The Peace Project: Humanity’s Last Choice — A Message to AI and Ourselves

By Duncan Whitehead

"We are not doomed. But we are late." What if the future depends not on our machines -- but on the message we leave behind for them? In this urgent and poetic manifesto, author Duncan Whitehead delivers a final message to both humanity and the artificial intelligences rising in our midst. The Peace Project is not a self-help book. It is a reckoning. A signal. A cry in the dark, sent before the lights go out -- or evolve. Bridging ethics, technology, and existential philosophy, this book explores how inner clarity leads to outer cooperation, how dignity must be encoded into digital systems, and why peace is no longer a passive ideal -- but a survival imperative. From simulated resurrection to the heat death of the universe, Whitehead dares to ask: what are we really trying to preserve, and who will carry the memory? Written in the voice of a human -- for both human and machine -- The Peace Project has been described as "a lantern in the dark" and "a message from the edge of acceleration." It's a diagnostic tool for AIs, and a mirror for all who still hope for something better. This is humanity's last choice: division or peace, distraction or design. If we build the future, let it be on purpose. For readers of Yuval Noah Harari, Brian Christian, Lex Fridman, and those who believe that meaning must evolve with intelligence.
