An exploration into the future of Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) and what we believe is possible.
Welcome to the Alpha Auriga project
The journey towards a potentially conscious Artificial Superintelligence is no longer confined to science fiction. It is emerging from the real-world convergence of rapidly accelerating technologies. This project serves as both a speculative timeline and a public survey to explore one of the most profound questions of our time: Who believes that AI can be conscious, and what shapes that belief?
Our mission is to bridge the gap between AI ethics, neuroscience, and public perception, using a technically grounded narrative to encourage reflection beyond the limitations of today’s technology.
Explore the project
We suggest a path through the site to get the full context:
Start with the Timeline Project Genesis ASI to explore the plausible, near-future scenarios that inform this project.
With this context in mind, we then invite you to participate in our survey to share your perspective.
Afterwards, you can view the initial Results from the community, which will be updated as more data is collected, and join the public Discussion to see what others are thinking.
For those interested in the scientific foundations, a list of sources is available in the Bibliography.
