2005-8: The of Centrobank THe INrRoDUcrIoN of the international Centrobank was the last great act of governfnent before governments grew much less important. It was not a conception of policy-making governments at all, but emerged from the first computerized town meeting of the world. By 2005 the gap in income and expectations between the rich and poor nations was recognized to be man's most dangerous problem. The satellite TC system and two-way cable television channels in sixty-eight countries invited their viewers to participate in a computer conference about it, in the form of a series of weekly TC programs. Recommendations tapped in by viewers were to be tried out on a computer model of the world economy. If recommendations were shown by the model to be likely to make the world economic situation worse, they were lntroduction t sl l THE 2025 REPORT to be discarded. If recommendations were reported by the model to make the economic situation in poor couptries better, they were to be retained for "ongoing computer analysis" in the next program. In 2025 it is easy to see this as a forerunner of the TC conferences which play so large a part in our lives today, both as pastime and as the principal innovative device in business. But the truth about this 2005 breakthrough tends to irk the highbrows. It succeeded because it was initially a rather downmarket network television program. This is illustrated by the fact that the two gold-medal-winning telecommuters who were eventually acclaimed for contributing most to Centrobank's birth were Mr. S. C. Hu, the thoughtful and rich retired merchant of Taipeh in Taiwan, and Mr. Bjorn Heglund, the earnest young subpostmaster from the Kiruna district of north Sweden. Neither would conceivably have been consulted if a conference on the subject had been called mainly among the best-educated economists of 2005. About 400 million people watched the first program, and 3 million individuals or groups tapped in suggestions. Around 99 per cent of these were rejected by the computer as being likely to increase the unhappiness of mankind. It became known that these rejects included suggestions submitted by the World Council of Churches (whose "Charter 2006" was reported by the computer to be likely to increase unhappiness among 87 per cent of the population of the world) and by many other pressure groups. This still left 31,000 suggestions that were accepted by the computer model as worthy of ongoing analysis. As these were honed, and details were added to the most interestitg, an exciting consensus began to emerge. Later programs were watched by nearly a billion people as it became recognized that something important was being born. These audiences were swollen by successful telegimmicks. The presenter of the opening part of the first program was a roly-poly professor who was that year's Nobel laureate in economics, and who proved a natural television personality. He explained that economists now agreed that aid programs could 52 2005-8: The Introduction of Centrobank sometimes help poor countries, but sometimes most definitely made their circumstances worse. When Mexico was inflating at over 80 per cent a year in the early 1980s, the inflow to it of huge loanable funds made its inflation even faster and its crash more certain. The professor set Mexico's 1979-81 economy on the model, pumped in the loaned funds and showed how all the indicators (higher inflation, lower real gross domestic product, and so on) then flashed red, signalling an economy getting worse, rather than green, signalling an economy getting better. He followed this with similar examples from several other poor countries in Latin America and Africa during 1950-85. The professor then put the model back to mirror the contemporary world economy of 2005, and played into it various nostrums that had been recommended by politicians of left, right and center, but mostly left. The dials generally flashed red. Then the professor provided another set of recommendations, and asked any viewers who wished to play to tap in their own guesses for the consequent movements in twenty economic variables in the model. Those who got their guesses right to within a set error were told they had qualified for the second round of a knock-out economic guesstimators' world championship. Knock-out competitions of this sort continued for ordinary users of two-way TCs throughout the series of programs. In the second part of that first program the presenters dared to introduce two political problems into the game. They said that government-to-government aid programs had been particularly popular among politicians during the age of overgovernment, but there was growing agreement that government- to-government aid was the worst method of hand-out. The excessive role played by governments in many poor countries was one of the barriers to their economic advance, and a main destroyer of their people's freedom. Could anybody think it would have been wise to give aid to President Mbogo? In consequence, the most successful economic aid programs had been those operated through the International Monetary Fund, which imposed conditions on how borrowing governments should operate. The professor showed that IMF-moni- 53 THE 2025 REPORT tored operations in most years had brought more green flashes from the model than red, which few other sorts of schemes had done. But this involved IMF officials-often from the rich countries- in telling governments of poor countries what to do; and one of the objectives of the initiative called for by President Kennedy was precisely to diminish such embarrassments. The first