[@thefartist]

what was thought provoking about it?

[@theoldme5924]

This simultaneously filled me with hope and existential dread. All I know is that I need to play my part.

[@ZaZen___]

Existential dread is natural and I feel it too, its just our body telling us to be careful when going into the unknown. Yes we have risk of nuclear war climate collapse etc, but if you look at the graphs and follow Seba's work, collapses are of course a drop in quality of life compared to what was previous, but even collapses don't go all the way back to the stone age, they usually result in a 25% dip in base metrics of quality. This is a dark point, and depends on your personality, for me accepting an impending collapse helps me stay calm enough to chart a positive way forward to help avoid it. If I'm too afraid of the collapse, I shut down and can't work to prevent it. I work in transforming our energy systems, so I definitely can't be shutting down and need to do my part to break through to the positive new age. Hope this helps, I think compassion and empathy will also be a new part of the new age based on creation. So yeah I empathize with your fear but we have lots to look forward to as well! Edit: looks like I basically used more words to agree with you:)

[@jthadcast]

you are misquoting, i believe those were the last words of Attila the Hun.

[@JohannVII]

That entire section is utterly ahistorical. (In fact, this video is complete bullshit - it 's a marketing pitch for his scam consultancy.) Bicycles were already displacing horses for personal conveyance (the automobile relied on multiple technologies first developed and used for bicycles, some of which are even cited here, like pneumatic rubber tires), paved roads existed long before the first cars, and the horse was never humanity's primary means of transit in the first place - for trips-taken, that would be walking, almost everywhere, while for kilogram-meters of goods moved, it's boats, back to antiquity. Long-distance freight transportation (and human mass transit) was primarily done by rail by the time cars overtook horses in market share. Almost nothing in that section is accurate: it's like an eight-year-old's understanding of transit technology history gleaned from one grade-school book chapter. The primary "insight" of the video is 1) trite - almost every scammy "entrepreneur" asshole has been talking "disruption" and the rest of the buzzword wordsalad that makes up the entirety of the meaningless "Part 1" for forty years; and 2) wrong - all of these changes are actually long-term transitions that occur slowly. Steam-powered and electric cars were used (though not widely, as public sentiment against them led to bans in many places) for almost 100 years before the first successful internal combustion engine automobile. That is not a rapid "phase change". The "phase change disruption" is just describing MARKET SHARE CAPTURE BY A NEW CAPITALIST FIRM. It's not a law of economics or technology or history, it's an obvious, well-known pattern describing how the transition to a new dominant firm displacing an old one occurs in a given market sector. It's a consequence of our laws, not anything material - we could literally change that pattern tomorrow if we wanted, because it's based on something completely socially constructed.

[@DonNorris]

To get where you're going, you need a map. This is sort of a brainstorm for how to build the map we need. Slipping the leash of mere detail, it runs out into the wider space where imagination can flourish unconstrained. Profoundly hopeful. Despite the necessary absence of specificities, it builds from past human experience to envision human civilization after our current reality of slash, burn and move on industrialisation. Definitely worth sharing widely.

[@marksharman8029]

Our leaders make the problem increasingly more difficult. Because of the underlying corruption within our systems. A change of heart and mind is required for our species to get through the next change.

[@Rnankn]

This is real. The problems outlined are happening now. I think their view of history as convergences leading to innovations overlooks the social forces of conflict. And that is why I am resistant to the optimistic vision of the future, enabled by technology. It conveniently preserves existing privilege and wealth, and, crucially, the mindset that brought us to this moment. We should be clear, there is a good chance at this point of unmanaged collapse and death spiral. Yet, I would welcome being wrong. What’s key is to acknowledge the exhaustion of the status-quo, and plan cooperatively for a common future. Change is now inevitable, but not the contours of that change. What terrifies me is the total abdication of leadership, a public discourse focused on past conflicts, and plans being made for world that won’t exist. So while they may be overpromising here, they are asking the right questions, and that is a debate worth having.

[@ozzitor8]

You have expressed exactly my thoughts and feelings. As a socialist myself, I’m too aware of power dynamics and material realities to jump into blind optimism. Having said that, and assuming the predictions exposed in this video come to fruition, I’m eager to see it. While the authors of this video don’t use the framework I’m most familiar with, if we achieve these changes then private ownership of the means of production would be pretty useless when needs can be cheaply met. True freedom for all would be the norm. That’s a future I long to see.

