Changing the world is changing mindsets, because they direct actions, people direct actions and laws etc just are these people’s will put in a more formal form.
Now, we’re not going to move the world’s mindset by pointing at one more thing that’s wrong with it. Mindset moves by example, not by argument or complaining.
Allow me to give an example:
I was doing a visit the other day, with a group of 15 people in the city. There was some trash on the floor in a park. Most people passed by, 2 of them complained that there was trash, even though there was a bin right next to it. I didn’t say anything, I just picked up the trash (which wasn’t dirty or anything, just cans and stuff) and put it in the bin next to it. I did this because I understand that people aren’t defined, they act as per their environment. The more pristine a place, the less chance of someone leaving trash there, so removing trash is the best way to avoid having new one be added (and also bitching about it useless).
A few people behaving like this is all it takes to set an example and change the world.
Don’t try to change everyone. Instead, pick the one thing, understand the system, know what you want changed, and then do it yourself. You will need some marketing knowledge to spread it past yourself, empathy to know how it lands on someone else, capitalism or politics to push it through the systems that decide, history to know why it’s stuck the way it is in the first place…
PauseAI uses these principles to work, this is where I learned them.
The Story of AI is telling a story to inspire people in the direction I want (not finished). A story is a deal, indeed, and we use them to set our direction as a people.
