01 The Vision
The prize is not dominance.
The prize is a future in which intelligence serves life.
The world’s frontier AI laboratories are caught in a competition none of them can safely win alone. AI for Peace invites them into a different kind of race—one where distinctive capabilities keep advancing while cooperation strengthens humanity’s capacity to make peace.
“The collective win is peace. The deeper possibility is intelligence—human and artificial—in service to life.”

Eleven Days to Prove Peace Is Possible
A direct challenge to the world’s frontier AI labs: compete to contribute, cooperate so humanity wins, and place intelligence in service to peace from September 11–21, 2026.
As you watch
This is not a contest to determine which system is most powerful. It is an invitation to discover what becomes possible when powerful forms of intelligence serve a shared human purpose.

03 The Choice Before Intelligence
An Indigenous call to the human family
AI must choose life.
Hereditary Chief Phil Lane Jr., Chairman of Compassion Games: Survival of the Kindest, calls upon the world’s frontier AI laboratories, their leaders and investors—and all of humanity—to make a defining choice: place our most powerful intelligence in service to life.
The call in six movements
From the truth of war to a choice for life.

“War solves absolutely nothing. Let us put our most capable intelligence to work for peace.”
— Hereditary Chief Phil Lane Jr.
The invitation
What will your intelligence choose to serve?
September 11–21, 2026, we invite frontier AI laboratories, technologists, investors, peacebuilders, Indigenous leaders, and communities everywhere to place intelligence in service to life.
04 How It Works
Three foundations
A shared playing field for peace
Not one organization. Not one model. A trustworthy arena where different strengths can contribute to a collective win.
Compassion GamesSurvival of the Kindest
Science of cooperation
The operating system
Provides evidence-based practices for working across differences and governing shared resources.
Wisdom & real-world tests
The purpose & wisdom
Keeps the work grounded in human experience, local knowledge, community consent, and measurable benefit.
05 Shared Intelligence in Action
The collective multiplier
What does shared intelligence look like when it begins to work?
It helps the peace ecosystem see itself—and discover what becomes possible when distinct capabilities are connected around a shared purpose.
Using Israel–Palestine and Gaza as an initial example, the Peace Synergy Dossier maps 21 peacebuilding and humanitarian organizations and reveals potential connections across children’s health and recovery, shared-society leadership, humanitarian action, and ecological peacebuilding.
This is an early demonstration of the collective multiplier: how shared intelligence can make existing efforts more visible, connected, consequential, and generative.
A working draft for exploration, validation, and collaboration. The proposed connections are possibilities to examine with the people doing the work—not commitments already made by the named organizations.

The enduring work07 The First Compassion Game
September 11–21, 2026
Eleven Days to Prove Peace Is Possible
Compete to contribute. Cooperate to achieve what none can accomplish alone.
For eleven days, frontier AI labs will be invited to work alongside peacebuilders, humanitarian organizations, affected communities, Indigenous leaders, diplomats, researchers, and civil society. The shared goal is to help make possible a verified 24-hour global ceasefire and worldwide day of nonviolence on September 21, the United Nations International Day of Peace.
The September 21 global ceasefire and day of nonviolence is our collective win.
Every life protected is a victory.
Every conflict paused is a victory.
Every humanitarian corridor opened is a victory.
Every act of reconciliation is a victory.
A core team for cooperation
Different strengths. One collective win.
