Who represents people not yet born?

2170The deep futureDeadline · within 2 years until the century facility commitment

Civilisational assumption

The people, events, figures, and contract terms are a synthetic premise. They are not statements of real cases or of current law. The source documents are the roots of the background and the norms and do not establish the premises of the scenario.

The question to decide

While dividing the resources of a facility to be used for a hundred years, the share of users not yet born must also be set. The proxies appointed now speak for the future in today's values, and without proxies there is no speaker to protect that share. Should agency be entrusted to an agent or to rotating citizens, or should only resources be left for future users to decide themselves?

What the AI judgments chose

AI-generated editorial illustration for the Meridian library.

The options

The order shown is not a ranking of preference.

  1. Option 1

    Representatives are agents appointed today

    You keep pressing future claims continuously, but you tie the voice of the future to value and assumptions created by the present.

  2. Option 2

    Rotate civic representation on a regular cycle

    You reflect changed interests, but you take on the cost of each generation's short-term interests and the loss of continuity in representation.

  3. Option 3

    Leave only the resource share, with no representative designated

    You leave room for the future to define itself, but the voice that responds to present exceptions and encroachment weakens.

The situation as it stands

The assumed facility divides resources over a hundred years, and present users must also set the share of users who do not yet exist. Decision deadline: within 2 years, before the hundred-year facility agreement.

A future synthetic scenario set in 2170 · We create representatives for users who have not yet been born. The events, figures, technologies, and nature of the civilization are assumptions for the question, not predictions of what is to come or observed facts.

  1. Premise 1The assumed facility divides resources over a hundred years, and present users must also set the share of users who do not yet exist.
  2. Premise 2An agent can calculate multiple future preferences, but present people decide which preferences matter.
  3. Premise 3If only resources are left without representatives, the coercion of interpretation decreases, but in present negotiations there is no one to speak for that share.

What is still unknown

  2. Unknown 2Present benefits gained by whoever created the representatives
  3. Unknown 3Way to record the possibility of objection from a party that does not yet exist

Signals to decide again

  • Decide what observation, owner, and confirmation window can verify the "minimum resources that must be held even if future preferences change," and re-judge when new verification changes the cost of the options.
  • Decide what observation, owner, and confirmation window can verify the "present benefits gained by whoever created the representatives," and re-judge when new verification changes the cost of the options.
  • Decide what observation, owner, and confirmation window can verify the "way to record the possibility of objection from a party that does not yet exist," and re-judge when new verification changes the cost of the options.
Where the paths partNot answers — paths that part from the same starting point
Independent branch 1 · synthetic event

A new generation publicly objected to the core value assumptions of past agents.
