Cognitive Terraforming

A white paper, grown out of Aeviterna, defining cognitive terraforming, the large-scale reshaping of the conditions under which populations think, increasingly by AI. It includes a test for when that shaping turns harmful, evidence-graded habits that help, and dated forecasts that could prove it wrong.

Advisory 2 21.10.2026 CLR Clear

Version 1.1, now 59 pages with about 260 references. It gained a scored test for when shaping how people think becomes cognitive terraforming, a cautionary record, an evidence-graded practice guide with a one-page field guide, and nine dated forecasts, and every promise moved into an optional Future work section. Shipped as a standalone paper. A read-through comes next, checking the example scores and forecast probabilities and spot-checking the key citations, before it is shared.
