Will “value lock-in”—the fixing of ethical goals or norms for future SI—secure humanity’s flourishing or freeze our worst errors for eternity? SE Press platinum protocols operationalize CEV, proxy pluralism, challenge cycles, and cross-series upgrades to guarantee every value is perpetually contestable, plural, and repairable. Only living standards—never static codes—can secure justice for an open future.

Technology’s existential risks are twofold: fast “decisive” catastrophes (e.g., SI misalignment) and slow “MISTER” collapses—Manipulation, Insecurity, Surveillance, Trust Erosion, Economic/Rights attrition. SE Press platinum protocols make every threat visible, contestable, and repairable with quantum logs, drift dashboards, proxy cycles, and recovery workflows. Resilience is hardwired—every error is a call to action.