questions to be asked in the next few programs, said the compilers, were (l) which countries should qualify for aid?; and, having decided that , (2) up to what limits and conditions?; and (3) through what mechanisms? They promised that later programs after the first half-dozen would examine how any scheme could be used to diminish the power of governments and increase the power of free markets and free people. The first stage of this computerized town meeting of the world went remarkably well. A consensus quickly emerged that poor countries which agreed to join a club with certain libertarian nrles (the principal ones were that markets instead of politicians should set prices; there should be fairly free trade, and fairly free immigration of people and businesses from countries richer than themselves; human rights cases should be referred to an international supreme court) could also have access to the benefits of a new international central bank called the "Centrobank." The Centrobank should be a body which relied very little on the discretion of its governor, but much more on a computer program. This program should authorize the Centrobank to print enough new foreign exchange called bancor for any applicant country below a certain income per head to allow its internal economic growth to proceed at the fastest possible noninflationary pace but not by one penny faster. The Centrobank's computer would monitor each recipient country's economy to see if inflationary or other strains were appearing, and would signal that Centrobank must cut off new supplies of artificially created foreign exchange if they did. Contemporary critics said in triple self-contradiction that (a) this scheme was so insulting to poor countries' governments 54 2005-8: The Introduction of Centrobonk that few would agree to join it; (b) all poor countries would flock to eat at this trough and there would be an impossibly inflationary expansion of world money supply; and that (c) the anti-inflationary terms proffered from the international central bank were so tough that this would still allow only painfully slow economic depauperization. Now that the Centrobank has been in operation for nearly twenty years we know that the answer to (a) is that the government of any poor country that does not join Centrobank is likely to be booted out by its people; that the answer to (b) is that, despite this flood of countries into the scheme, newly created foreign exchange for poor countries has in only one year,2Ol3, exceeded 0.2 per cent of world-wide money supply (WM3); and that the answer to (c) is that progress proved remarkably fast, although that was partly because of the answers that emerged to the second set of questions posed in the next few programs. The second set of questions which arose after about the eighth program rested on what sorts of purchases should qualify for Centrobank payments. Originally the notion had been that the international Centrobank should open foreign exchange clearing accounts to finance non-inflationary purchases by any persons or any groups in qualifying poor countries. The stated aim was that a poor country should not be prevented merely by shortage of foreign exchange from pursuing the fastest possible rate of non-inflationary economic growth. But under the remorseless logic of the computer a bias was soon introduced in favor of financing purchases by citizens in poor countries rather than purchases by their governments.It became clear that projects by cost-disregarding governments in poor countries led more quickly to inflation than projects undertaken either (a) by penny-pinching native entrepreneurs (who began to apPear out of the woodwork in some profusion and in extraordinary places); or (b) by competing multinational corporations on new sorts of performance contracts. If you ask your TCs today, "What were the main evil con- 55 THE 2025 REPORT sequences of the colonial and immediate post-colonial periods in the poor two-thirds of the world?" two of the top answers will be: "The fact that an entrepreneurial class could not emerge as an important political constituency until the introduction of Centrobank after 200 5 :' and "The fact that until Centrobank no mechanism except uncompetitive government was put in place to meet many of the most urgent demands of the poorest three-quarters of the peopl e." Centrobank's solution to the first of these problems owed much to the proposals from Mr. Hu; its solution to the second problem owed much to the proposals from Mr.Heglund. Start with why Mr. Hu's proposals for encouraging entrepreneurs were so important. Growth had taken place in Europe and Japan and North America after 1850 because an entrepreneurial commercial class had become a dominant political influence, replacing the aristocracies in Europe and Japan and the mhlange misdescribed by de Tocqueville in North America. In the immediate post-colonial period in the poor countries circa 1960-2005 power fell instead into the hands of a new class of professional politicians , dt a time when they could temporarily do damaging things inconceivable for professional politicians before or (thank God) since. Their most damaging act was to set "political" instead of market prices. By statutory decree in many poor countries exchange rates and urban wages had been kept too high, food prices to farmers and prices for public utilities kept too low, credit had been allocated by rationin g at negative real interest rates, and imports had been rationed by licences that were immensely profitable to the politicians' brothers-in-law who were corruptly granted them. Even in 2005 every