What values would they be built on?

Our Group Labels Are a Big Problem

2025/09/17

Our group labels are a big problem, and they are being used to manipulate us.Humans are so caught up in our group labels that we don't realize the effect it is having on our society. Group labels divide us, and make society-wide group problem solving very difficult. Problems should be solved one at a time by ideas, not by adherence to labels. Our allegiance should be to the solution, and the solution should be tied to metrics and results, always open to criticism and improvement.The human drive to

The Rationalist - Society of Problem Solvers Podcast ·

2025/06/01

In this episode we introduce the idea of running systems of people using a newly enhanced form of epistemology known as collective "swarm" intelligence. We also explain how the principles in Tim Urban's book "What's Our Problem?" teach us how to make what he calls "genies" (but we just call groups of high trust problem solvers). We begin to uncover how physicist David Deutsch and Karl Popper's theories on epistemology are enhanced with collective intelligence and the right digital systems used to
