Ep. 165 | Building a Wiser Web: Ancient Councils, AI Governance & What Comes Next

What do Athenian assemblies, Indigenous clan councils, and modern AI regulation have in common?

In Episode 165 of Pax Dei: The Search for Steel, we travel through time—from ancient wisdom to modern tech policy—to explore how humanity governs its most powerful tools. This isn't just about AI. It's about ethics, leadership, accountability, and the choices we make as citizens of a digital world.

We compare Confucian virtue and tribal reciprocity with today’s transparency frameworks. We explore the rise of data sovereignty, the commons, and the clash between cooperation and control. And we imagine two futures—one where technology serves us, and one where we serve it.

🧭 Featuring:
– Ancient Indian sabhas & Haudenosaunee councils
– The Mandate of Heaven & modern algorithm audits
– CARE principles, GDPR, Elinor Ostrom, Donella Meadows
– A practical Compass Toolkit for wise governance in the age of AI