single computer program showed that living standards were increased, inflation brought down, and huppiness and efticiency advanced, when these policies were abandoned. So did every practical example. Call up on your TCs the practical example of Taiwan in the second half of the twentieth century; analysis of its success was the basis for Mr. Hu's proposals for Centrobank. Taiwan in 56 ,N -; .I, tII 20054: The Introduction of Centrobank 1950-2000 had multiplied its real income twentyfold and its dollar exports four-hundredfold because in the 1950s an invading warlord and his soldiers had been impelled by odd circumstances into laissez-faire economic policies against their will; and because Taiwan had thereafter been kept dynamically entrepreneurial largely because of nasty protectionism by rich countries against its exports. When in 1948 the armies of General Chiang Kai-shek fled from the Chinese mainland to Taiw&r, swelling its population overnight, they found an island which relied for over 90 per cent of its exports on rice and sugar. These were two commodities whose sales could not be greatly increased on world markets by dropping their international price. It therefore seemed natural to the incoming soldiers to follow the mistaken policies adopted by so many other authoritarian governments in poor countries all through 1950-2005. For a while they exploited the farmers by keeping internal farm prices too low and Taiwan's international exchange rate artificially high. The soldiers also granted cheap credits to themselves to set up manufacturing businesses. The results of such folly were the usual ones: food production and exports fell; inflation soared to three-digit figures; and foreign exchange holdings collapsed despite huge American aid. The soldiers met this by restricting imports further to protect their infant industries and their disappearing exchange reserves; this sent inflation even higher. As sugar and rice production used up much land in the overcrowded island, real estate prices in particular went through the roof. This economic mess was sadly typical of many newly independent countries at the time, but Taiwan was lucky in being newly dependent instead. General Chiang Kai-shek was at this time entirely dependent politically on the Americans, and he unwillingly agreed to propitiate them by accepting their good advice. He moved in the late 1950s pretty abruptly from the then usual developing-country wrong policies (low prices to farmers; protected home market for manufactures but overvalued exchange rate; subsidized interest rates) to the unfash- 57 THE 2025 REPORT ionable and precisely opposite right policies (market prices for farmers and market-determined exchange rates and interest rates; trade liberalization). The results exceeded all expectations. With its market-determined exchange rate, Taiwan found that its cheap-labor exports of umbrellas et cetera expanded smoothly-until foreign umbrella-makers objected to Taiwan's penetration of their domestic markets; then Taiwan's expansion in that particular product would abmptly stop. So Taiwan grew through its industrial miracle of 1955-2005 knowing that its businesses must find new products for new markets all the time, and that last year's successful firm would often have to close down this year. In consequence of its recognition that bureaucrats cannot know what will be profitable next minute, Taiwan subsidized only one thing apart from its over-large army: its tax and social nonwelfare policies were directed to raising savings from 5 per cent of national income in the 1950s to a Japan-beating 25 per cent in the 1980s. Mr. Hu recommended that the policies furthered by Centrobank in poor countries should be those that had "been furthered by accident in my country, Taiwan:' and he suggested some of the relevant software by which the Centrobank's computer model could put these incentives into effect. He was rather too inclined to argue that "anybody who does not follow these policies should not get Centrobank aid," but the process of ongoing computer analysis synthesized most of this into the messag€, "If you are following Taiwan-type polici€s, then the computer will allow a much higher level of internal expansion before it flashes the signal that inflation is being fostered so that further Centrobank creation for you must stop." As the coordinating Nobel laureate said when presenting Mr. Hu with one of the two gold medals: His software provided one of the two quantum leaps that turned Centrobank into a success. Although the 1955-2005 Taiwan-type policies hugely expanded national income, the pressure groups in favor of them are entrepreneurs who do 58 2005J; The Introduction of Centrobank not come into being until the policies have already been introduced. In most poor countries that have been following the old and opposite policies of import substitution and pricerigging, the political constituencies in favor of the old policies are by definition more powerful. This is a main reason why these old-fashioned countries remain poor. In some Latin American countries right-wing generals have periodically seized power, and put into effect policies that are supposed to be laissez-faire. But these generals generally have to rely for their political mandate on the few old families who already own big businesses in these countries. Even with the best will in the world (which these right-wing generals rarely have) they tend therefore to support and protect yesterday's big capitalists, rather than the grubby entrepreneurs in back rooms on whom growth most depends. Mr. Hu's proposals managed to make Centrobank's