2/ Some people think there will eventually be some AI government that just makes good decisions. That’s kind of terrifying and still feels like a long way away.

3/ My theory is that the next generation of government won’t actually be a better form of government as much as it’ll be a system that enables the world to test lots of different types of government faster, cheaper, and with less risk.

4/ For example, people could buy secondary citizenship with startup governments for a small tax (the way the very rich can buy citizenship with existing governments) in exchange for services like online protection via a digital hacker army.

5/ Seems like lots of crypto ppl are starting to work on this problem at a lower level (eg DAO’s, Decred, etc.) but I don’t think we know how to code a great government yet. I think code can help us by making it easier to find the best model(s) of government.

6/ I want to learn more about government 2.0. Who’s writing or thinking about this question beyond the already popular books like The Sovereign Individual, Homo Deus, etc.?

Replying to @ChaseAdam17
How do we determine that our current form of government isn't one of the best models, just executed poorly? It seems like Code For America and USDS are trying to solve for just making the current version work better

could def be the case. but historically it seems like tech changes how things work vs just adding tech to the existing thing. eg encarta online vs wikipedia or all those apps for yellow cabs vs uber or hilton’s website vs airbnb, etc.
