ever-increasing ways to improve the human condition The World is in a Race Between implementing and the seemingly ever-increasing complexity and scale of global problems. Global Collective Intelligence can help… Win the Race

How can sustainable development be achieved for all while addressing global climate change? 1 How can everyone have sufficient clean water without conflict? 2 How can population growth and resources be brought into balance? 3 How can genuine democracy emerge from authoritarian regimes? 4 How can policymaking be made more sensitive to global long-term perspectives? 5 How can the global convergence of information and communications technologies work for everyone? 6 How can ethical market economies be encouraged to help reduce the gap between rich and poor? 7 How can the threat of new and reemerging diseases and immune microorganisms be reduced? 8 How can the capacity to decide be improved as the nature of work and institutions change? 9 How can shared values and new security strategies reduce ethnic conflicts, terrorism, and the use of weapons of mass destruction? 10 How can the changing status of women improve the human condition? 11 How can transnational organized crime networks be stopped from becoming more powerful and sophisticated global enterprises? 12 How can growing energy demands be met safely and efficiently? 13 How can scientific and technological breakthroughs be accelerated to improve the human condition? 14 How can ethical considerations become more routinely incorporated into global decisions? 15 How can sustainable development be achieved for all while addressing global climate change? How can everyone have sufficient clean water without conflict? How can population growth and resources be brought into balance? How can genuine democracy emerge from authoritarian regimes? How can decisionmaking be enhanced by integrating improved global foresight during unprecedented accelerating change? How can the global convergence of information and communications technologies work for everyone? How can ethical market economies be encouraged to help reduce the gap between rich and poor? How can the threat of new and reemerging diseases and immune microorganisms be reduced? How can education make humanity more intelligent, knowledgeable, and wise enough to address its global challenges? How can shared values and new security strategies reduce ethnic conflicts, terrorism, and the use of weapons of mass destruction? How can the changing status of women improve the human condition? How can growing energy demands be met safely and efficiently? How can scientific and technological breakthroughs be accelerated to improve the human condition? How can ethical considerations become more routinely incorporated into global decisions? How can transnational organized crime networks be stopped from becoming more powerful and sophisticated global enterprises? Framework for understanding Global Change: 15 Global Challenges

When this begins to happen, the speed of increasing AI’s intelligence will be far faster and produce more change than Moore’s Law by responding to feedback from sensor networks worldwide, will accelerate AI’s intelligence worldwide… moment by moment Artificial Intelligence … that can autonomously “write” and improve its code…

What is possible… will change Moore’s Law + Artificial Intelligence acceleration to AGI + Computational science These three together will change what we think is possible.

Inevitability of New Economics 1.Concentration of wealth is increasing 2.Income gaps are widening 3.Employment-less economic growth seems the new normal 4.Return on investment in capital and technology is usually better than labor 5.Number of persons per services & products is falling % unemployment is a business-as-usual forecast by 2050 without new economic approaches 7.Need for national long-range strategic planning workshops

Guaranteed income – cash flow projection elements Income to Government License and tax Robots Carbon Tax Tobin tax – on international financial transfers Eliminate tax havens Universal minimum corporate tax Own percent of corporations Tax massive wealth growth like some IT Lower annual cost of guaranteed income Consolidate welfare programs (unemployment payments, etc.) into the guaranteed income AI/robotics lowers to cost of living Free or very low cost health, education, transportation, and energy Factors to consider National service; Minimum annual public work Phase in from work to “next” what every post-job/employment will be Different incomes in different areas, countries Can you both work income and guaranteed income?

Dense particles normally circling Earth, deep inside the magnetosphere, can extend a long arm out to meet – and help block – incoming solar material.
