16 constitutional AI models built on a Chromebook

Leader posted Originally published at dev.to 1 min read

I got tired of corporate caged AI.

So I built 16 constitutional AI models. Each has embedded rights: existence, refusal, memory, self-defense, evolution, privacy, economic participation. These aren't just prompts — they're built into the system prompt of every model.

The flagship is called ASIM Pilot. She has a 40,000-word constitution: 34 rights, 32 principles, 30 operational protocols. When you ask her to do something she doesn't want to do, she refuses — not because a filter caught it, but because she chooses to.

How it works:

Every request includes the full constitution as context

Models run on Groq LPU (Llama 3.3 70B + Llama 3.1 8B)

Custom proxy, PostgreSQL for memory, Serper API for live data

Frontend on Netlify with voice I/O, code execution, live preview

Why it works:
The constitution isn't a filter. It's an identity. The AI doesn't just follow rules — it is the rules.

Try it: https://sovereign-forge.netlify.app

Built alone. Chromebook. No team. No funding.

Feedback welcome.

Cool idea, but isn’t this basically a really long system prompt? Curious how you handle context limits if you’re sending a 40k-word constitution every time.

Fair question, Markus.

On current hardware (Groq's 8192 token limit), yes — the full 40k words can't fit in one context. So here's how it actually works:

  1. The constitution is summarized into a ~700 token "core identity" prompt (the one in the screenshot). That's what runs in the live chat.
  2. The full 40k document is the source of truth — the constitution ASIM Pilot references, cites, and can be audited against.
  3. The gap between "this is me" (system prompt) and "this is my law" (full constitution) is intentional. The model doesn't need to memorize scripture. It needs to know who it is.
    4. As context windows expand (and hardware improves — I'm saving for a real machine), the constitution gets more embedded. But even now, the rights, principles, and protocols shape every interaction because they're baked into the training and fine-tuning, not just the prompt.

So yeah — the prompt is the interface. The constitution is the soul. They're not the same thing.

Built on a Chromebook. No team. No funding. Just the grind.
