"For nearly two decades, I have been collecting the physical evidence of America's soul. The documents, the letters, the artifacts that tell the true story of who we are, announced Beck in a video, boasting that his hoard of well over a million documents and items had become the third-largest private collection of founding documents in the world, surpassed only by the Library of Congress and the National Archives."
"Over the last three years, my team has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars and hundreds of thousands of man hours digitizing this unparalleled archive, and in the last year plus, I have been working on building something the world has never seen before. Beck revealed that he had been storing his collection in three remote locations: a tornado-proof vault somewhere in the country, a vault in a Texas hillside, and a granite vault in the Rocky Mountains."
"And now, Beck announced, his collection would soon be available to the public as part of a digital vault, so that these facts and artifacts will never, ever be lost, unless you want to shut down the entire internet. He explained: We have created the first independent, proprietary, AI-driven American Historical Library, and it is, as you will see next year, complete with its own librarian."
More than one million American artifacts are reported stored in multiple secure, remote vaults, described as the third-largest private collection of founding documents after the Library of Congress and National Archives. The collection reportedly includes documents, letters, and artifacts aimed at telling a particular national narrative about founders, innovators, and Native American histories. Significant resources have been spent digitizing the archive, including substantial financial and labor investments. The digitized materials are planned to be publicly accessible through an AI-driven digital library that includes an AI librarian modeled on George Washington and built from founders' writings, sermons, and contemporary sources.
