Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A manifesto, legislative scorecard, capability-threshold matrix, and public-comment toolkit for limiting how capable AI systems may become.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-12 issue.

Field notes

The project combines advocacy materials with an interactive threshold model: visitors can move a control between bounded services and more autonomous systems, then examine the site's proposed boundary. Its scorecard evaluates eight regimes against four criteria, including compute ceilings and strict liability. The page also links open-source statutory templates and a three-minute public-comment workflow. Reported participation figures and policy assessments are presented by the site and are not independently verified in the extract.
