In light of the potential for catastrophic events, such as a nuclear disaster, humanity must be prepared to rebuild and innovate. The Inventor’s Repository aims to create a secure vault that will preserve detailed instructions for essential inventions and technologies vital for survival and reconstruction. By leveraging artificial intelligence (A.I.), this project seeks to ensure that the wisdom of past generations is not lost, but instead serves as a foundation for future societies.
