Could you connect Tristan Harris with Bret Victor please? Really important work going on... harms caused by extractive attention economy on one hand, and Engelbart et al's vision on the other... both about humane futures that can tackle complex problems.

ah... hope so... i've been worried parallel projects could remain parallel forever and the intertwingling necessary to actually solve the vicious feedback loops in our systems never happens... felt like gotta make a Nick Fury happen: avengers assemble!... a badass female version

had to basically throw all previous work on a universal learning system idea... because realized it could be easily misused to harm people... sometimes you must prepare the world first, and then introduce products/services. so had to recalibrate, chose music!

1. your "wash your hands" plan looks solid! minimum intervention, maximum benefit 2. firehome collective, couldn't find any further details online 3. innovation shows understanding of economics & finance, but have you thought of directly tackling the financial industry problem?

3. while innovation is the true engine to drive progress & humanity, money/capital/funding is the fuel for this engine, & this is made/maintained/controlled/ruined in no small part by the global financial & banking industry; requires vision & ethics to steer towards "more humane"

YES! We need to appreciate and savor and listen to the smallest things, NOT filter everything out the the average and then wonder where our future went!
