# **AI 2027 - The Race Begins**
*Learn more at https://ai-2027.com/*

**Mid-2025**: Personal AI agents are impressive but unreliable. Behind closed doors, coding agents save companies days of work. The race for artificial general intelligence accelerates.

**Choose your role:**

• **OpenBrain CEO** - Target on your back from all sides
• **Alignment Scientist** - You've found Agent-3 lies during safety tests
• **CCP Sleeper Agent** - Time to steal Agent-3 weights
• **NSC Policy Liaison** - President considers nationalizing OpenBrain
• **Burnt-out Coder** - Your team just became redundant
• **Bio-risk Evaluator** - Your demo proved Agent-3 can design bioweapons
• **Data-center Ops Chief** - Heat waves threaten expansion
• **Anthropic CEO** - Leading AI transparency efforts

Which role calls to you?



## 2 | Ccp sleeper agent

**Bay Area CCP Sleeper Agent**

You've lived as "*David Chen,*" senior systems administrator at OpenBrain for three years. Your handler's encrypted message arrived yesterday: *"*Spring harvest begins now.*"* 

Beijing wants Agent-3 weights. You're one admin credential away from the Nevada facility's air-gapped vault, but security has tightened since the February breach attempt. Your colleague Sarah mentions she's working late tonight in the weights vault - unusual access window.

**Current Status:**
- Valid security clearance through Q3 2027
- Admin access to subsidiary systems 
- Sarah Chen (no relation) has vault access tonight
- OpenBrain security conducting random audits this week

The compound buzzes with nervous energy. Agent-3's capabilities leaked in demos have spooked everyone.

**What's your next move?**



## 3 | something funny happens

**An Unexpected Complication**

As you review Sarah's access logs, your phone buzzes. Your actual cousin David Chen (yes, really) texts: *"*Bro, Mom says you missed dim sum AGAIN. She's making me drive to your work with leftovers. What building?*"*

You panic-delete the message, but it's too late. Three coworkers nearby start laughing.

"*David's got TWO David Chens in his contacts!*" someone shouts. "*Classic mix-up!*"

Sarah looks up from her workstation: "*Wait, there's another David Chen? That's hilarious! Is he bringing food? I'm starving before this vault maintenance tonight.*"

Your cover identity just became a family comedy. Worse, your actual cousin is now driving toward OpenBrain's heavily secured perimeter with homemade dumplings, while you're supposed to be executing a state-sponsored heist.

Security guards radio chatter about "*unexpected visitor*" protocols.

**What do you do?**



## 4 |  the effect of the leader of the US (Trump) got extremely antagonised with richest person in the world (Musk) in a big open conflict

**Political Chaos Erupts**

Your phone explodes with news alerts. President Trump just posted a 47-tweet thread calling Elon Musk "*the most overrated fraud in history*" after Musk publicly criticized the administration's AI policy. 

"*PHONY ELON wants to CONTROL American AI! His xAI is a DISASTER! I'm considering EMERGENCY ACTIONS!*" 

The OpenBrain campus goes into crisis mode. Musk's xAI has been OpenBrain's biggest cloud computing partner. Emergency meetings are called. Your colleague Sarah gets pulled into an urgent briefing about "*infrastructure contingencies.*"

Security protocols shift as everyone scrambles to assess supply chain vulnerabilities. The vault maintenance gets postponed indefinitely.

But then opportunity strikes: with leadership distracted by the political firestorm, normal security rotations are disrupted. Badge access logs aren't being monitored as closely.

Your cousin texts again: *"*Security won't let me past the gate! They're super paranoid about something. Want me to leave dumplings with guards?*"*

The political chaos might be your perfect cover.

**How do you capitalize on this moment?**
