I’m looking for people or groups who are already working on something like this:
A decentralized AI trained to preserve the intellectual, historical, and emotional essence of democracy—what it actually means, not just what future regimes might redefine it to be. Think of it as a fusion of data hoarding, decentralized AI, and resistance tech, built to withstand authoritarian drift and historical revisionism.
Maybe it doesn't reach the heights of the corporate or state models, but a system that can always articulate the delta—the difference between a true democratic society (or at least what we seem to be leaving behind) and whatever comes next. If democracy gets twisted into something unrecognizable, this AI should be able to compare, contrast, and remind people what was lost. It should be self-contained, offline-capable, decentralized, and resistant to censorship—an incorruptible witness to history.
Does this exist? Are there people in AI, decentralized infrastructure, or archival communities working toward something like this? I don’t want to reinvent the wheel if a community is already building it. If you know of any projects, frameworks, or people tackling this problem, please point me in the right direction.
If no one is doing it, shouldn't this be a project people are working on? Is there an assumption that corporate or state controlled AI will do this inherently?
