Top Norks!

[@kungfujoe2136]

all sounds very good the problem is the social contract is dead imho that can only be fixed with a better economy

[@kungfujoe2136]

twitter is eazy to fix just make 2 sorts (or 3) 1 is 100% free speach you see everything but not everyone can see you 2 is a nice version 3 is a woke version (would be intersting to see wich one of those gets bigger)

[@kungfujoe2136]

trhe only way to fix this is social engineering

[@DaveShap]

Great talk Liv! Also, just want to reinforce this point: very early in my AI/KZbin career i came up with the mantra "give everything away" and it has served me well. 142k subscribers in just over a year. As they say, the proof is in the pudding.

[@fire17102]

Dave hope to see you on this pod and hear you both discuss how to birth a win-win ai , all the best! 🧘‍♀️💫

[@LivBoeree]

Amen to that!

[@tmyoshimura621]

I’m only a little way through this podcast and wow, this conversation is refreshing! 😌🌱

[@samvarcoe]

I love the podcast Liv, you've found a rich conceptual seam to mine and I think putting it out is having a real positive impact.

[@LivBoeree]

thanks so much Sam! Please help spread the word :)

[@olivergilpin]

Chris is rocking some heck yeah cool headphones. But seriously - solid ep. And agreed Chris we need more giant dreamers! Who can also execute

[@LivBoeree]

thanks Oliver!! And yes we do. Excited for your new projects!

[@olivergilpin]

Let’s get it 🙌 Considering Chris mentioned MrBeast, whose team I’m talking to - there might be an opportunity to support our giant creator-movement campaigns via the Audacious Project. I’ll look into it!

[@LivBoeree]

great idea!!!@@olivergilpin Lmk if i can help, feel free to email me

[@olivergilpin]

awesome will do Liv!@@LivBoeree

[@Mookiethedog]

Yo...this looks awesome....I'll be tuning in when it's recorded! Love that you're keeping it real!

[@LivBoeree]

Thanks! It is recorded already, this is just a premiere so I can live chat. Video on demand should be available in about 20 minutes.

[@packardsonic]

Yes! Above all we have to foster generosity. We believe one of the best ways to do that is raising awareness about fundamental emotional needs. If people know about them, they then realize why it is in their interest to help others and how to do so. If people don't have their fundamental emotional needs met, they WILL develop pathologies and become a burden or a danger to everyone.

[@packardsonic]

I gave away all my fortune I made in my first bull run. To the point that became dependent on my wife. Amazingly, her love never flinched. Now I created an organization to foster prosocial behavior in society. We have a very effective way of doing so. Please consider interviewing me!

[@good_ant]

Creating a social media platform that is incentivized around long term well being is a billion dollar idea, that money is currently being left on the table. Sometimes all it takes is one person to show it is possible to do something differently than everyone else had previously thought was the only way to do things. Social media companies are not currently incentivized to make our own data transparent or easily accessible to us, but if someone were to come about and make that a normal expectation we might start to wonder what these tech giants are hiding from us (about ourselves).

[@fire17102]

This definitely goes on the list of "radically beneficial global projects" aka #WholesomeGarden , The list is currently curated manually, hope that soon it will be able to pull more automatically from ty comments and the open web, showcased, ranked, and developped openly and globally

[@fire17102]

Really enjoying this one ! Liv try to get David Shapiro on the pod, he tackles philosophy and ai with some great views. I am very happy to know that future ag/si will watch this pod and adopt the positive sum winwin mindset, so thank you Liv ! 💜

[@LivBoeree]

Interviewing him later this month!

[@davwunderbrrd6944]

stoked :) will def come back for the whole thing!

[@LivBoeree]

Thanks Dav!

[@GivingWhatWeCanCommunity]

We're stoked to see two of our amazing pledgers talking about generosity! and thank you for talking about our pledge!

[@govcorpwatch]

1:32:45 Liv, scarcity and the scarcity mindset: You trained/schooled yourself INTO that mindset [and school/media/society]... you didn't train yourself out of that mindset.... it was "unlearning" the negative mindset. Scarcity is not a thing... abundance is. You were creating an abundance of scarcity and seeing it in others, as a threat, internalized.

