Humanity is defined by our agency to create.

In a post-superintelligence world, the scope of human creation will change. We will need new tools and we believe merging with intelligence will be fundamental to maximizing agency, autonomy, and individual power.

We have been working closely with @alexblania, @sama and @sandroherbig at @worldnetwork, building tools that protect human agency. We are thrilled to expand our partnership with @mikhailshapiro, @sumner and Tyson with our investment in @merge, co-leading this financing with OpenAI. If you are interested in learning more get in touch!