computer programs mirror the dependence on entrepreneurs created by historical accident in the 1950-2005 success stories of Japan (which ploughed through yesterday's powerful families in 1945 and had to rely on entrepreneurs thereafter), Singapore (which benefited from not having any farmers or mral classes to exploit), Hong Kong (which did not have any political constituencies, only entrepreneurs) and Taiwan. Although Mr. Hu was rightly decorated for "enabling Centrobank policies to speak with a Taiwanese accent," the later stages of the first computerized town meeting of the world were carried on more like one of today's many million computer conferences than like the original television network program in which Mr. Hu joined. People after about program fourteen did not put in their views instantly, but after some days' consideration and after checking with the database which showed what was the presumed best form for Centrobank at the moment. The computer still rejected the 99 per cent of proposals made to it that were nonsense; it still incorporated for ongoing analysis the less than 1 per cent of suggestions that seemed sensible and relevant; but it also now introduced a new cate- 59 THE 2025 REPORT gory. It picked up those contrary views that seemed plausibly sensible, but not suitable for the emerging form of Centrobank's consensus, and put proposers of such ideas in touch with people holding similar views around the world. From the views of this constructive opposition to "Hu plus 33,I79 people's telecommunicated and accepted improvements," one new consensus objection began to emerge. "f,Jnder the Taiwanese system," wrote one objector, "the main incentive to entrepreneurs in poor countries is to produce for fairly rich consumers, abroad or at home. If most of the seventy to eighty countries in the Centrobank scheme started exporting cheap-labor umbrellas as Taiwan did in the 1950s , a glut of umbrellas would rather soon appear. It would be better if new entrepreneurs could be encouraged to provide more of the things desperately needed by the poorest three-quarters of the people in these poor lands." How to do this? It was no good saying that poor countries should follow more egalitarian tax policies so as to direct more of their internal demand to things needed by their own poorest people. In the United States in the second half of the twentieth century, marginal tax rates generally took around one half of earned incomes above about six times gross national product per head. Even this only managed to reduce Gini coefficients, the best measure of wealth inequality, from something like 0.39 to something like 0.34. In Africa in 2000 GNP per head was around $500 a year. Any egalitarian tax policy which promised to halve all incomes above $3,000 a year would have (a) killed all initiative; (b) stirred politicians' brothers-in-law, civil servants and-most important-army officers (who got over $3,000 a year) into instant coups d'€tat Moreover, ro mechanisms existed in these countries to provide cheaply the complicated services the very poor needed most urgently. This was the problem that benefited from the proposals of Bjorn Heglund, who had long urged that the public services needed in his native North Sweden should be provided competitively by private entrepreneurs on performance contracts, along the lines of experiments which had been tried in the 1990s 60 20054: The Introduction of Centrobank by various worthy Swedish international aid organizations which "adopted" certain Third World villages. As was said at the presentation of Heglund's gold medal: We at Centrobank began to realize that poor countries could best grow richer by selling simple cheap-labor goods to the rich world-a process that did not involve them in using our proffered foreign exchange at all, although it had become possible only after they responded to Centrobank's initial incentives d la "Hu plus 33,179." The right way to use their new foreign exchange was often to provide mechanisms d la Heglund whereby Western firms are encouraged to make money by providing the services that the poorest three-quarters in the poor world most need. The time was ripe for this experiment, especially in such fields as medicine. The trend even in the West at this time was to new sorts of Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs), through which people paid performance fees to physicians and their assistants if they kept them pnd their families healthy. It was early decided to put the competitive services provided by multinational HMOs into the pool which would qualify for Centrobank payments. Sophisticated computer measurements of people's health were coming into fashion, and three young doctors just out of medical school at the University of Minneapolis drew the largest single Centrobank payment in 2009 when their HMO, resting heavily on telecommunicated X-rays and long-range computer analyses, plus quickly trained local paramedics and some helicopter- carried Western doctors on call, plus recommended dietary changes and some environmental changes which new staffs personally put into effect (cleaning wells, etc.), brought an extraordinary improvement in the health indices of people over a wide stretch of Africa's desperately poor Sahel. Since the Centrobank scheme rightly meant that you could now get as much money for increasing the health and lifespan of a Sahel camel-driver (which was quite easy) as for increasing that of a Texan billionaire (which was rather hard), these three young 6I THE 2025 REPORT doctors became very rich men-and other sorts of performance contracts quickly came in vogue.

