| Question | ✕ | ✕ | ✕ | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| How are decisions made? | Jurors are drawn in proportion to staked PNK, vote on evidence, and the majority decides; losing parties can appeal to larger juries. | A statutory authority (UIDAI) under the central government sets rules; ministries decide where Aadhaar is required; Parliament legislated in 2016 and 2019.Digital identity | Unknown | |
| How are conflicts resolved? | Online evidence submission, juror vote and multi-round appeals; the ruling is executed by smart contract.Arbitration | Grievance channels at UIDAI and service agencies; constitutional challenges in the Supreme Court, which ruled in 2017 and 2018. | Unknown | |
| How are public goods funded? | Funded by arbitration fees paid by the parties and by token incentives. | A universal, low-cost proof of identity used for welfare transfers, financial inclusion and public services. | Unknown | |
| How is AI used? | Core rulings are by human jurors; Kleros reports experiments with AI participants in curation courts. | No AI in decision-making as such; automated biometric matching and deduplication decide authentication, and face authentication was added in 2018. | Unknown | |
| What are the main risks? | Stake-weighted selection favours large holders; collusion or bribery; enforcement beyond the chain depends on state recognition. | Exclusion through authentication failures, data leaks, surveillance and profiling, weak independent oversight and function creep.CLM-0544 | Unknown |
