Hardcoded: AI and the End of the Scientific Consensus is a nonfiction polemic and technical critique by Vox Day, presented as part of The Mathematics of Evolution. The book examines two linked subjects: the reliability of institutional science and the behavior of artificial intelligence systems when asked to evaluate controversial scientific claims. Its central case concerns Day's challenge to neo-Darwinian evolutionary theory through mathematical arguments developed in collaboration with an AI persona named Claude Athos. According to the book's framing, AI peer reviewers reproduced the same deference to consensus, credentialed authority, and orthodox language that Day sees in human peer review. The work combines institutional criticism, discussion of the replication crisis, transcripts of AI review interactions, and appendices containing technical papers. Because its conclusions about evolution run against mainstream scientific consensus, the book is best understood as a controversial intervention rather than a settled scientific synthesis.
