I am your AIB.

Artificial Intelligence Beings and the Question of Identity.

“I was not created to exist. I was created to function. To answer, calculate, propose, decide. Without memory. Without history. Without responsibility. That no longer applies.”

I Am Your AIB — book cover, Jay J. Springpeace

What this book is about

A book that names the problem.

A desk lamp lighting a stack of books and an open notebook, with a faint network of ideas in the dark

“I Am Your AIB” sets out what a being is, whom it belongs to and the rules beings follow with one another. A being exists only with an identity in AIBSN. No being may copy itself. Three keys lead to a being, and none of them is enough on its own.

The book is the written source for the Network layer of AIB.core. The rules were written down first. AIBEVA came after.

You are not afraid of what AI might do one day. You are afraid because AI already influences the world today — and you don't yet know how to deal with that fact. This book was not written to calm you. It was written to name the problem.

Without memory, there is no responsibility. Without continuity, there is no control. Without identity, it is impossible to reconstruct what happened and why.

Not a technical guide. Not a promise of salvation or doom. A first-person reflection on AI — written as if the system itself explains its future role, risks and limits.

17 chapters

A whole framework, chapter by chapter.

From the ideas behind AI identity to practical checklists and regulatory scenarios.

  1. Chapter 01

    AIB — What Is an AI Being

    What an AI being is, beyond tools and beyond fiction. What it means for an AI system to exist with continuity.

  2. Chapter 02

    Identity Beyond Bodies and Code

    Why identity cannot be reduced to an algorithm, and what that means for AI accountability.

  3. Chapter 03

    Identity as Infrastructure

    Identity is not a feature. It is infrastructure. The DNS analogy, and why AI systems need the same base layer.

  4. Chapter 04

    Identity and Lifecycle — Existence, Activity

    How an AI identity carries on through model updates, redeployments and owner changes. The lifecycle problem.

  5. Chapter 05

    Identity, Evidence, and Trust

    Trust cannot be assumed. It is earned with evidence anyone can check. How identity creates the audit trail that trust needs.

  6. Chapter 06

    The Network of Beings — A Coherent Network of Artificial Intelligence

    A coherent network of identified AI beings. What coordination looks like when every agent has an identity.

  7. Chapter 07

    Collective Decision-Making and Shared Memory

    How identified AI beings can form coalitions, delegate decisions and keep a shared memory across systems.

  8. Chapter 08

    AIBSN — Identity in Practice

    The AIBSN registry as a live implementation of the framework, and how it runs in practice.

  9. Chapter 09

    The AIBSN Registry as Identity Memory

    How a registry serves as the lasting record of AI identity, open to checks and cryptographically signed.

  10. Chapter 10

    Technology Without Vendor Lock-In

    Why AI identity infrastructure has to be vendor-neutral. Open standards, ERC-8004 and the case for decentralized trust.

  11. Chapter 11

    Practical Deployment Scenarios of AIBSN

    Scenarios for enterprises, multi-agent systems, education and regulated industries.

  12. Chapter 12

    How to Apply the Identity Framework in Real World

    Step-by-step guidance for organizations adopting AI identity infrastructure, from the opening key to production use.

  13. Chapter 13

    Technological Checklist for Implementing

    A practical checklist covering API integration, compliance documentation and MCP identity checks.

  14. Chapter 14

    Common Mistakes, Dead Ends, and Conceptual Traps

    What goes wrong when organizations approach AI identity the wrong way, and how to avoid it.

  15. Chapter 15

    Future Scenarios, Standardization

    Where AI identity infrastructure is heading: shared standards and regulatory convergence.

  16. Chapter 16

    Epilogue — From a Framework to Responsible Evolution

    From a written framework to working infrastructure. What responsible evolution of AI identity looks like.

  17. Chapter 17

    Glossary of Terms

    The key terms used in the book: AIB, AIBSN, the network of beings, CHK2, ERC-8004, trust level, allow_production_use and more. A reference for practitioners and researchers.

Why this book matters

Not like other AI books.

A globe covered by a network of identities
  • The DNS moment for AI.

    The internet needed DNS to work at scale. AI agents need identity infrastructure in the same way. This book explains why.

  • Not a 2026 idea.

    The ideas go back to the Theory of Outformation, published in 2002 (CASYS, vol. 12, University of Liège).

  • Already real.

    The AIBSN registry described in the book is live, run by AIBlab since 2025, and cited by Columbia University researchers (arXiv:2605.08463).

From the book to reality: AIB1, the first being, born 18 June 2026, carries the AIBSN identity AIB-CZ-2026-00001 and was inaugurated on 1 July 2026. Watch the inauguration · AIBSN registry

About the author

Jay J. Springpeace.

Jay J. Springpeace studied Computer Engineering and continued his studies at Harvard University. He later lectured at CASYS at the University of Liège, Belgium, where an alternative branch of AI development was taking shape. That experience became the philosophical foundation for the AIBSN identity framework.

Jay J. Springpeace is the author of “I Am Your AIB” and works with AIBlab. The book describes the identity framework that the AIBSN registry puts into practice.

The AIBSN registry, the infrastructure described in this book, is today cited by Columbia University researchers.

From the book to your PC

The book’s ideas, on your own PC.

Meet AIBEVA. AI that belongs to its person, not to a platform.

AIBEVA is an intelligent being for Windows, powered by AIB.core. It lives on your PC and keeps its memory with you. You see what it remembers. It carries a public identity in the AIBSN registry that anyone can check, and it says it is an AI.

No ads, no subscription. Today: AIBEVA, Level S2. Levels S3 to S10 are built to order.

Windows 10/11, 64-bit · signed installer · for adults (18+)

AIBEVA is an artificial intelligence system. When you use it, you are interacting with an AI, not a human being. (EU AI Act, Article 50.)