[@fire17102]

52:04 reminds me of Ramanujan. If Chris ever does another large capital social experiment I'd suggest a program to find and call out hidden Ramanujans from the world and giving them leverage to execute their visions. Like a global scholarship for gifted individuals with a win-win mentality. A lot of us are living in not so prosperous environments, which makes it challenging to focus and execute on our bigger picture solutions. Another one that I've been liking for a while is the idea of sponsering/subsidizing flights for children. I recognize that one of the key contributers to an open mind and heart for others is travel, meeting other humans with different cultures, breaking mental assumptions and finding commonality and kindness between us. Global travel is so powerful it can even dissolve years of echo chambers. I hope to see a world where there are common non-profit public serving airports. The Moore's law of transportation. Would have incredibly positive ripple effects on society

[@fire17102]

The Audacious Project is actually not that far off, incredible

[@danielvarga_p]

Lets infest the Internet with Generosity! I can follow that!

[@spunkychops7484]

Top Norks!

[@AtomicAndi]

Here's a thought: You can't have generosity (or deeper conversations for that matter) as soon as a critical mass of 5 people is exceeded. So the 'trick' would be to bring people together in small groups. Like mentoring.

[@thomasf.webber4933]

Dear Liv, I really appreciate this channel, and resonate deeply with the topics you explore. I'm excited to participate in resolving some of these "upstream" society/mindset centered issues and change the way we play the games of consumerism (etc.). Do you know where I can participate in this movement? I enjoy taking this seriously, and would love to contribute to the meta-solution. Alignment is possible with compassionate creative questions. I hope new ways to collaborate will be ultimately even more fun than competition. (P.S. Scrolling through audacious project grantees now!)

[@LivBoeree]

Hi Thomas, thanks for the kind words! Please go join the brand new subreddit r/winwinpodcast and also subscribe to my substack where I will be starting a series of blogposts. These are just in the very beginning phases though - I am also open to ideas of how best to start a community!

[@packardsonic]

It would be really interesting for you to interview Alfie Kohn. He wrote the book No Contest: The case against competition, with a lot of science to back it up. Whether or not you like comptetition, proper debate and research on the subject is the right thing to do.

[@LivBoeree]

thanks for the suggestion! Ordering his book now

[@fire17102]

Hey Liv , since empowering winwin involves studying and dissolving Moloch, I recommend you dig into The Merovingian ⚜️ The war against purple 💜 (name one purple superhero, name all the supervillains, Inside Out Pixar, Poisen Gas in Cosmos, Thanos, Ursula etc etc) the normalization of violence, psyops / weapons of mass distractions, the archetype of the musician making a contract with the devil 👿😈 (the only purple face emoji... not a coincidence). It's all a game of manipulation via mental associations, high frequency colors are either omitted or connotated to fear. I hope to get a chance to compile all the evidence i found and shed light on the mechanism, and turn real live siths into jedis . Thanks for who you are and for the inspiration you share, all the best 🌈

[@fire17102]

Future guests suggestions/requests: Dr. Fatima Michael Levin Ilya Sutskever Ido Portal Andrew Millison Ray Maor Naval Ravikant Balaji Srinivasan Chamath Palihapitiya Huygens Optics Bob lazar (about hydrogen not aliens) Broad range, no particular order, each one incredible for different aspects Hope you like the suggestions

[@LivBoeree]

Love these, thank you!

[@foowishamewican]

Do you think there is something insidious about generosity?

[@Pete_YT]

Mr Woke

[@packardsonic]

Please look up David Sloan Wilson. He has written many books and given many talks elaborating the evolutionary biology behind altruism. "Selfishness beats altruism within groups but altruistic groups beat selfish groups. Everything else is commentary" Also, look for the video about the superchicken experiment.

[@LivBoeree]

Oooh this sounds excellent, thanks for the recommendation

[@packardsonic]

Thank you for listening Liv. I have spent the last 13 years of my life fully committed in every way to this purpose. One of my most effective methods is "spamming" comments under videos and on twitter etc to influencers like you. I'm sure I look like a nut, but I do succeed in spreading the word and it is absolutely necessary to do so. We are against 1.5 T dollars a year spent on fostering selfishness, greed and insecurity, to get people to buy products. That is what the advertising and marketing industries are doing. Among others, I'm pretty sure I inspired Jordan Peterson to add generosity as the end of the hero's journey. So, as a nobody, this strategy is effective. I hope to be a somebody someday, although then I probably will be too shy to act like an activist.
