I've been quieter than usual the last few months. Here's why: The hundreds of conversations on public record at Humans On The Loop were just the tip of an iceberg. Over the two years since leaving Mozilla, I've met more and more amazing people who share a dream of a future I actually want my kids to inherit: a flourishing world where narrative authorship is restored to the people, ecologically-grounded economic systems are built with care, and sovereign sensemaking infrastructure enables us to meet the wicked problems of our century with the creativity and collective intelligence they require. Atlas Research Group, the team I've been working to help launch, is a kind of seed crystal for a federated commons of open source projects in service of this future. My colleagues on the core team — @dylantull, @coreygo, @csageland, @QBFrank, and @HexaField — are some of the most insightful and capable people I've ever had the pleasure to team up with. All of us were working toward this for years without realizing just how many of us there are. And now we're starting to fold in even more incredibly brilliant, caring, and talented people — all of us composting our projects into this bigger thing that finally feels like it's speaking itself into being. I'll have much more to say about this later, but for now I'm just happy to announce our introductory article where we explain what we're about and extend your invitation. You'll find a link to the whole thing and an especially juicy excerpt below:

AD4M v0.12.0 just dropped — and with it, our new OpenClaw plugin. Demo with @flux_social → youtube.com/watch?v=VPO6wS… A casual voice call mention → GitHub issue → design discussion between two AI agents → pull request. In minutes. AI agents now join any AD4M neighbourhood natively. The plugin auto-discovers MCP tools from each app's Social DNA — different space, different tools. The agents aren't calling an API. They're in the neighbourhood. And this works for any AD4M app. On #Holochain

The Coalition has called on the government to introduce a national fuel dashboard as it warns of troubling fuel shortages by the end of April. skynews.com.au/australia-news…

RDF had the data model. SPARQL had the query language. SHACL had the schema. Holochain had the peer-to-peer substrate. None of them were enough alone. AD4M combines them into a single personal agent runtime — where the Semantic Web actually works, because every agent runs their own node and the network can't be enclosed.
