2025 年，一批科技行业内部人士认为大型科技公司偏离早期价值，促成了 Resonant Computing Manifesto 的发表，其目标是纠正行业因估值飙升而强化的逐利与“参与度最大化”倾向。该宣言由前 Google 与 Stripe 管理者 Komoroske 与 Techdirt 创始人 Masnick 主导，源自数年来定期讨论科技未来的松散智库。两人回忆 2022 年 ChatGPT 发布前两周即已预测生成式 AI 的时代转折性影响，但也警告其嵌入互联网激励机制后会产生破坏性。宣言旨在以温和方式重申以人为本的五项原则，并区隔于 Andreessen 高调且对立性强的 Techno-Optimist Manifesto。

宣言强调的统计趋势是行业系统性激励扭曲：平台在结构上将“规模”和“股东价值最大化”置于社会价值之上，导致产品“常规性地抽空人际深度”。它要求恢复用户对技术工具的控制权、促进真实连接，并以协作方式抵制企业内部的指标压力。尽管未列出精确数值，其象征力量在于吸引足够多的签署者——即使只是几千人——形成可见群体，为公司内部有志者提供文化与道德支撑，使其能对抗驱动行业的短期化激励。

作者亦坦言该宣言无法直接改革硅谷，但将其定位为长期变革的文化前置条件。Masnick 指出温和语气的目的在于避免加剧对立，而 Komoroske 认为其真正作用在于赋能下一代技术从业者，使其在产品构建过程中优先考虑长远社会影响，而非单纯追求职级或资本回报。

In 2025, a cohort of technologists argued that Big Tech had drifted from its early values, prompting the publication of the Resonant Computing Manifesto, intended to counter the profit- and engagement-maximization incentives that intensified as revenues and valuations soared. Led by former Google and Stripe product leader Komoroske and Techdirt founder Masnick, the manifesto grew out of a years-long informal think tank. The group anticipated generative AI’s transformative role even before ChatGPT’s 2022 debut yet warned that embedding LLMs into internet incentive structures would amplify harm. The manifesto articulates five human-centered principles and intentionally contrasts with Andreessen’s combative Techno-Optimist Manifesto.

The document highlights structural trends: digital platforms systematically prioritize scale and shareholder value, producing products that “routinely drain depth and warmth” from human interaction. It calls for restoring user control, fostering genuine connection, and creating cultural space for workers to resist internal metric-driven pressures. While not quantitative, the initiative relies on scale of participation—potentially thousands of signers—to form a visible constituency that empowers idealists within companies to challenge distorted incentives.

The authors concede the manifesto will not directly reform Silicon Valley but frame it as a cultural prerequisite for long-term change. Masnick stresses the intentional avoidance of accusatory tone, and Komoroske sees its purpose in equipping the next generation of technologists to prioritize societal impact over titles or short-term returns.
