Philosophy Mondays: Human-AI Collaboration
Today's Philosophy Monday is an important interlude. I want to reveal that I have not been writing the posts in this series entirely by myself. Instead I have been working with Claude, not just for the graphic illustrations, but also for the text. My method has been to write a rough draft and then ask Claude for improvement suggestions. I will expand this collaboration to other intelligences going forward, including open source models such as Llama and DeepSeek. I will also explore other moda...

Web3/Crypto: Why Bother?
One thing that keeps surprising me is how quite a few people see absolutely nothing redeeming in web3 (née crypto). Maybe this is their genuine belief. Maybe it is a reaction to the extreme boosterism of some proponents who present web3 as bringing about a libertarian nirvana. From early on I have tried to provide a more rounded perspective, pointing to both the good and the bad that can come from it as in my talks at the Blockstack Summits.

NOTE: I will resume posting excerpts from my book World After Capital next Monday.
The field for the 2020 Democratic Party presidential primary has over a dozen declared candidates, including widely known names such as Senators Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, Cory Booker and Bernie Sanders. And on top that there are people like former Mayor Michael Bloomberg and former Vice President Joe Biden who could enter the race at any time and immediately be contenders. And yet all of these voices are extremely similar in one crucial way: they all believe that we should fix the Industrial Age society we live in today. Whether that is with a pro-business agenda (if Bloomberg runs) or with a socialist agenda (Sanders) or something in-between, it is fundamentally thinking that is rooted in the past.
But there is one candidate, Andrew Yang, who offers a truly forward looking alternative with Universal Basic Income as one of his three core platform elements. Andrew knows we need to finally get past the Industrial Age
So head over to Yang2020 now and be part of the insurgency of new ideas. Get more Yang for your buck!
