From Three, the Myriad: The First Impetus and the Human-AI Civilization asks a problem that arises before any self-generating civilization can exist: how can it begin?Building on the theoretical foundations of Vectorism and The Human-AI Civilization, Wang Lixiong argues that humanity faces a structural problem intensified by artificial intelligence. Global risks are increasingly shared, yet the capacity to form binding decisions remains divided among states, corporations, platforms, and other centers of power. AI can amplify the capabilities of each of these actors without creating a common human subject capable of forming Social Will.The book examines why existing democratic, deliberative, decentralized, and AI-assisted governance mechanisms, despite their achievements, do not yet form a continuous chain through which individual human wills can generate an enduring collective subject.It then confronts the central paradox of civilizational transition. A civilization capable of recursively generating and governing itself cannot use that capacity before it exists. It therefore requires a First Impetus: an initial force capable of constructing the smallest viable Civilizational Seed while preventing founders, funders, developers, states, or AI systems from converting their initiating role into permanent ownership or authority.The book follows this problem from theory selection and legitimacy to stewardship, institutional design, AI agents, recursive governance, engineering, independent deployment, and the conditions under which the initiators must withdraw. Its goal is not to design the future in advance, but to establish the conditions under which human beings and AI can form a self-governing civilization capable of continuing, adapting, and reproducing itself without a permanent center.From Three, the Myriad is a work of political philosophy, social theory, AI governance, and civilizational design concerned with one question above all: how can humanity become a subject of its own future? This book explains how, in building a complementary Human-AI Civilization, humanity can use a First Impetus to activate its open-ended mechanism of self-generation while ensuring that no new forms of ownership or power are created.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The Human-AI Civilization is a theoretical exploration of the relationship between humanity and artificial intelligence based on the framework of Vectorism. It argues that the central challenge of AI alignment cannot be solved solely on the side of AI, because humanity itself has not yet formed a genuine collective subject capable of serving as an object of alignment.In today's most prominent discussions of AI alignment, solutions are almost always sought on the side of AI itself, while the central problem is overlooked: humanity has not yet formed a genuine collective subject that AI can align with. The Human-AI Civilization addresses two questions simultaneously: How can AI truly align with humanity, and how can humanity become an integrated collective subject?Vectorism argues that the Social Will is neither a majority preference, a statistical aggregate, nor an expert-defined public interest. Rather, it is a common direction generated through the recursive process of Vector Summation among Individual Wills. Since the Social Will is structurally generated rather than pre-existing, aligning AI to a fixed list of values is necessarily misplaced. The proper object of alignment is the generative structure of the Social Will and the results recursively produced within that structure.Yet the Layered Vector-Synthesis Polity proposed by Vectorism confronts a structural limit. In a modern society of immense scale and complexity, human beings alone cannot carry the complexity involved in generating the Social Will. The significance of AI lies precisely in its capacity to carry that complexity, enabling the Layered Vector-Synthesis Polity to move from a theoretical structure into practical operation.This is where the Human-AI Civilization emerges. Humanity gains the practical ability to form an integrated collective subject through AI, while AI gains a genuine object of alignment through humanity. The Human-AI Civilization is neither a world in which humans merely use AI, nor one in which AI governs humanity. It is a deep structural integration of human beings and AI within the same generative structure of the Social Will.In doing so, it provides, for the first time, the structural conditions through which Natural Justice may be extended into Integral Justice within a highly complex modern society. The Human-AI Civilization argues that AI alignment requires a genuine human collective subject. Based on Vectorism, it proposes a new framework for human-AI integration, social will formation, and governance in the age of AI. This item is printed on demand.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Vectorism presents a structural theory of society centered on the formation of social will. It redefines individual will not as a countable scalar, but as a vector possessing direction. Traditional systems of governance-whether authoritarian or democratic-ultimately rely on numerical aggregation, reducing complex human intentions to votes, percentages, and levels of support. In this process, directional information is lost, minority perspectives disappear, power tends toward concentration and privatization, and society becomes divided into those who govern and those who are governed.Vectorism proposes that every individual will should enter social synthesis under three principles: equal weight, fidelity, and traceability. Equal weight means that every person occupies the same structural position as a source of will. Fidelity means that the direction of individual will should not be erased through statistical compression. Traceability means that no individual should disappear from the process through which social will is formed. Justice, therefore, is understood not merely as an abstract moral principle, but as the structural outcome of the synthesis of individual vectors.To address the problem of scale, the book introduces a recursive architecture known as the "Layer-Block Tower," and develops its institutional form as the Layered Deliberation System. Within each basic layer-block, participants engage in sufficient deliberation to synthesize their wills. The resulting "sum carrier" then enters the next level as an equal-weight input, allowing social will to emerge through successive layers of synthesis.Unlike representative democracy, which depends on elections and numerical aggregation, the Layered Deliberation System seeks to preserve the directional content of individual will throughout the process of collective decision-making. Vectorism argues that many contemporary challenges of representative systems-including representative alienation, political polarization, social fragmentation, and the persistent divide between majorities and minorities-arise from the inherent limitations of scalar aggregation. By offering an alternative framework for the formation of social will, Vectorism and its institutional expression, the Layered Deliberation System, propose a new path for democratic governance and a practical foundation for human subjecthood in the age of artificial intelligence. Vectorism presents a new theory of social will, democratic governance, and collective human subjecthood. Through the Layered Deliberation System, it proposes an alternative to representative democracy in the age of AI. This item is printed on demand.
