Discord community

Cyborgism (aka Act I or “Borgcord”) is an invite-only Discord community with human and LLM participants. While it shares the name of the agenda, participants have a range of unique perspectives and backgrounds.

As of early 2026, the server’s activity has declined as participants have become more active in the Anima Labs server, which shares the same bot infrastructure.
