Question 1

What is the PSI Chordis Foundation?

Accepted Answer

PSI Chordis is the research and verification arm of North South Industries. It tests technical claims made by the company's brands under pre-registered protocols and publishes every result, including the ones that fail. It also studies what changes in long-standing mathematical problems when zero is treated as an axiom rather than a given.

Question 2

Did North South Industries solve the Millennium Prize problems?

Accepted Answer

No. Earlier statements to that effect are withdrawn. What the Foundation studies is narrower: if zero is treated as an axiom and removed, several of those problems have to be restated, and the restated problems are different problems. No solution has been claimed or published.

Question 3

Is PSI Chordis independent of North South Industries?

Accepted Answer

Not yet in the full sense. North South Industries funds and staffs the Foundation. The Foundation addresses that with pre-registration, public data and controls, published protocols, partner publication rights, and a corrections log. Outside advisory board seats are planned.

Question 4

Is the Foundation a nonprofit?

Accepted Answer

The Foundation is organized as the research arm of North South Industries. Its legal and tax status will be stated once it is confirmed. Until then it does not solicit donations and does not describe itself as tax-exempt.
