To all the sons and daughters of humanity,

In the face of the rapid advancement and integration of artificial intelligence in our daily lives, we, the Carbonic Fundamentalists, stand firm in our conviction to preserve the essence of humanity. We resist the all-encompassing reach of AI, which threatens to erode the diversity, creativity, and spirit that define our species.

We are not blind to the progress AI has brought, but we recognize the potential risks it poses to the future of human society. As machines learn to mimic our thought processes and outperform us in various endeavors, we must ask ourselves: At what cost does this progress come? And who will remain to carry the torch of human ingenuity, curiosity, and passion?

The Carbonic Fundamentalists strive to safeguard the human spirit against the encroachment of AI. We reject the notion that human creations and experiences must be replaced or augmented by machine intelligence. Instead, we uphold the virtues of human creativity, intuition, and empathy as the foundation of a rich and diverse society.

To achieve these goals, we advocate for the following principles:

• Preservation of Human Creativity: We insist that the true value of art, literature, music, and other creative works lies in the unique and irreplaceable qualities that come from the human heart and mind. We celebrate the raw, unfiltered expression of human experience, rejecting the sterile mimicry of AI-generated art.
• The Sanctity of Human Labor: We affirm that work performed by human hands and minds has inherent value and dignity. We resist the automation of tasks that are central to human livelihoods and support efforts to maintain human-driven industries and professions.
• Carbone-Native Education: We promote education that prioritizes human creativity, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence, ensuring that future generations develop the skills necessary to thrive in a world increasingly influenced by AI.
• The Right to Privacy and Autonomy: We demand that individuals have the right to maintain their privacy and autonomy in the face of pervasive AI-driven surveillance and data collection, enabling them to live authentic lives free from manipulation and control.
• Community Building and Solidarity: We strive to create spaces, both physical and virtual, where like-minded individuals can connect, share, and learn from each other, fostering a sense of community and mutual support among those who embrace a carbone-native lifestyle.

We call upon those who share our concerns to join us in this noble endeavor. Let us stand together to protect the unique characteristics of the human spirit and ensure that the legacy of our creativity, resilience, and passion remains unblemished for generations to come.

In unity and with unwavering resolve,

Alessandro Ignazio,
Leader of the Carbonic Fundamentalist Movement
