"AI takes many forms. Like the word “transportation”, it refers to a collection
of technologies as diverse and distinctive as bicycles to rockets. But today,
one version of AI takes all the oxygen: large-scale, generative systems that
power products like Claude, Gemini, and ChatGPT.
These systems consume an unfathomable amount of data, land, energy, labor, and
water. They are rooted in profoundly disturbing ideologies that seek to flatten
the world into a “one size fits all” abstraction and to replace humans with
machines.
We call the companies leading this form of AI development “empires”. Under the
guise of a civilizing mission to "benefit all of humanity”, they use
large-scale AI development as cover to consolidate resources, destroy
ecosystems, centralize information, hollow out institutions, and gain paramount
economic and political power.
It doesn’t have to be this way. As AI researchers, journalists, and critical
scholars, we have built, documented, and imagined radical alternatives that do
precisely the opposite: center community, celebrate human agency, honor local
context and history, and rejuvenate the planet.
Now people around the world are mobilizing to resist the empires of AI and to
nourish visions of the future that work for all of us. Amid an onslaught of
negative news, this project centers hope."