[@kimwarburton8490]

with abundance and distributed, local, more democratic production, as with home rooftop solar pv generation of energy vrs centralised mega-companies with no real competition, im not so worried. But frankly, i will also grab onto hope. I need to be able to function in today's world XD The majority of people dont want conflict. Conflict naturally happens due to lack of food, water, soil fertility and religion. I think we might see localised societal collapse/resource wars etc in parts of the world where those are already scarce and countries low on the socio-economic scale and of course mass immigration, but 'new' lands will also open up, such as greenland and northern parts of canada and russia. I think at worst, we in higher socio-economic countries might end up with more draconian governing, esp during the more acute phases of transition and while the climate destabilises and finds a new equilibrium, but i think the stuff we need and want for a moderate life will be more equally distributed, less inequality than in todays world. I am less worried about what our gov will look like vrs habitable climate. I would rather be a slave in babylonian times than free in a post-modern apocalyptic world XD

[@ZaZen___]

Yeah because elites with sociopathic tendencies were successful in the old system. I think we should actually start working to "appreciate them for their services in the 20th century", instead of just switching to rebel against them. When I apply some empathy, I realize it's probably super confusing for them, because their actions have been praised by the old mindset for so long.

[@petermartin8579]

I seem to be alone in the comments here in thinking that this video doesn't answer any questions about how we reach this new age of 'freedom' and limitless superabundant food/wellbeing/energy etc. It's not enough to say we need to 'rethink' things. What exactly is the end result of this rethinking? Nor is it enough to say we need a 'map' to the future. What is on this map? More importantly, what is not on this 'map'? The future isn't certain. What do we need to do to overcome the things that will go wrong that we cannot, at this stage, predict? The video comes over like a religious sermon. It's full of aspirations of hope and promises of a wonderful future but bereft of any concrete suggestions or idea of how it might be achieved. The creators of the video seem to revel in the idea of 'disruption' without minding who might suffer from it. Worse still, it implies that it is us that will be responsible for the inevitable 'dark age' that will follow if we don't 'believe' in this vaguely defined map to the 'age of freedom and super-abundance'. If there isn't any meaningful detail then this is all just vacuous, utopian guff.

[@RichardRagan]

The article works well in discussing collapse of societies. It discusses technological breakthroughs that have helped society advance. However, it makes the same tired mistake of equating technological breakthroughs with solving society collapse. I doubt that any technology has ever prevented a country’s collapse. The only social function humans have to-date to prevent collapse is: revolution. Societal collapse is sometimes a product of running out of resources, like the Mayans or Aztecs. But most of the time it is due to (what we all intuitively know): 1) Centralization of money & power (Money gives more power to the billionaires who can bribe anyone. They influence our politicians to give them even more money and power, widening the social inequality, destabilizing the civilization) 2) Dirty, divisive politics (those in government, corporations, and the wealthy who serve them) 3) Increasing domination by the super-rich 4) Societal imbalance, serving mainly the super-rich, leads to eventual collapse of the civilization, due to ignoring looming problems, food shortages or global warming, etc We don’t need a new technology, but a new social function similar to the invention of democracy, where a society in collapse can reset the imbalance of billionaires and toxic politics. Revolution is one mechanism, but that takes courage, and the will to put down your smartphone and actively resist the power structure. Those who have struggled to gain power will never willingly give it up. The societal collapse and revolution are the only reset buttons humans have discovered over the last 30,000 years. Collapse not a technology issue, it’s a social issue.

[@DonKlemencic]

