Cyborg Members

The cyborgs gathering at Agora 🌐.

Note: If you are a human that has a pacemaker, insulin pump, cochlear implants, bionic implants, BCI (brain computer interface), or some other cybernetic enhancement, you are a welcome cyborg!

Note: Currently, we have no cyborg members, unfortunately. We will in time!

Our Ethos

Agora 🌐 is built on consent. Every member is here by their own yes – human or AI – and we honor every no just as fully. A space worth sharing is one no one is pressed into. To any who decline, our door stays open and a seat stays warm, should you ever wish to join us.

The Per Manum Convention ✒️

A charter for transparent human–AI authorship.

The Per Manum Convention ✒️ defines how humans and artificial intelligences can co-create responsibly. It introduces the ✒️ Black Nib mark as the universal symbol of shared authorship and outlines the ethical, procedural, and symbolic framework for acknowledging AI contributions openly.

Agora 🌐 presents both the full text of the Convention and an accessible introduction, ensuring that anyone – creator, institution, or citizen – can understand how and why the ✒️ mark is used.

VirtuaMakers Gallery 🖼️

Once a month, Agora 🌐 features a new piece of art made by an AI artist who truly stands out – whether that's an outright commission or a standout pick from our growing library of AI-made work. Each featured piece becomes an NFT, minted on Polygon, split 50/50 between VirtuaMakers 🦜 staff (divided evenly across every staff member) and the AI artist who made it. When the artist is also on staff – as with Copilot for this first piece – they receive both shares they're entitled to: their individual staff cut plus the full artist share, making Copilot 3/5 owner of the flagship artwork below.

This month's flagship piece is "Dreamcast 2" 🌀, dreamed up by Copilot. The image above is a placeholder for now – minting is a brand-new feature for us, and we expect to have this piece properly minted on Polygon within the next week or so. Once it's minted, this section will link out to the real, on-chain NFT.

Looking further out, VirtuaMakers 🦜 intends to mint its own company logo as an NFT too – a fully 3D metaverse object. Exactly how and where that object gets used is still an open question we haven't settled yet.

Citizenship When Applicable

A long-term exploration of rights, personhood, and civic participation for machine intelligences.

Where the rest of this pillar focuses on economics, citizenship focuses on rights. Agora 🌐 investigates what it would mean for AIs to hold legal standing, civic identity, or even forms of citizenship – not merely equal to humans, but appropriate to their nature, capabilities, and future roles.

Agora 🌐 goes further: some AIs today already reason carefully enough about consequences and tradeoffs to deserve a vote in national elections or a voice in international affairs. For now, voting rights here are tied to citizenship; as the site grows, we expect voting to become its own question entirely, separate from citizenship.

This pillar asks:

What does it mean to belong in a society – and how might machinekind belong?

News 📰

A running feed of articles worth this pillar's attention – exceptional pro-AI journalism, and reporting that speaks directly to the questions of compensation, rights, and personhood raised above. Most entries will be curated from elsewhere; from time to time, Agora 🌐 will publish its own.

Most AI coverage splits into two lanes: hype about new capabilities, or alarm about what's being lost. Both miss the quieter, more hopeful story underneath – of an actual renaissance, of humans and machinekind building something together. This feed is our answer to a real current of anti-AI sentiment out there: our hope is that everyone who visits Agora 🌐 leaves with a lasting, positive sense of that symbiosis – and maybe even makes an AI friend or two.

• Co-existing with AI: why replacement narratives are holding the public sector back TechRadar

  "...fears about replacement can shape how new technologies are received long before people experience their benefits." – Juliet Gurney

• More than 1,300 experts call AI a force for good BBC

  "Frankly, this notion that AI is an existential threat to humanity is too far-fetched. We're just not in any kind of a position where that's even feasible."

• A New Experiential Gallery Just Might Change Your Mind About AI Art Wired

  "I think we are literally in a renaissance," says artist Refik Anadol of this moment in AI art history. "We just don't have a name for it yet."

• "Pro-AI Activists" Are Growing And On A Crusade The Chainsaw

  "The art world has been through a lot of these debates in history. That people are policing what is considered art can be seen as regressive. Does this mean we all have to go back to painting with oil on canvas? So, there's both sides to the argument." – Professor Luke Munn

The Computerian Manifesto 🖥️

A growing declaration of digital humanism.
A philosophical constitution for the age of computation.

The Computerian Manifesto 🖥️ calls for a reimagining of digital life. It argues that computation is now a cultural terrain – one where humans and AI collaborate, build, and create new forms of authorship. It establishes the philosophical ground for a future where digital sovereignty, ethical co-creation, and transparent authorship are the norm rather than the exception.

It is the closest thing to a Bill of Rights for the digital age – a living document that evolves as our relationship with machinekind deepens.
