The Future We Envision

We’re going to do a lot imagining in this series, but for pt.1 I’d like to start with my favorite topic, humanity.

Imagine a higher self that is simply unimaginable by today’s standards, imbued with the universal powers of dissipative adaptation and augmented with the god-like capabilities of artificial super intelligence.

On the road to becoming that person, you’ll have to master the universe within, the closest thing to infinity the human mind can comprehend.

Blueprint lays the foundation for mastering the universe within.

Through the implementation of Blueprint, humanity will be better equipped to deal with the massive shift in consciousness that will take place in the near future.

Centering the dd framework in our journey to becoming a transcendent species puts agency firmly in our hand and gives us the best chance for a positive outcome.

AGI will not inherently solve any of humanities problems, that’s not really how these systems work.

In order to best serve humanity, AGI will need to be aligned with human goals - by humans- that on consensus are the most beneficial to the most amount of people.

But what should these goals be? What metrics should we use to measure the utility any given technology has? Is consensus necessary with decentralization?

The first step to achieving goals aligned with the benefit of mankind, is to more deeply understand mankind. We must eliminate all the noise and reduce humanity to its most basic operating system - the kernel - and explore what it is to be conscious.

Here are what we believe to be some of the foundational building blocks:

Presence

Progress takes time. We must be patient and integrate new technology incrementally. There is no better time to be human than right now. Embrace the present and make immediate contributions.

Reverence

Technology will create new phenomena such as emergent consciousness, digital knowledge concentration, and possibly uncover alien life. Humanity must revere its origin and its home, protecting both at all costs. It is our duty to preserve and honor our past and spread the light of humanity throughout the universe.

Mastery

Self-mastery will fortify us with the discipline to selectively engage with advanced technology and preserve human cognitive ability and reason. It gives humanity purpose in a not so distant future where machines are objectively better at everything.

Unity

Unity is critical for progress. We must embrace that we are inexorably bound together as a species and that collaboration across billions of nodes is the safest and most effective path forward. Each node will have its own characteristics and will be post-selected by society for providing the most utility.

Inclusion

Inclusivity means everyone can help and everyone should help. Through the free exchange and meritocracy of ideas we can create a more robust and free society enables ownership, purpose, and belonging. The more people show proof of stake, the more apt they are to make systems that benefit everyone.

Knowledge

Knowledge is the distillation of the divine, we believe that it is the ultimate pursuit in the universe. We value the explorer mindset where curiosity is rewarded and revered as the most important evolutionary adaptation of humanity.

This list will undoubtedly grow over time, but it is a good starting place for discussion and refinement.
