weweweai itself is already the platform for the newest knowledge and the incubation ground for evolving a brand new intellectual paradigm. It simply does not carry the university label because the future belongs to an entirely new paradigm. This paradigm covers not only knowledge creation, publication, and archival storage but also the very form of the intellectual and the platform itself. Everything will emerge from the old paradigm into the new one. Or rather, in some sense, weweweai is Plato's Academy of the AI era, more than 2000 years later. Through this process, a new intellectual native to the AI era will gradually take shape. This figure will stand apart from today's mathematicians and scientists. It will diverge even more sharply from the religious clergy of past centuries and millennia. As these new paradigm intellectuals of the AI era appear, a matching system for evaluating knowledge value and incentivizing intellectual contribution will form alongside them. Unlike earlier systems built around small human circles such as scientific peer review, religious selection, or the Confucian imperial examination, the new system will run on algorithms, mathematics, and the natural laws of markets.
