• Complete [Think of society as a human computation

• process of sentence development

• I think you are not only "writing what you want to write," but also "gathering an overwhelming amount of facts and creating a story from them.

  • It's a little different than having something to write about and supporting it with facts.
  • What was "originally intended to be written" is only tentative and subject to change

• This is Jiro Kawakita-esque.

  • The first story I was going to write was just a plan for exploration.
  • Discover things you didn't know at first by actually exploring
  • What you think about after you know is better than what you initially planned
  • So the original plan is scrapped.
  • However, endless discarding will not complete the writing forever, so make the best of what you have, and be open to future criticism.
    • I'm not afraid of getting too much criticism for what I write, I think it's useful.
      • Cumulative effect of ideas
      • Social Triggers

• The cost of collecting facts is now much lower.

  • It used to be that you'd look it up first and then realize, "This could be used to describe the relationship between A and B."
  • Now, if I think, "Oh, I'm missing a description of the relationship between A and B," I can have AI collect that.
  • Example: Taiwan's Digital Democracy and Ethereum.

Futarchy

I'm lazy with the feeling that I need to write.

• I think I was going to attend, I realized after the meeting was over.
• It's bad enough that they didn't schedule it at the time they knew about it in the first place.

Split tasks

• Write a story about the IIDOBATA system

• Write a response to the assumed question "Can money decide things?" after the forecasted market.

  • Depends on the theme.

• Letting the Algorithm Do Its Thing

  • It's outrageous to leave governance to an AI."
    • If you don't leave 0% to AI, it's a misconception as if you leave 100% to AI.
    • In fact, there are areas of social systems that are better automated by algorithms.
    • Thinking of social systems not vaguely as a single lump, but rather as subdivided and specific.
      • For example, referring to the concept of separation of powers and dividing it into legislative, judicial, and executive
      • To establish rules, to determine whether the rules are being followed, and to implement them according to the rules.
      • Wouldn't it be better to automate the administration, which is given a set of rules and executes them, with an algorithm?

I have to go outside to get lunch, but it's too hot and I don't feel like doing it.

When it came time to go to the convenience store, I wanted something gutsy like garlic rice and sanzokuyaki.

I want to be perceived as interesting by interesting people. Will you join the engineering team that an organization is trying to create?

• No, I don't intend to."

• 'My current company gives me enough pay and discretion so I don't have to eat into their coffers.'

• So you're involved in an advisory capacity?

• I think I'd be involved, but whether or not it was a good idea to get a formal title wasn't answered at the time.

  • I'm starting to feel like I don't have to have it.
  • I don't think there's any benefit to having it.
  • There is a disadvantage, if you are formally a member of an organization, people who want to demean the organization will attack you like "Nishio, a member of the organization, said this".
  • It's more in the form of "I exchange ideas with you from time to time, but I'm not from your organization."

• What is the lack of benefit of having, and what is

  • The buffs you get from it don't really lead to what you want to get.
  • Of course, there will be some sort of recognition from people who didn't appreciate me before, and some sort of new communication will occur, but I don't really appreciate that.
    • Maybe this should be evaluated, in terms of barbell strategy.
    • But I'm not too excited.
  • What is it that you want to gain?
    • →Want to be recognized as interesting by interesting people.
