop pure benchmark-chasing (new SOTA on existing leaderboard, no method change), incremental scaling reports, and position papers without empirical claims.
3. Score survivors on novelty of method/framing, falsifiability of central claim, reproducibility signal (code + weights + data), and cross-discipline applicability.
4. Pick the highest scoring. Tie-break: sharper falsifiable claim.
