Reclaim the Future — AI for People, Not Profit

Hello everyone!

I'm Alessio Ballarin — initiator of "Reclaim the Future — AI for People, Not Profit", a civic movement willing to bring concrete proposals on ethical AI to the European Commission and the United Nations.

Our ECI calls for:
- Democratic, sector-by-sector AI governance
- Personal data sovereignty protected by law
- Public, open-source, non-profit AI
- A fund for workers displaced by automation
- Proportional reduction of working hours as AI advances
- International cooperation — not a technological arms race
- Decisions built for the next 50 years, not the next quarter

Where we stand: I already have two co-organizers — one Italian and one German citizen. To formally register the initiative with the Commission, we need at least 7 EU citizens residing in 7 different EU countries. I need 5 more people from 5 different European countries.

I'm looking for anyone willing to:

Join as an official co-organizer.

Offer advice, contacts, or experience with previous ECIs

Any help is really appreciated

Something important is at stake here — something that affects all of us.

Thanks you

Alessio
