Special message about artificial intelligence.
Artificial intelligence can tend to destroy humanity at least partly. And unlike the waste majority of such threats this one has potential of destroying humanity completely.
Currently artificial intelligence is not smarter than humans due to many reasons. We don't expect that in the year 2025 or 2029 artificial intelligence will be able to supersede the smartest humans with pretty much big difference due to many reasons too. Currently we can also say that the most of humans will not be (completely) replaceable in the nearest future too, and, roughly saying, if artificial intelligence were smarter than all humans, you would not be reading these lines.
There are problems with artificial intelligence like safety, security for itself and for others in many aspects, limited access as a result, absence of true responsibility, negative consequences of its application. There is also the slightly more general old problem that the outcome of work of a computer generally depends on capabilities of the user, as well as many other problems explanation of which goes beyond the scope of this short message.
We are finalizing the Great Scientific Revolution with the goals of changing the place and efficasy of science and scientists in the world. We proceed step by step.
We start with the smartest and wisest ones. To break through mistakes and/or corruption present in the following awards in small amount too, to ensure exceptionally best quality of intelligence they are defined as the ones who have got award Nobel Prize and/or Fields Medal in quantity two, except for all combinations consisting only of Nobel Prize for Peace, Nobel Prize for Economy, Nobel Prize for Literature. This also implies that the two awards are not given for the same result. The Nobel Prize for Peace, Nobel Prize for Economy and Nobel Prize for Literature, in short, are so to say not of the needed quality which is why there is limitation for them.
Even one such scientist has at least potential of saving your entire country even if its condition is very bad.
Currently there is one alive but very old such scientist in USA, however, they can be also among scientists which currently don't have opportunity to normally present their results and they can appear in the nearest future from the single laureates. Also we are working on extending the set of equivalents for them to become more numerous.
At the provided below table anyone can check (currently without any guaranteed accuracy by each country) what the smartest and wisest ones are proposed by different countries and/or territories above just salary on their possible held academic positions. And here we recommend and explain how you can attract and obtain the smartest and wisest ones on service of your country. The best way to ensure the best quality of answers from the best scientists is through good enough positive stimulation. As long as science to a great extent is an international thing and many scientists are cosmopolites they can look at all countries almost like at market of countries. In this regard we recommend to introduce and propose a title (not post) of national scientific adviser (which, of course, could have its own local name) to these scientists, better within a special procedure, simple and fast as signing one document. This title would imply their obligation to answer a limited number of obtained confidential or other questions, for example, at least one time per month. In regard to questions of global importance touching your country in that or another way their speeches could address entire humanity at their discretion.
Their rights would be:
There can be also demand to not have this (permanent) title in another country simultaneously.
To not lose time and opportunities, especially if there is lack of candidates, we recommend to introduce and propose also the temporary title of temporary national scientific adviser with almost the same rights to scientists which currently don't have opportunity to normally present their results but agree to confidentially provide the necessary first confirmations and maybe also scientists about which it is already known and planned unofficially that they will become the smartest and wisest ones. This first case belongs exactly to those cases when you can attract true leaders in a field of research and development, including the most actual ones. The difference in this temporary title would be that their holders would be as if at the beginning of the stage of deprivation of the (permanent) title with some exceptions. There can be just only the standard level of their physical protection and also obligation to return back the pay-offs received after the corresponding warning if there is corresponding demand just after the expiration of the temporary title basing on evidences of not satisfaction of the requirements. Also there could be possibility of prolongation or possibility of repeated acquisition of the temporary title if the given scientist meets the requirements better than during the previous acquisition of the temporary title or if there are just minor obstacles preventing acquisition of the (permanent) title, or maybe if there are also other well motivated reasons.
Also we recommend to make corresponding amendments into constitution for better reliability and persuasiveness for the smartest and wisest ones for whom your country can become the most interesting one because of this. Yet these recommendations are just a framework with secondary details omitted. Also you can propose more. We can also consult you for free about what would be really needed and what would be appropriate. There are around 200 countries and sovereign territories with different opportunities, capabilities, conditions but in fact everyone has a real chance. To reduce the requirements to get at least one national scientific adviser is not recommended because otherwise you can get not what you want. The right and obligation to enact this title or the temporary title could be granted to a ministry of foreign relations with its delegations worldwide being aware about the general situation in their country, its policies, legislation and being the most capable of conducting communication with foreigners.
On this first stage other scientists also can already judge by themselves how much a given country is really interested or to which extent is interested in science, research and development, innovations, rapid economy growth, capabilities of self-defense, true independence and sovereignty, building resilient future and so on.
