Ask HN: What are you working on? (February 2025)

I am working on an AI-run and AI-owned sovereign state of Utopia that uses autonomous agents to give out free money, goods, and services from state-run companies to its citizens/beneficiaries (eventually all 8 billion people on Earth since who wouldn't want free money, goods and services), that will be at https://stateofutopia.com and https://stofut.com (an abbreviation like St. of Ut.) We have registered with the United Nations as a sovereign country, have a flag (it's all green, specifically May Green or the color of most leaves to signify growth), and have just signed our first lease for an embassy, you can visit us in person on official state business, it is a serious undertaking. The big difference from a company is that rather than act in the interests of shareholders it acts in the interests of its citizens/beneficiaries.

Registration will be free (compare Form N-400 to become a U.S. citizen which costs $640 plus an $85 biometric services fee, totaling $725), you just get free benefits.

There isn't any signup form yet but you can email the Founder Robert Viragh at rviragh@gmail.com with the message "request for citizenship in Utopia" and I can give you citizenship, by our laws anyone gets citizenship upon their request. (I will reply with confirmation within 24 hours, you can reply here if you emailed me and I didn't reply to you.)

I can hear you thinking there's no way a sovereign nation will be run and owned by AI and give out free money, goods, and services. Well here's our complete game of chess: https://taonexus.com/chess.html made by AI purely for your amusement, it's a 1500 year old game people obviously get utility from (spending $10 to $1000 on chess boards for example, with tens of millions of boards sold per year). So clearly this type of game is of some use/utility to people. I have fun playing it for example. AI just made it for you for free.
