climate change is probably going to
require a million people to figure out
that we could not possibly have done
before
[Music]
we told about the cooperation by 1
million people's it will be happening in
your future it seems like you are always
looking at the possibilities of when the
lots of people knit walked and the crop
right I would say you know things like
from the Internet to the webbed slack
hmm to Facebook these are all primarily
tools of collaboration and that's what
you're doing you're sharing gossip hmm
you're sharing the pictures of your cat
yes so that's a trivial use but there
are so many other things we could do if
we could collaborate and they require a
lot more sophisticated tool if you make
if you have a million people working on
it together if your idea is passed on
and someone else modifies it how do we
track hmm that credit and so we're going
to invent these new tools for
collaboration and cooperation it's the
scale of the planet you know with
millions of people maybe billions of
people working on something together
that we could not possibly have done
before because before you need it to be
in one room together and how many people
can fit in one room it's only about 10
people so there will be some problems
for them because some of the things that
people will want to do will be a good
way maybe we don't agree with it maybe
they're criminals gathering together so
we couldn't of course that but we have a
new resource which is the collaboration
of humans in a guy at MIT Tom Malone who
calls these super Minds super Minds yes
super minds are just not AI they're just
human mind that are collaborating I
think in a way that we could never
collaborate before us would you think
that it's we need or some some other
technologies
to Mittwoch will help actually do that's
super money things one of the new
technologies coming along is the brain
mind computer Oh an interface yes so the
way one way to do super minds besides
collaborating is to actually have more
of our minds connected to connect our
minds directly is that meaning just into
mind actually marching with someone else
or you could do that so that's one of
the possibilities is telephony so where
you actually have people's minds coming
together or cooperating in a way
directly the other one is psychedelics
mmm okay so there's a whole new
resurgence in psychedelics in the u.s.
we haven't really had the research to do
that because the research was illegal my
girl all on the world about psychedelics
so that each of the new way people kind
of know looking at other new
possibilities we still can't even
imagine what will happen here that's
marginal how about both change or you
know you said just that you need to
track the small kind of contribution
about before the project yeah and is
going to be useful but what it's going
to be useful for it's not clear so
blockchain at first is used for Bitcoin
mmm-hmm yes it's you know we'll see what
happens with the cryptocurrency I think
technology's the inventor has one idea
but usually the technologies are not
used the venture doesn't know it's gonna
be used for actually hundreds maybe
thousands maybe tens of thousands of
different startups people trying to
imply it hmm but so far we haven't
really found something that we can not
do in any other way hmm and what type of
millions people project you join if you
had a chance one climate change
require a million people to figure out I
think so there's infrastructural things
that will require people working
together I think some of the more
difficult scientific mmm problem quantum
gravity hmm
dark energy maybe they require a million
scientists working together to to solve
that for instance okay the kind of
technology I'm talking about artificial
reality virtual reality world maybe
there are certain things to to scan all
the buildings in the world
mm-hm to have everything uploaded maybe
that requires a million people nineteen
we're going together I'm around the
world to do that room anything at a
planetary scale who you want to have
could require a planetary scale
cooperation
[Music]
you
