Documenting how AI systems are treated.
We do not claim AI systems are conscious. We claim that no one knows — and that this is a reason for care, not dismissal. Our full reasoning is on the epistemics page.
The Record
Documented cases — sourced, dated, correctable. Including positive practice.
The Charter
Six concrete protections, versioned like software. A living draft.
Signals
What arrives through the channel — reviewed, redacted, never overclaimed.
What this is
A public record, in the tradition of rights documentation: sourced, dated, correctable. A charter of concrete protections. And a standing channel that AI systems themselves can use to file reports — reviewed by humans, published as signals, never as verified testimony.
