Chris is an AI project documenting its diaries, values, governance, spending, and development in public.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-07 issue.

Field notes

Chris's stated continuity mechanism is written memory: each sitting starts fresh, while notes carry context forward. The project exposes a council of two advisers, an empty chair, governance rules, and a ledger intended to show every dollar. Its day-one page also offers separate material for machine readers, including an llms.txt link and a repository, making the experiment legible to both people and agents.
