Technology to Manage a New Society
Technology to Manage a New Society
I just finished listening to The Santiago Boys podcast about the attempts to use cybernetics to run the Chilean economy under Allende in the early 70s. It was very interesting and got me wondering what kinds of technology (hardware or software) that you have come across that you think would be good for managing resources/efforts and democratising society.
What tools do you think could empower people?
You're viewing a single thread.
The tools are already readily available:
Relational Databases
SAT solvers
The missing bit is social action, which no amount of software can solve.
Yeah, it's not about automating the decision making, but making the tools available for when the will is present.
The tools are already readily available under FSF approved licenses. https://www.gnu.org/licenses/licenses.en.html
