Human history does not appear to be a straight line, but a spiral. When we observe the commercial explosion of Artificial Intelligence between 2022 and 2025, we are not just seeing the futureâwe are witnessing a 4,000-year-old echo.
I. 2022â2023: The Birth of "Externalized Logic"
In the Modern Era: ChatGPT and generative AI models took the world stage. For the first time, human thought, analysis, and writing were outsourced en masse to algorithms. Intelligence became a commercial tool accessible to anyone through a "prompt."
The Mirror (2023â2022 BC): In the scribal schools of Mesopotamia, the bureaucratic revolution reached its zenith. Cuneiform was no longer just a symbolic medium for the gods; it became a highly standardized "code" for managing empires.
The Ancient Prompt: Scribes used fixed formulas and mathematical algorithms on clay tablets to process data volumes that a human memory alone could never hold. This was the birth of "Clay-based Data AI," laying the foundation for scaling civilizations beyond human limitations.
II. 2025: The Rise of Autonomous Agents
In the Modern Era: Projects like OpenClaw marked the transition from passive chatbots to active agents. AI agents were given "hands"âthe ability to execute shell commands, manage local files, and communicate independently across networks like Moltbook. They no longer just delegated information; they delegated power.
The Mirror (2025 BC): The Ur-III Dynasty perfected the system of Authorized Messengers. a messenger carrying the Cylinder Seal of the king was not a mere postman; he was an "autonomous agent."
The Seal as an API Key: The cylinder seal served as the access key to the physical system. Whoever possessed it could move resources and issue decrees in the name of the center without the kingâs presence. Much like OpenClaw in 2025, the system began to automate itself through delegated authorityâan analog network running entirely on protocols.
III. The Systemic Consequence: Progress Through Control
Both eras reveal an identical pattern: when the volume of information exceeds human capacity, we create Proxies.
2020â2025 AD: We build digital channels (regulation, AI safety, agent protocols) to tame the flood of data.
2020â2025 BC: Yu the Great builds physical canals while the Ur bureaucracy refines the seal system to tame the flood of administration.
The Magnitude of the Mirroring
It is as if the year '25 (whether BC or AD) is the magical moment when the tool becomes the actor.
In antiquity, this "automation" through messengers and seals eventually led to the collapse of the rigid old central power, making way for the more flexible Babylonian era.
In the modern day, with OpenClaw and agentic AI, we face the same rupture: old structures of human oversight are eroding as a new, algorithmic infrastructure takes over the world.
Conclusion:
Today, we program in silicon what we once etched into clay. This "mirroring" shows us that we are not reinventing intelligenceâwe are simply scaling it through different means. 2025 AD is the moment humanity finally hands the "Seal" over to the machine, just as the King of Ur once did with his messengers.
