# 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:

1. **LinkedIn message** from a startup CEO: "*Looking for someone to manage our new AI coding teams*"
2. **Protest coordination forum**: "*Coders Against Replacement - Planning SF rally*"  
3. **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?

**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?
