Classification rationale
An institution founded by a human around an anticipated AI Godhead, documented through filings, interviews and reporting. The institutional proposal and its reception give it a distinct subject from its founder’s general biography.
Evidence status
Documented founding, theological proposal and closure; later relaunch is an attributed announcement.
Classification confidence: Moderate
Source limitations
The two Harris reports form one investigation. Guardian reception draws on that discovery; Axios relays TechCrunch’s dissolution reporting, and Business Insider relays Bloomberg’s relaunch interview. The four reporting families cover different stages and do not independently establish continuing membership or practice.

Four reporting families cover distinct claims: Harris/Wired founding investigation (two reports counted once), Guardian reception drawing on Harris, TechCrunch dissolution relayed by Axios, and Bloomberg relaunch interview relayed by Business Insider. This is not four independent confirmations of current activity. The archived official website is primary institutional evidence. Moderate/3 reflects strong historical documentation but uneven independence and unresolved continuity.