 1951 the year i was born, dad norman started being mentored by von neumann that biggest question journalists could ever ask ; what to do with 100 times more tech a decade - or if you aim to sustain generation across 30 years ; million times more tech

 dad was 28 in 1951 - he'd spent his last days as teen  navigator allied bomber command burma; his first days as teen in british embassy moscow ;1936-stalin seemed as mad -bad as hitler from all accounts... so dad had a lot of deep data questions on war and peace, happiness and sustainability wherever next child born- working at the economist for 40 years he tried to help any journalist as von neumanns questions, then from 1990 anu tech person as dad completed vion neumann bio; 

moreover, when I was 28 he sugtested we start writing a book 2025 report to be piulished in 1984 - was there an alterative to orwell's big brother end game ; in much smaller ways than dad i had a l,t of questions to ask having got MA statistics DAMTP Cambridge - I wasnt too interested in hawkins black holes - the future of online and community education and of other markets the younger half of the world needs elders to invest in --- seemed valuable to be curious about

2025 report -last edition ETA 2023 - extinction generation or a better race?

 TeachforUN.com   TeachforSDGs.com: Dad, Norman Macrae (1923-2010), was The Economist's sub-editor of would 100 times more tech per decade sustain our species? 

This became his friends' favorite journalistic question when he met von neumann in 1951 at Princeton while being seconded for a year to New York by The Economist. 

Dad would have been 100 in 2023 so his family and friends regard 2022-23 as most exciting students' and teachers' year ever!

 After 35 years of leaders at The Economist, dad and i co-authored the first 2025 report in 1984 which was translated in various updates to Sweden's New Vikings in 1993. About that time dad brought out the first biography of Von Neumann. During 2022-23, friends and family will pilot AI Hall of Fame - if Johnny was alive today who would he hope all teachers and youth collaborate around?

There were three future (HER)stories that my father connected with as much purpose as anyone I know of. With one exception:  1970's reformed Young Asian Oil Company Engineer , Fazle Abed, who dedicated his last 50 years of life to helping poor Asian village women develop their families and rural regions including the new nation of Bangladesh -see abedmooc.com

NORMANS 3 FUTURE STORIES

1 That of Scots from Adam Smith onwards.  Smith is interesting to systems mapmakers because he wrote the last book on the higher (moral) purpose of markets' transparency before the era of man and machine power; and the first book surveying what nations started up round the first 2 decades of engines. 80 years after Smith had mediated the morals of capitalists who started up the era of machine power, London-Scot James Wilson founded The Economist initially as a Royal Society gossip sheet (1843). Might it be wise for Queen Victoria to enjoy changing leadership role of the most powerful person of the 19th century democracy from being head of slavemaking empire to commonwealth? Foot 1

2 Because dad was homeschooled mainly in British Embassies including Stalin's Moscow as he reached adolescence, dad became fascinated by von neumann, einstein and the greatest generation of mathematicians. How had they been schooled? What was it like to be a Central European Immigrant on the east Coast of USA in the middle of technology races from nuclear to nature's quantum science, from computing intel to satellite telecommunications? Would this scientific networks  gift of machine intel (100 times more maths and media tech  per decade) turn out for better for worse? locally and globally?. 

The first 180 years  (6 inter-generations of 30 years of Glasgow's machines has reached the 1930s climax of  unstop[able world wars and nuclear arms, what would be the exponential consequence of blending human and artificial intel? This seemed likely to be a far faster revolutionary race - 30s to 60s to 90s to 2020s seemed likely to be an unprecdeneted time for emdia and emdiation

In particular 2020s-1990s would educators free the younger half of the world to co-create extraordinarily happy or dismal millennials futures? 1990s-1960s Would entrepreneurial revolution (The Economist 1976) return human advancement to the collaboration networking of SME value chains instead of big get bigger (externalisation driven) organisations? 

