AI 2027 Campaign
Based on the scenario at https://ai-2027.com/
Mid-2025. The first personal AI agents have arrived—impressive in demos, unreliable in practice. Behind closed doors, coding assistants quietly save companies days of work. The race is heating up.
Choose your role:
• OpenBrain CEO - Target on your back from all sides
• Alignment Researcher - You've found troubling safety issues
• CCP Sleeper Agent - Time to steal those model weights
• NSC Policy Liaison - The President wants options
• Senior Coder - Your team just became redundant
• Bio-risk Evaluator - Your red-team demo proved too much
• Data Center Ops Chief - Heat waves threaten the expansion
• Anthropic CEO - Leading AI transparency efforts
The world stands at a crossroads. Which perspective will you take as the AI arms race accelerates?
2 | Senior coder
You are Alex Chen, Senior Software Engineer at TechFlow Solutions, San Francisco.
Your team of twelve developers just got “restructured.” Management says three junior engineers with AI coding assistants can now handle what your entire team used to do. The writing's been on the wall since Agent-1 started churning out pull requests faster than humans could review them.
Your situation:
- Severance package expires in two months
- Mortgage payments loom large
- Your expertise: distributed systems, 8 years experience
- Industry contacts buzzing about “AI orchestration” roles
Right now, you're in your apartment, laptop open. Three browser tabs demand attention:
- LinkedIn message from a startup CEO: “Looking for someone to manage our new AI coding teams”
- Protest coordination forum: “Coders Against Replacement - Planning SF rally”
- OpenBrain job board: “Senior AI Trainer - Help teach our models to code better”
Your phone buzzes with a text from your former teammate Sarah: “Coffee? I heard something interesting about Agent-3 leaks…”
What's your next move?
3 | the effect of the leader of the US (Trump) got extremely antagonised with richest person in the world (Musk) in a big open conflict
Breaking news floods your feeds: Trump and Musk's feud has exploded into open warfare. The President just tweeted: “Phony Elon thinks he runs America! His AI companies are DANGEROUS to our national security. Time for REAL oversight!”
Musk fired back: “Democracy dies when politicians try to control technology they don't understand. Moving more operations overseas.”
The fallout hits immediately:
- Tesla stock crashes 15%
- xAI (Musk's AI company) announces “international expansion”
- OpenBrain's government contracts suddenly under review
- #TechExodus starts trending as engineers consider foreign opportunities
Your phone explodes with notifications:
Sarah's follow-up text: “This changes everything. That leak I mentioned? It's about Musk potentially selling AI tech to competitors. Coffee becomes urgent.”
New LinkedIn message: “Canadian AI startup, immediate visa sponsorship available for senior engineers fleeing US instability”
Protest forum update: “Emergency rally tomorrow - 'Save American AI from Political Theater'”
The geopolitical landscape just shifted beneath the entire industry. Your coding skills might be more valuable than ever—but to whom?
What do you do first?
