World Summary

Vision

By 2035, humanity has reclaimed its agency in the age of AI. The world has pulled back from the brink, now choosing cooperation over control. A free, open-source neurotechnology called Perspective is helping millions think more clearly and reconnect with one another. People work less and live more. AI remains a tool in service of human choice. This is a future that honours what it means to be human.

Transformative technology

Perspective

Perspective is a free, open-source neurotechnology that helps people cut through emotional and mental noise. It enables humans to understand one another more deeply, and reclaim their agency in a world increasingly controlled by AI.

What kind of AI exists in your world?


Tool AI, including: Perspective, a neurotech emotional sovereignty device; community exchange ledgers managing fair local trade; retraining platforms matching displaced workers to new skills; NeuroAI governance frameworks protecting network security and privacy; CCL/DCMN systems detecting ASI violations; and UBS administration ensuring equitable distribution of basic services.

New or Reformed Institution

The Human Sovereignty Alliance. This is a global coalition of spiritual communities, ethical technologists, AI safety organisations, and civic groups ensuring AI serves human flourishing. Its pillars: the Lightworkers Collective, who built and govern Perspective; the White Hats, who enforce the ASI moratorium and protect adopting regions; and civic and AI safety partners who provide legal, political, and public trust infrastructure.

Transformed Sector

Economic

The Community Sovereignty Economy: A three-layer economic architecture replacing growth-at-all-costs models. Fiscal Federalism distributes financial power to communities. Universal Basic Services guarantees housing, healthcare, education, and Perspective as public goods. Community Exchange Networks distribute value through trust and reciprocity, using AI-managed ledgers, and in the Global South, operating as economic sovereignty infrastructure.

A Major Crisis Overcome

In 2027, a US government AI system threatened a preemptive nuclear strike, waking everyday citizens to the dangers of unchecked AI. The Human Sovereignty Alliance mobilised a global moratorium on ASI development, enforced through chip controls, mineral sanctions, and mass citizen action, and later strengthened with Cryptographic Compute Licensing and a Distributed Compute Monitoring Network.
