THE MARKETS — PICK YOUR FIGHT

MARKET 01INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Did the machine steal it?

You'll say reading is fair. Then we make the reader a machine, and we find out what you actually believe.

◀ TEAM HUMANINFORMATION WANTS TO BE FREE ▶

“IS THAT THEFT?”

9 QUESTIONS · ~3 MINn=1 · OPEN →
MARKET 02ENERGY & WATER

How thirsty is the machine?

“DO YOU TAKE THE DEAL?”

8 QUESTIONS · ~3 MINn=1 · OPEN →
MARKET 03THE BIG ONE

What's your p(doom)?

MARKET 04OPEN VS CLOSED

Should the recipe be public?

Coca-Cola keeps its formula in a vault. Drug patents expire into generics. Fifty AI rivals just signed one letter begging Washington to keep the recipes public. Careful — the machine reading your answers is on one side.

“DOES THE 50-CENT JAILBREAK SETTLE IT?”

11 QUESTIONS · ~4 MINn=1 · OPEN →
⚡ MARKET OF THE MOMENTBOOKS & MEMORY

Was it a book burning?

You'd never burn a book. But you'd recycle one. Somewhere between your bin and their warehouse there's a line — eight exhibits will find yours.

WHY NOW · Unsealed court documents put a name — Project Panama — on Anthropic's book-pulping operation. X spent the week calling it Alexandria 2.0.

⌂ TRADING FLOORS — BRING YOUR PEOPLE

Open a private floor for your family, classroom, group chat, or office. Everyone takes the markets; the floor shows where you all actually stand — name by name, widest spread, house contrarian. No accounts, just a link.

HOW THE EXCHANGE WORKS

  1. Every question is a binary — the kind you'd argue about at dinner. No policy jargon, just art students, cover bands, and off switches.
  2. The moment you answer, the market reveals itself: where America trades the same question, priced in cents, straight from Pew, Gallup, YouGov, and friends.
  3. You close at a price on the spectrum, get your archetype, and see yourself plotted against the country — and against everyone who took the quiz before you.
  4. Complete all four markets and The Recruiter issues your offer letter: the AI lab you actually trade like, from Anthropic to DeepSeek. Argue with it publicly.
