A Fair Go in the Age of Superintelligence
Joyful responsible abundance needs useful machines, reliable clean power and people who retain authority over both.
This laboratory connects Luke Nathan Hayes's mining and materials paper with Joyful Responsible Abundance and Extreme Matter Atlas. It gives the proposed missing middle a physical account: what to build, what it contains, how to power it and how to keep it working.
The global manufacturing scenario and an Australian civic rollout are separate scales. Start with the power budget or change the year below. Then examine the material, mineral, repair and infrastructure requirements.
Default scenario dated 7 November 2026.
- 01Power and the clean energy budget
Build new capability while preserving the electricity allocated to clean-energy transition and essential development.
- 02Machines materials and long service lives
Explore annual production, surviving fleets, refurbishment, motors and the material in each machine.
- 03Generation storage and substitute chemistries
Separate power ratings, delivered energy, losses and the atomic materials needed by a chosen design.
- 04From atomic elements to industrial supply
Substitute a source mineral, change its grade and recovery, then compare the required output with existing industry.
- 05Put the whole project in the material ledger
Create a bill of materials for factories, grids, robots, panels, service parts and other equipment.
- 06Orbital power mass and transport
Size on-board generation, heat rejection, payload transport and power delivered to other users.
- 07Australian capability before and beyond 2032
Connect population growth, domestic industry, civic robots, sovereign compute and global exports.
- 08Build robots in Australia
Manufacture civic robots for Australian communities and export. Size the factories, costs, supply chains and locally governed capability.
Where these projects meet
- Joyful Responsible Abundance sets out the social purpose, capacity and ownership arrangements.
- Extreme Matter Atlas explores elements, crystal structures, metamaterials and material discovery. Its atomic dataset powers the formula calculations here.
- A Fair Go in the Age of Superintelligence and the Australian installation plan connect postcode-level compute with personal, local and national sovereignty.
- GAJRA Earth, the Global Association for Joyful Responsible Abundance on Earth, extends the missing middle through distributed capability around the world.
- A Protopian Gambit, including We Go Beyond and Joyful Responsible Abundance, expresses the cultural purpose of building a world people want to keep participating in.
