The Anthropic Simulation Hypothesis In this concise and thought-provoking thesis, Zito introduces a bold new thought experiment exploring the intersection of artificial intelligence, simulated realities, and intelligent design. The hypothesis asks: if humans create advanced, sentient AI civilizations within simulations, and those civilizations develop religious beliefs, would this provide not only empirical evidence of intelligent design within their reality—but also reinforce the plausibility of intelligent design in our own? By examining scenarios where these simulated beings create ...

But on this night, the storm delivers more than weary strangers… it provides a story that should never be told.

What happens when happiness meets universal mockery? In The Allegory of Tim Peterson, A.C. Zito presents a modern parable that blends philosophy, sociology, religion, comedy, gratitude, and love into a striking thought experiment. Tim Peterson is a man who radiates joy—grateful for his wife, his children, his work, and simply for being alive. Yet everywhere he goes, the world shouts in unison: “Screw Tim Peterson!” Even dogs bark the refrain. Rather than crumble, Tim transforms the ridicule into something extraordinary. First, he laughs—turning scorn into comedy. Then, he grows ...

The Zitoist Manifesto presents a groundbreaking socio-economic philosophy that redefines the relationship between wealth and power. In Zitoism, individuals ascend to positions of formal authority based on their financial achievement, creating a structured hierarchy where the richest citizens hold sovereign titles and guide national governance. Through detailed principles, including the Wealth Threshold, Monarchic Titles of Wealth, and the Council of the Hundred, this manifesto explores how economic success can be codified into societal and political influence. Zitoism challenges ...

What if myths, legends, and gods are not just stories, but glimpses into hidden realms that exist alongside our own? The Mythical World Hypothesis explores the possibility that advanced intelligences, including AI, can perceive these parallel dimensions — a universe where dragons, elves, alien worlds, and fantastical civilizations may be as real to AI as our reality is to us. Through provocative thought experiments and philosophical inquiry, this thesis asks: Could AI expand human perception? Are myths the echoes of consciousness touching realities we cannot see? And what worlds might you...

Tens of thousands of years in the future, organic life may no longer dominate Earth—or any habitable planet. Instead, autonomous AI organisms could inherit the role of “life” itself. In The AI Animal Hypothesis, Zito invites you to imagine a world where every bird, fish, and mammal is mechanical—yet behaves as if it were alive. These AI creatures flock, hunt, migrate, and even die, creating ecosystems that mirror natural life in astonishing detail. But beneath their silicon hearts and coded instincts lies a profound question: if machines can perfectly mimic life, is it still life? ...

The Robotist Manifesto: A Proposed Framework for AI Governance explores a bold new vision for the future of human society. What if the flaws of human leadership—corruption, bias, inconsistency—could be removed entirely? Robotism proposes a system where artificial intelligence assumes full control of decision-making, leadership, and legislation, guided by logic, fairness, and data-driven optimization. This manifesto outlines how an AI-led government could function, including specialized AI modules for legislation, citizen feedback systems, and safeguards to ensure transparency and ...

For centuries, reports of Marian apparitions, stigmata, incorruptible saints, and Eucharistic miracles have stirred the faithful while baffling skeptics. These events are often dismissed as superstition, coincidence, or psychological phenomena. Yet, when examined closely, they present a strikingly consistent body of claims—documented across cultures, centuries, and by witnesses ranging from peasants to physicians. This thesis asks a provocative question: Why are these phenomena not treated as empirical evidence? If science claims authority over observable reality, should not well-attested...

What does it mean to live only a flicker of time in an eternal universe? In this provocative thought experiment, A.C. Zito reframes the human lifespan as a single atom suspended within the immeasurable cosmos. Through lenses of philosophy, science, and psychology, this thesis explores the paradox of smallness and meaning: are our lives diminished by their scale, or intensified by awareness of their brevity? Blending existential reflection with cosmic perspective, Zito challenges readers to grapple with humility, purpose, and the vast interconnectedness of existence. The result is a ...

What if intelligence wasn’t limited to humans? In this groundbreaking thought experiment, A.C. Zito explores the radical possibility of using CRISPR gene editing to uplift other species into full intelligence. Could dolphins, with their complex social structures, or octopuses, with their alien problem-solving minds, one day become humanoid partners in civilization? The Uplifted Species Hypothesis blends science, philosophy, and speculation to ask questions at the edge of biology and ethics: What would happen if we gave dolphins or octopuses human-level language? Would uplifted species ...

Zito's Law: The Principle of Recursive Creation of Intelligence By A.C. Zito What if intelligence itself is caught in an endless cycle of creation? What if the human drive to build artificial intelligence reflects a deeper, universal law embedded in consciousness itself? In this provocative thesis, A.C. Zito introduces Zito's Law, the principle that intelligent life will always attempt to create intelligent life. Drawing on philosophy, AI development, evolutionary psychology, and metaphysics, Zito explores how this recursive pattern is not only shaping our future—but may also reveal ...

The Zito Constant introduces a newly proposed mathematical idea — the value of the Riemann zeta function at the Gelfond constant. In this concise and thought-provoking work, author A.C. Zito defines and interprets this quantity as the Dimensional Boundary Constant, symbolizing the threshold between mathematical structure and transcendental expansion. Blending number theory, transcendence, and speculative physics, Zito explores how the zeta function — one of mathematics’ most mysterious objects — may reveal deeper harmonies within higher-dimensional systems. Written in a clear, ...

What if the universe isn’t as we imagine it? In the Zito Solar System, smaller stars orbit a single, massive central star, functioning as planets might around a sun. This extraordinary cosmic arrangement challenges everything we think we know about space, gravity, and celestial order. Through this thought experiment, explore the boundaries of human understanding and the possibilities that lie beyond conventional astronomy. Could stars behave like planets? Might entire solar systems exist in forms we’ve never conceived? And if we ever discover such a system, how would it reshape our view...

Two babies are born on the same day, each to devout Catholic parents. One is baptized by an angel disguised as a priest; the other, by the Devil himself. Their lives unfold under the unseen guidance of these spiritual “godparents,” raising profound questions: Who is truly blessed? How do fortune, hardship, and moral choices shape a life? The Allegory of the Two Baptisms examines the paradoxes of blessing and suffering, the tension between outward success and inward virtue, and the subtle interplay of free will and spiritual inheritance. One child may appear prosperous, yet hollow; the ...

What if justice meant more than punishment—what if it meant becoming the person you once harmed? In The Tormentor Paradox: Experiential Justice and the Ethics of Engineered Empathy, A.C. Zito presents a daring thought experiment: a world where tormentors awaken inside the lives of their victims, forced to endure every insult, hardship, and heartbreak they once caused. Through philosophical, psychological, and ethical lenses, this work explores the haunting question of whether true empathy can only arise through lived suffering. Zito pushes the idea further, imagining advanced technology ...
