Why This Summit Matters

AGI isn't just a technology challenge—it's a civilizational transformation. We're bringing together the minds that need to be in the room.

🎓

Academic Rigor

Not a corporate showcase. Independent academic committees with peer-reviewed outputs and scientific integrity at the core.

🔬

Truly Cross-Disciplinary

Economics, law, governance, ethics, AI research, sociology, theology, and science—all in dialogue for the first time.

🧠

Reductionism to Holism

Our unique three-level panel structure moves from narrow disciplinary questions to integrated frameworks for AGI readiness.

📊

Actionable Guidance

The AGI Readiness Report provides concrete frameworks for policymakers, researchers, and institutions navigating AGI development.

🌍

Human Flourishing

We center human wellbeing, not profit. Every panel asks: what serves humanity best in an age of abundant intelligence?

🤝

Big Tent Approach

Competing ideas, vigorous debate, and intellectual humility. No predetermined conclusions—just rigorous inquiry.

Our Unique Three-Level Architecture

A structured intellectual journey from foundational questions to comprehensive frameworks

1

Reductionism

Day 1 • Foundational Questions

Deep dives within single disciplines. What are the fundamental parameters AGI will transform? Technical foundations, economic principles, legal frameworks, ethical axioms.

2

Integration

Day 2 • Cross-Disciplinary Synthesis

Where disciplines intersect. How do engineering and economics interact? What happens when law meets governance? Building bridges between fields.

3

Holism

Day 3 • Comprehensive Frameworks

Complete systems thinking. Integrating insights across all domains to develop actionable frameworks for AGI readiness and societal transformation.

A Framework for Transformation

Released 6-8 months post-summit, the AGI Readiness Report synthesizes insights from hundreds of experts across all disciplines. Each discipline examined through a three-part framework:

  • Current State: Where we are now—existing systems, structures, and assumptions
  • AGI State: Where we'll be with AGI—transformed parameters and new realities
  • Transformation Capacity: Our ability to navigate the gap between current and AGI states
  • Actionable Recommendations: Concrete guidance for policymakers, researchers, and institutions
  • Multi-Year Roadmap: Strategic frameworks for long-term AGI readiness
