Liquid democracy and collective governance
agora.razbakov.com
Agora is an experiment in governance for the age of AI — a three-layer model where machines handle logistics, people you trust set direction, and a personal AI keeps it all aligned with what you actually care about.
Problem: Traditional voting forces a choice between direct democracy (everyone votes on everything, which doesn't scale) and representative democracy (you delegate everything to one person for years). Even with better systems, participation is the bottleneck — nobody has time for hundreds of decisions a year.
Solution: Three layers, each handled by the system that does it best. Machines manage measurable logistics — the how. You vote directly on the issues you care about and delegate the rest to people you trust, per topic and revocable at any time — the what. And a personal AI team, which learns your values through conversation rather than configuration, participates on your behalf when you're busy — with you able to override everything, always. All open source, because you can't trust closed code with governance.
