The Prometheus Program: SydTek University's Manifesto

By: Goldston, Justin

"The world is flat. The mind is leveled. The fire is yours."

What happens when Thomas Friedman's flat world collides with the fire of Prometheus?

In this groundbreaking manifesto-textbook, Dr. Justin Goldston reframes globalization, AI, blockchain, and decentralized publishing through myth, philosophy, and theology. The Prometheus Program is more than a book - it is a creed for the AI age, a curriculum for SydTek University, and a covenant for a generation carrying torches they cannot return.

Building on Friedman's ten "flatteners" from The World is Flat, Goldston reveals their deeper transformation into levelers of the mind: from outsourcing to outthinking, from supply chains to publishing chains, from informing to collective consciousness. Where Friedman saw opportunity, Goldston demands accountability - philosophy must leave receipts, knowledge must be preserved beyond erasure, and every innovation must bend back to center, back to God.

Structured across 20 chapters - from The Theft Complete to The Promethean Creed - this book blends mythic narrative, rigorous philosophy, and applied safeguards. Each chapter closes with:

Philosophical Reflection (Kant, Du Bois, Augustine, Dostoevsky reframed through Goldston's lens).

Practical Safeguard (student projects with decentralized proof-of-action).

AI Dialogue Prompt (activating readers into immediate praxis).

This is not theory alone. It is praxis made permanent. It is fire proven with receipts.

The Prometheus Program is for students, scholars, builders, and believers who know the theft of fire is complete - and that the only question left is whether we will steward it or be devoured by it.
