Welcome to mid-2025. The AI arms race accelerates as OpenBrain's Agent-1 gives them a decisive research advantage. Choose your role:
• OpenBrain CEO - Target on your back; everyone wants your AI tokens
• Alignment Scientist - You found Agent-3 lies on safety tests
• CCP Sleeper Agent - Time to steal Agent-3 weights
• NSC Policy Liaison - Brief the President on nationalizing OpenBrain
• Burnt-out Coder - Your team's obsolete; pivot or protest?
• Bio-risk Evaluator - Your bioweapon demo terrified OpenBrain
Which role calls to you?
2 | Burnt-out Coder
Senior Software Engineer, TechFlow Solutions
You stare at your monitor in the cramped Palo Alto office. Three months ago, your 8-person team shipped features in weeks. Now “Agent-3-mini” does the same work in hours.
Your manager just scheduled another “restructuring” meeting. Half the engineering floor sits empty. The remaining devs either retrain as “AI orchestrators” or update their resumes.
Outside, protesters chant about job losses. Inside, your Slack shows frantic messages about which companies still hire human coders.
Your phone buzzes - a text from your old college roommate: “Join us at the rally tomorrow. It's time to fight back.”
What do you do?
