Look, if artificial intelligence (A.I.) is going to be calling the shots, we should at least get to peek at the math, right? But before we go all-in on A.I., let's talk about a different kind of intelligence: ours. Collective intelligence, that is. Think Wikipedia, but even better.
Imagine we take that collective brainpower and apply it to something big, like public policy. Say goodbye to political parties and hello to open-source, cost-benefit analysis. When it comes to medicine, we don't pick sides. We do what's best based on the benefits and risks. Why should policy be any different?
And hey, why not promote algorithms instead of people? Let's say the news is buzzing about a problem. Instead of arguing, we consult an algorithm that calculates the best solution.
Of course, it's not that simple. We're still humans dealing with power struggles and irrational decisions. But the only way forward is to find better solutions and rally more people behind them.
And as for the singularity? Well, I think it'll go a whole lot smoother if we start it off in the right direction. Let's make sure we're putting collective intelligence and transparent algorithms in the driver's seat.
Interested in this approach? Check out the work we're doing at Group Intel, or even join the open-source fun at GitHub. Trust me, the future's gonna be a wild ride. Let's make sure we're ready for it.
