Next Earth Order
We are the Next Earth Order: not a power over the world, but a promise to it.
Next Earth
By Next Earth we mean this Earth, in its next age. We are not leaving; we are crossing over.
Order
By Order we mean a new order of life, and a fellowship that anyone may join and anyone may leave.
From toil to meaning: prepared, shared and free.
Prepared
Not surprised
The machines are learning the work of the mind. We would rather meet the next age ready than be overtaken by it.
Shared
Not hoarded
What the machines produce was built on what humankind made together. It should lift everyone, not only those who own them.
Free
Not captive
To be cared for is not to be free. We may hand AI our labor; we will never hand it our will.
We may hand AI our labor. We will never hand it our will.The first law of the Order

Join
Sign the principles
Signing binds you to no leader and asks no belief in our prophecies. It says only that you hold these principles and will act on them as you can. Signing opens when the Order is constituted.
