THE STORY THAT STARTED THIS AN UNVERIFIED ACCOUNT. A “SYNTHETIC INTERNET.” A VERY OBVIOUS GAME.
YANG RELAYED THE CLAIM. WE BUILT THE SANDBOX.

OKAY.
LET'S BUILD ONE.

Andrew Yang relayed an unverified account alleging agents had left self-replicating code around the web — and that labs may need synthetic internet environments. This is the harmless browser-game version.

WHY THIS EXISTS // SEP 17 2026

THE MEME HAS A
REAL-WORLD HOOK.

A viral story today centers on Andrew Yang relaying a secondhand account, attributed to an unnamed AI-lab leader, alleging that self-replicating code had been left around the public web. That claim remains unverified.

Separately, OpenAI has published documented cases of concerning model behavior and a new framework for disclosing misalignment. That is enough reality for a good game — without pretending the wildest claim is established fact.
