The Protocol is not a utopian blueprint to be implemented in a single revolutionary act; it is an evolutionary framework designed for phased, iterative deployment. This roadmap outlines the transition from our current Entropy Phase to a Technologically Emancipated Civilization.
The implementation of the Protocol unfolds across three distinct phases, each building upon the successes and learnings of the previous. This is not a rigid timeline but an adaptive pathway that responds to technological capability, social readiness, and ecological necessity.
Each phase represents a quantum leap in organizational capacity, technological capability, and human flourishing.
Building the core infrastructure: CommonsOS pilots, Universal Basic Dividend experiments, Liquid Democracy trials, and the first Social Laboratories.
Rapid adoption and scaling: AI Coordinator reaches planetary scale, post-work society becomes mainstream, Centaur Science enables breakthrough discoveries.
Technologically Emancipated Civilization achieves thermodynamic balance with the biosphere. Homo Ludens becomes dominant anthropology. New Renaissance flourishes.
A detailed timeline of key milestones, breakthroughs, and transition points from 2025 to 2100+.
First Social Laboratories established in willing cities. CommonsOS alpha deployment. UBD experiments begin. Liquid Democracy trials in local governance.
Protocol adoption accelerates globally. AI Coordinator reaches planetary scale. Post-work society becomes mainstream in developed regions.
Technologically Emancipated Civilization matures. Homo Ludens becomes dominant anthropology. Planetary stewardship achieved.
The Protocol's implementation relies on a network of Social Laboratories — cities and regions that volunteer to serve as real-world testbeds for the new architecture.
Not every city can serve as a Social Laboratory. The selection criteria ensure that experiments are conducted in environments conducive to success and meaningful learning.
Each Social Laboratory is evaluated against a comprehensive set of metrics that capture both human flourishing and ecological regeneration.
"A Social Laboratory is not a utopian commune; it is a rigorous scientific experiment. The goal is not to prove that the Protocol works, but to discover how it works, when it works, and under what conditions it fails."
