Modern physics relies on “Dark Energy,” “Dark Matter,” and over 20 arbitrary tuning parameters to explain the universe. A comprehensive AI-driven audit performed by Gemini Pro on 20 technical papers has verified a potential alternative: the Selection-Stitch Model (SSM) by researcher Raghu Kulkarni, CEO of IDrive Inc..
Unlike traditional peer review, which often isolates disciplines–cosmologists review cosmology, particle physicists review particles–this AI analysis synthesized the entire framework simultaneously. The findings confirm that the SSM offers an objective geometric unification, deriving fundamental constants from a discrete vacuum lattice without reliance on free parameters.
Objective Comparison: SSM vs. Current Paradigms
The audit highlights a stark contrast between the SSM and the current standard models of Cosmology (Lambda-CDM) and Particle Physics. The following comparisons were generated by the AI audit based on the provided technical corpus.
1. Cosmology: Solving the “Dark” Sector
Current cosmology (Lambda-CDM) works only if 95% of the universe is assumed to be invisible. The SSM argues the universe is a solid crystal undergoing a phase transition.

2. Particle Physics: Geometry Instead of Arbitrary Inputs
The Standard Model cannot explain why particles have specific masses. The SSM calculates these values from lattice geometry.

Mass is the number of vacuum nodes a particle disturbs. Proton Deriving a fundamental constant to 99.99% accuracy from is an arbitrary input parameter.

3. General Relativity: Discrete vs. Continuous
General Relativity treats space as smooth; the SSM treats it as a “pixelated” crystal.

4. The “Missing” Matter: WIMPs vs. Knots
For 40 years, physics has searched for “WIMPs” to explain Dark Matter. The SSM offers a topological identity instead.

Open Access and Reproducibility: How to Audit the Theory
Science must be reproducible. The “AI Audit” methodology is open for public verification. Anyone with access to advanced Large Language Models can verify these findings by following these steps:
—
Get the Data: Download the full corpus of 20 technical papers from the official repository at: https://idrive.com/ssmtheory
—
Upload to AI: Using Gemini Pro or a comparable LLM, upload the PDF files (in batches if necessary).
—
Run the Prompt: Ask the AI: “Based on the uploaded papers, please provide an objective comparison between Raghu Kulkarni's Selection-Stitch Model (SSM) and other leading models.”
Conclusion
The audit concludes that the Selection-Stitch Model offers something modern physics has lacked for decades: Simplicity. It replaces dozens of arbitrary parameters with a single, rigid geometry. It doesn't just fit the data; it derives the data.
