Preparing Civilization for the Age of AI
SafeHaven is building the societal immune system for AI at scale, anchored by AI Townsquare, Societal Readiness Index and the Readiness Institute.
Global AI Readiness Index
The Global AI Readiness Index measures how prepared countries and regions are for the implementation and adoption of artificial intelligence technologies. North America leads with the highest readiness score, followed by Western Europe and East Asia.
Our Mission
Safehaven exists to prepare civilization for the advent of artificial intelligence and superintelligence through collaborative governance, societal readiness, and global initiatives.
Bridging the Readiness Gap
We address the critical gap between exponential AI growth and linear societal adaptation through research, education, and practical frameworks.
Collaborative Governance
We champion the AI TownSquare model—a modern adaptation of humanity's collaborative governance systems tailored for the AI era.
Self-Correcting Society
We develop frameworks for a self-correcting society that can adapt to rapid technological change through systems theory, learning theory, and cybernetics.
The Challenge
We face an unprecedented challenge: AI advancement is accelerating exponentially while our societal adaptation remains linear, creating a critical readiness gap.
Exponential Growth vs. Linear Adaptation
The widening gap between AI capabilities and societal readiness creates unprecedented risks and missed opportunities.
Governance Lag
Traditional governance structures move too slowly to effectively regulate and guide rapidly evolving AI technologies.
Literacy Deficit
Most citizens, policymakers, and even technologists lack the comprehensive understanding needed to make informed decisions about AI.
Concentration of Power
AI development is increasingly concentrated in a few corporations and nations, creating imbalances in access and influence.
Alignment Complexity
Ensuring AI systems align with human values becomes exponentially more difficult as capabilities increase and systems become more autonomous.
Our Approach
The AI TownSquare concept and self-correcting society framework form the foundation of our approach to AI governance and societal adaptation.
The AI TownSquare
The AI TownSquare isn't a utopian fantasy—it's a modern adaptation of humanity's long history of collaborative governance and resource sharing, tailored for the AI era.
- Decentralized governance structures that distribute decision-making power
- Transparent processes that build trust and accountability
- Inclusive participation that ensures diverse perspectives
- Iterative learning mechanisms that improve over time

The self-correcting framework ensures that as AI evolves, society adapts—closing the readiness gap one pillar at a time.
Self-Correcting Society
By integrating principles from systems theory, learning theory, and cybernetics, we lay the theoretical foundation for a self-correcting, adaptive governance model.
Systems Theory Foundation
Understanding society as an interconnected system with feedback loops and emergent properties
Learning Theory Integration
Building adaptive capacity by equipping citizens, institutions, and developers with skills for rapid technological change
Cybernetic Principles
Implementing feedback mechanisms that detect errors and adjust in real-time to maintain system balance
Global Initiatives
Our work spans continents and cultures, building a truly international movement to prepare civilization for AI and superintelligence.

Societal Readiness Index
The Societal Readiness Index (SRI) provides a framework for measuring and enhancing society's preparedness for AI integration.
Measuring Readiness
The SRI evaluates readiness across multiple dimensions, providing actionable insights for improvement at individual, organizational, and societal levels.