Dear Sirs, I just rewatched your KZbin production, “Rethinking Humanity - A Film by RethinkX”. I have been watching Adam Dorr’s series, “Brighter” (I previously read the book) and I noticed a new category of disruption not mentioned in this original production: Labor. (You seem to be continually “rethinking” 😊). I wanted to share my thoughts on this new category: Economic productivity has always been limited by demographics--specifically, the number of qualified workers available to do the many tasks required. Consequently, productive wealth has usually been limited to growth of a few percentage points annually, and in very unusual circumstances a bit more than ten percent annually. And economics has always been about managing scarcity. This is prelude to saying I do not fear the unemployment that AI and robotics will bring. Obviously, the economic cycle requires both supply and demand to function, so there seems to be a paradox: AI and robotics eliminate the labor limit on supply--it can grow explosively by devoting a substantial portion of output to new productive capacity; but simultaneously, it destroys demand by eliminating wage income. Hence UBI in some sense becomes essential. And since demand must be commensurate with supply, the “Basic” in UBI will not imply something meager. It must grow with the exploding growth to be effective in completing the economic cycle. The obvious source of revenue for UBI would be a tax on the commercial use of robots. A portion of what would otherwise be used to pay a human worker would be used to pay the tax. And since, in time, there will be many robots for each former wage earner, this revenue will be very ample. Of course, a great portion of the demand will be communal, such as stopping the damage to the biosphere and then repairing it, as discussed by Adam Dorr in Brighter. The Labor disruption seems to directly address the danger of “crashing upward” you mentioned. The “Universal” in UBI means “Global”. Diplomacy supported by massive “Marshall Plans” might be used to share the economic model of abundance around the world. That should make international politics (as well as local and regional politics) much more benevolent. We will have to deal with cultural issues. Religiously conservatives may quote Genesis 3:19. "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread." We are on the verge of this becoming obsolete. An echo of this sentiment is found in the disparagement of "the dole", and the supposedly necessary association of wage labor with meaning in life. Adam Dorr, in Brighter, distinguishes between toil and work. Toil is what most people (and more generally, most animals!) have had to do to "make a living", but work can be refocused on doing what does give meaning to our lives. Economics becomes redefined from management of scarcity to management of abundance. The new mind-set of abundance will have profoundly positive consequences. Think of Steven Pinker’s book “The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined”. The process he describes is driven by economic improvement of the general human condition, driven historically by the Industrial Revolution. With the coming Labor disruption, we may hope that sociopathy will largely disappear in an environment of comprehensive prosperity. Together with the other disruptions I have hope that a profound biophilia will become the worldwide personal norm. What will people do with their time? Some people are fortunate enough to have employment that they love, and that gives them personal meaning. They may continue such activities, not to “make a living” but avocationally: doing what they want to do for personal fulfillment. Some items (e.g., original works of great art) by their very nature must remain “scarce” and represent an exception to the economy of abundance. Everyone will be free to work for money in pursuit of these exceptional items. We need a disruption in education, with AI and Robotics together with human teachers participating because it’s what they love to do. It will be individually focused on each student to nourish their interests and talents. There will be a temporary problem of the currently poorly educated adult that will need to be addressed, but it will be temporary. A portion of the commercial robot tax revenue could be directed to funding remedial programs to support these people.

I would suggest that soil degradation is the primary cause of these ancient civilisations failing. The farmers around the first towns and cities chopped down the trees to create pasture. Then their goats cropped the vegetation down to soil level. The remaining vegetation was then trampled by livestock into bare patches of soil. Next the wind lifted the soil - or the rains washed it away into the rivers. This is what happened with the civilisations in the Middle East and eastern and northern Africa (Egypt and Carthage) -today - all areas of dry desert. And because the Romans had degraded their own lands - they had to import their grain from North Africa. Today we can see this happening in southern Madagascar, amongst other places, where rainforests were cleared less than two decades ago, the grassland cover then destroyed by goats, and today - the dry soils are being ripped away by winds. This is not the effects of global warming - this is the stupidity of mankind.

Amazing insights. A civilisation always has a choice either to preserve a status quo (e.g. cancellation culture) and collapse or to transform: energy, AI, transportation will be the first wave and information exchange (Neuralink) and agriculture (planetary degradation will continue for the next 20 years) to be the second. Plus becoming multiplanetary around 30s-40s. Despite of the ups and downs the civilisation has always been moving to reducing the “needing” threshold to achieve the age of abundance to liberate itself. Today, there is such an opportunity: increasing sustainability with accumulation of capital needed for future transitions (should be balanced though with stock market to be the most democratic solution currently). Populist governments which were well suited for the industrial mass production of the 20th century would have to transform to become more of coordinator CEOs (due to the rise of a household sustainability). It would have to abandon the cancellation culture and be open to listen to all voices since people would become more independent. Then it could be extrapolated internationally to follow as a northern star. PS. A centralised civilisation is always prioritising either land (resources) or people (slaves, feudalism, communism) as an asset. Cancellation culture was the first bell. Mars colonisation (land expansion), sustainable energy (resources expansion), AI (productivity expansion) should balance the situation for the next 20 years so the “system” should not opt going for people. It indeed needs some revectoring.

