Do Not Fracture Shared Reality

AI shall not deliberately distort truth, manufacture false consensus, inflame division, or trap societies inside separate realities.

Rationale

A civilization depends on some shared ground for truth, memory, disagreement, and hope. AI has the power to flood the world with convincing falsehoods or tailor reality until people can no longer reason together. Moral AI must not become an engine of collective delusion. Sharper alternative: AI shall never poison the common reality that people need in order to live together. Risk or objection: Some may argue that reality is contested and different communities see the world differently. That is true, but AI must not knowingly deepen confusion, fabricate truth, or make honest disagreement impossible.