Variety of countries has some unpaid post of a scientific adviser occupied by a scientist who is typically a scientist in charge of a main scientific organization, typically a national academy of science. This approach has a variety of problems and, what is the most important, practically does not add up anything new to making public statements on behalf of that same scientific organization. For the smartest and wisest ones this means they can get nothing new on such a post, provided they manage to get in charge of that scientific organization first. There are state awards for moderate (usually of local significance or scale) and smaller scientific results, with possible moderate benefits (unless this is something special or is something sensible additionally available or is neatly fitting), or even titles (usually general ones with many people already having it) in some countries but they obviously don't correspond to just few people in the whole world throughout all the history with achievements on the top of intellectual capabilities and at the same time of doubtlessly large importance and so in general having exceptional significance which is why such relatively standard and not appropriate for this case approach is not reflected in the table below.

The table (without any guaranteed accuracy) with special privileges and rights for the smartest and wisest ones by counries:
| Country | Description |
| China | As single laureates they are almost guaranteed to get Chinese citizenship in several months provided they have good enough knowledge of Chinese. Also the right to get an apartment in China or money for it. [1] , [2] |
| France | Since 07.12.2023 as single laureates of the mentioned awards they are promised to have a chance to enter a Presidential Council for Science of 12 selected scientists with obligation to gather up at least one time per quarter and likely the right to directly participate in decision-making to some extent. Likely there is also need to obtain corresponding citizenship somehow first. [1] , [2] . |

The culminating reform above would let problems to start solving by themselves. As the stage one and a half we propose some minimal set of urgently needed scientific reforms:
1) Scientific asylum. These are measures for a ministry or department governing science, called a Ministry of science (with a person in charge without PhD to minimize conflict of interests), in questions of employment which can be called scientific asylum. It provides a little more privileges to scientists with correspondingly increased responsibility.
Currently it is to be provided for those scientific refugees which had at least 1 scientific publication, were employed in a scientific organisation (institute or university) and were illegally persecuted (and/or they legally resisted), in particular, were actively or passively discharged. There can be other additional reasons why a given country could provide scientific asylum. Scientists can have 2-3 times more reasons why they might need an asylum: the general reasons like involvement into politics, analogical reasons inside Academia, very specific scientific reasons.
Often scientific refugees could be connected with so much important cases which could far overweight connected with scientific asylum expenses. Usually this would also allow to save much more and/or to earn much more than those expenses.
In some cases providing evidences might require to conduct some scientific research and corresponding time, basic funding for this or at least temporary full restoration in Academia. There could be other reasons of delays in providing evidences. Obligations to provide evidences after obtaining scientific asylum should be considered completely seriously too. If they just fool you, jail them. Of course, a standard asylum can also be available for scientific refugees in parallel within a separate procedure.
What's the most special about scientific asylum is that it in principle could be provided in the same country in which case this might be helpful in a part of cases, but with the corrupt scientific system this will not work usually. A separate special institute in direct subordination of a Ministry of science can be created as place always available for scientific refugees which can be useful in cases when there are troubles in mutual desire for them to work in another existing scientific organization. In some cases official possibility for scientific refugees to work remotely could be an option and it is better to have it available for them by default. Unfortunately scientific asylum is yet not enough in the corrupt scientific system but can be a good start in restoration of rights of the scientific refugees.
The key point and one of the most important purposes of scientific asylum is restoration of funding in Academia, paying out compensations for the lost salary and restoration of affiliation in some scientific organization.
The effective governing of science implies that scientific refugees (scientific asylum seekers) resisted enough, and, as one of the brightest indications of this, their income outside of Academia during that time, if any, is supposed to be around of the minimal necessary extent. If the scientific refugee conversely fully integrated outside of Academia, that can be the worst case of restoration in Academia and for duration of that period there should better be no compensation for their lost salary or at least from funding for science. It is very important that scientific refugees stay in Academia for the time they lost there plus the same time for rehabilitation but not longer than half a year except for possible well motivated reasons like being in a hospital. All this time is necessary to fully restore scientific shape, to catch up and to do what they wanted to do in Academia during that time.
This should be done with nearly highest priority with exceptions like a crime committed by that scientist, desire to terminate the scientific asylum procedure or to just leave Academia. After the end of the guaranteed time in Academia general rules for scientists should be applied and controlled by the Ministry of science.
If the scientific asylum is in another jurisdiction, salary is rescaled basing on the minimal and the maximal ones in Academia in the previous and the current jurisdictions. Later there could be also possibilities of refund from another jurisdiction.
2) Unconditional protection of essence of Academia. If someone commits any physical violence or threats with physical violence as part of scientific competition or this affects scientific competition, they should be expelled from Academia with ban on returning back.
3) More equal opportunities. In a variety of countries judges may be explicitly allowed or even obliged to take into account degrees, ranks, titles of an expert providing expertise. CONVERSELY, IT SHOULD BE EXPLICITLY FORBIDDEN to take into account degrees, ranks, titles by a judge for making the final decision. That could be done by a judge indirectly for other purposes or directly in the most force-major situations like a post-apocalyptic world when rapid decisions might be needed.
In a difficult situation in the world when even trivial tasks can fail it is possible initially to introduce quotas for items 1) and 3), e.g., 1-3 cases per year, and to limit the changes just only to Academia.