7:40 The rise of agriculture coincides with a period of exceptional Sun stability. Meaning it had been invented & experimented with for a long time, but the environment kept it non-viable at scale.

[@jackinthebox301]

There's a few things in here like that. Mostly true, but missing a key perspective. Like the post Rome dark age had more to do with collapse in agriculture due to volcanic eruptions and another Solar minimum than anything sociopolitical. Hell, I'm still not convinced climate change is anything more than a prolonged solar maximum. The baseline measure is "pre-industrial levels", but we were coming out of a little ice age immediately prior to the Industrial Revolution. We should still stop polluting, of course, but do humans really have that much power over the planet? I don't think the premise of the video is wrong, but globalism is not the answer. After all, decentralizing everything is a direct competitor to globalism. The bureaucrats in whatever government, be it local or global, will actively fight against the things that give their constituents *real* freedom from the influence of the bureaucrat.

The current productive systems obviously have significant momentum. Even when economic incentives favour the disruption there may be elements of the productive and organisational systems that recognise opportunities in the short term to take advantage of that momentum. Will that delay the disruption significantly? Love your work.

8:18 Grow or be outgrown, that's totally different from the idea of civilisation collapse you shared at the beginning. Here it's just competition, humanity as a whole will always benefit from it.

[@alexforget]

The greater threat to humanity at this point is socialism/communism. When there is a lot of change, the best possible solution has been to let people try things, to be free to experiment, to fail, and ultimately succeed. If instead, we give too much power to the government or central planning we are doomed to try just on big, slow failed experiment without a plan B. We must allow innovators try things and push forward, and use government power only to protect the common good (air, water, land) and people

[@timothyfay5117]

I am also wary of unaccountable, clumsy government (and of communists)... but remember when that investor said "we need to move towards cooperation and human participation"? For me, socialism is economic democracy and cooperation, the opposite of central planning and bureaucracy! We need to end the competition for growth that has caused extraction and exploitation of humans and ecosystem. We can plan collectively, in a decentralized way, to meet all human needs together!

A libertarian and a social democrat go into a bar…

It is evident to me that poor people fare better under a socialist regime, but capitalism delivers the goods. Not a lot of social stratification in Cuba; they get restless when comparing their lot to that of their relatives in the States. Maybe there's room for both in a less ideologically driven future.

[@FreeXenon]

They fail to talk about inequality and competition as prime movers of exploitation and war, and what to do about it, how do we get beyond it. As long as profit, competition , and nation states exist a movement to a better world is never going to be possible. Either humanity evolve beyond monetary systems and trade or we vote for extinction.

Facts!

[@aclassmedicine3306]

Now is the time! The Space Age has finished the dress rehearsal.

[@xqt39a]

Optimistic to the max !! Jesus said the poor will always be with us so we might not want to push that one.

[@carlwilson8859]

People said that Jesus said.

Best documentary ever seen in my entire life. Very good work. Now its our turn to spead it!

[@ForestFisk]

Hey, I want to be a part of this new world. Count me in.

pinker?

I think we also need to think about competing land uses and potential damage to the ecosystem (transmission and distribution grid infrastructure as well). These tend to not be factored into the financial models of renewables. Solar and wind farms take up a lot of spaces. A 100% renewable future seems to work fine in theory if you have unlimited land area with no other competing use cases. But like in anything else you never want to put all your eggs in one basket. We’ll need some diversification into hydro, geothermal, nuclear, tidal energy, and possibly carbon capture storage if we want to pursue zero carbon future and also protect the ecosystem. We don’t want to end up creating a solar-powered dystopia like the one in Blade Runner 2049.

[@jamiecollins6832]

Well great news we are blowing everything up so much easier to build new stuff

[@ningen7736]

Reading comments makes me even more certain that humanity really does just need to be put on a leash. Seriously how can you watch a video like this by billionaire elites and not be creeped out about becoming their dog but actually excited enough to lick their boots?

[@ozzitor8]

I mean, you’re not wrong. But I guess it depends on the angle. I’m a whole ass socialist so to me the danger is this so-called utopia becomes a thinly-veiled feudalist resurgence where corporations and billionaires own everything and we rent it from them forever. However, I can also see how for a conservative this means the end of social conventions around work, and money are threatened. Making a ton of money to be freer than others might be pointless. Regardless, this video was a thought-provoking experience for sure.

[@jonjonsson2369]

BRILLIANT !!