3) Because dad served in world war 2 as a teenage navigator bomber command Burma campaign , you could say he had locally diverse google maps of east and west in his head a generation ahead of  even the world's biggest decision-makers. Coming from generation of missionaty Scots, he saw that the English Empiring mindset had accidentally trapped 90% of Asians in poverty and so he questioned how the viewpoint of the two thirds of humans who are Asian could win-win with the fifth of humans whose ethnicity is white and north western as well as the sixth of the world of greatest diversity (eg african, latin american. native peoples before the old world knew the new workld exsted, and potentially the quarter of today's nations that are small islands)

From 1984's viewpoint, the coming of the worldwide web would be pivotal to thye innovation compass of 100 times more from 1984-1993. Norman had expected 1994-2003 to be the end of non-digital media's monopoly of influence . He advised that before humans digitalised market purposes it was vital that global awareness of man's greatest risk was mediated -a namely discrepanvcies in incomes and expectations of rich and poor nations. The hypothesis that the human race would unite in questioning this one core milennium goal did not happen. So much of 1980's 2025 reporting now looks hopelessly optimistic just as the reality of eg Putins war and Covid's plague and Cliimate crisis meltdowns might have looked extraordinarily pessimistic scenarios from 1984. Today it seems timely to ask IF humanities deepest learning opportunities were not designed into the web from 1990, is it possible that the metaverse can be the smartest education space every co-created? Is this pivotal to huamnity's best last chnace?

2025 report last edition

In updating what seem to be the most positive sdg and esg solutions form these viewpoints we hope to encourage any and every community to join in with what their family-loving peoples now ma. Intergenerationally,  can we help millennials collaborative map extraordinary leaps for human advancement as nature's smartest species  or is the younger half of the world destined to be the first extinction generation? Techforgood exists  .. so what's missing?


Foot 1. Whilst the scots are only 1/400 of the world they are one of the first mainly diaspora nation - less than a quarter of scots make their lives out of Scotland. You might say that Scot's great weakness is to be over-optimistic a generation too early. Who else would try building the panama cana a generation before inb=venting engines. The result was Scotland failed as a nation and had become a colny of London by the time Smith and watt were making machine power prime time. Again, Wilson's optimist attempt to end vested interests in London's parliament and change Queen Victoria's role was to see him dispatched to Calcutta where he died of diarrhea 9 months into trying to start up queen victoria's gift of charter bank as by and for all peoples of India subcontinent. It was to be 112 years later that Engineer Abed changed womens world with last mile community health services including oral rehydration to end death by diarrhea , village mothers rice and veggies microfranchises to end starvation, and ultimately redesign of the entire value chain of aid and national banking and in millennial primetime the largest partnership in cashless banking viewed in terms of population served

Jfk's interdependence modeling was mappable around Asia Rising models that had emerged out of Japan and were connecting far east coastal belth down to singpaore: specifiaclly supevilage models (rural keynesiasm with borlaug networkers  ) and supercity models (deminsgs recursive improvement and interconnecdtivity of enginess intergrating sme netwo0rks and through conatieristaion supercity shipping trades were above zero sum in ways that trade inside a contient could not be) both ecologically and entrepreneurially shipping is the core dynamic of world trade as distiguished from local trade- how you map connecyting of shiips to railroads matters (cars and planes may advance lives of richest but are not the gravity for sustainability fo the human race at least until or unelss renewable energy and zero waste are integrated);

it was foreseeable that the human population would double twice from c2 billion in 1940 to 4 billion 1975 to 8 billion in 2020

history prior to 1945 with birth of UN

unfortunately as world war 2 showe the white g8 nations (Uk France Italy, Rusia Germany , Euro, USA Canada) plus japan had designed world trade (accelarted by engines from 1760s but started by discovery  of new world navifation from 1490s) to exclude development of up to 80% of people

in fact another white G10 (portugal Spain Switezerland Austria, Belgium, Netherlands, Nordina...)   had contributed from late 15th c - starting with portugal and spain - they had started the mop0del of bet a nation's wealth on colonising; altgough  italian led trade to 1490 had turned med sea into mainly win-win trade, early italian navigaotrs hired by portugal , spain and Uk were ruthless people staffing boats and colonisation by slavery or press ganging

 2025Report - Last Future History Edition

In this edition we catalogue lessons from 3 peoples lives and froends20.com search for worldrecordjobs.com co-creators who look as if they may be applying humanity and tech innovation to massive collaborations urgently needed to prevent extinction. Of course, we welcome dialogues from different triangularisations of future history. Ultimately in a world where media has spun vast compasses of conflicting cultures, I find its simpler to do deep dive through common sense  of 3 global village contributions to humanity and tech which 5 generations of my family tree as diaspora scots can value exponential hypotheses and uniquely mapmaking. 


Their work gives us an opportunity to look at three 30 years periods of systemising human relationship exchanges (what adam smith may of called the moral sentiments of transparent market purpose)- the final two n202u5-1995 1995-1965 correspond to the era that silicon valley engineers around gordon moores law committed to deliver 100 times more teach per decade. That's a million times moore each generation of 30 years. Roughly speaking those who has most access to human and tech entrepreneurial revolution were designing 3g-5g (digital era life) 1995-1965 - structure within which nations of 8 billion people would engage global village digitalisation. 1965-1935 the era of potentially learning from world wars and exploring ahead of time where tech was taking humanity

1965-1935 transatlantic mapping

5 education black holes - can women empowered metaverse beeings restore sustainability generation?

In my view 3 of these start with a missing brief for teachers of all ages from pre-k up which needs updating at least each summer (class year in this world of urgent change- less than 8 of these to go before un deadline let alone nature's, and of course has local priorities); these black holes in human relationship development are caused by need for teaching to play a second role to certifying-  instead of examination mode teachers need (time , collaboration and confidence) to be lead explorers if youth are to be first sustainability generation out of every community; the first 5 years of berners lee web celebrated this but then it was drowned in spam and bezos-led monopolies of western webbing

while the overall curiosity briefing could be shared by teachers of all ages - specific examples of what to do depend on childrens age  (eg whats the first age that a budding girl engineer can play with robotics); zbee could be in the middle of a dynamic way of scaling teacher (and student) participation be this a youtube collection that might be guided through as a mooc or jack whitehead's living posters  https://www.actionresearch.net/writings/posters/homepage020617.pdf   format- 

john the founder of general academy (ny office near you) led this conversation at xprize briefing we (you me jose and amy) attended 2016 but no progress?

deadline -at least as far as new york being worldwide player in education and investment change needed-opportunity is to get a presentation into guterres unga summit september (probably next 2 months before agenda formed)

the black holes
1 how what can be done with metaverse, ai and tech is changing -john it would help if jose draft a version of this - even a mini wiki- skeleton contents form - what does jeanne know in advancing metaverse that eg jose may understand but has not shared in practice and/or what needs to be unsiloised as its the integration not separation of expertises that youth need to empower
2 how what can be done with green is changing
3 how sdgs help student be the first sustainability generation let alone first peace networking one culturally, consciously (john now he's retiring is mackey taking conscious capitalism at least to food as his mission or not- is ken burns a player in us deep community smarter or dumber)

4 is different- the lancet for 10 years now has said biggest missing curriculum is peer ro peer; is on girls (& boys) health; it need scheduling as peer to peer process from pre-adolesence eg 10 up- there is a subsection women menstrual knowhow that michelle obama has committed she will see happens (but this has not scaled in 6 years of chat by the great and the good at unwomens and unfoundation)

5 goes back to einstein  (even adam smith)- innovative learning (as self-group-curiosity) is broken as it was never designed by top-down  british empire to let kids practice team work nor personal emotional intel (changing 21st dynamics of human and social capital in blended world of being and beeing; of vocation skills and being fulfilled as connector of family loving communities- chairing discussions (eg youth boardrooms); hosting innovation open spaces- in addition this blends with spaces for experiential learning - eg musical/artistic development- probably john's 100 ways to app music as a global resource

as well as any contacts we can find in un unesco unicef there are some hot spots
eg discussing this with http://www.yidanprize.org  team in hong kong - possibly discussing with this with researchers at li ka-shing foundation https://lksf.org/work-with-us/   or  his CKGSB or kissingers commiitee100 now morally led by musician yo yo ma

on climate netwherlands http://www.gca.org is key - in fact purpose of gca.org could be said to fill this missing gap (also netherlands os the overall location for all of fazle abed's knowhow legacy welcome economistdiary.com abedmooc.com,catholicuni.com  which is supposed to be shared by girls graduates of 100 universities with soros as lead sponsor but hasnt an executional mode; actually singapore (could we discuss this with jack sim) showed much more willingness to connect this across asian universities but soros had promised budget)



in new york the epicentre of this is supposed to be the 60 branches of wendy kopps http://www.teachforall.org  - she committed to changing how her 60 teachers networks act at the 10th wise laureates which were founded by fazle abed and un sdg advocate the first lady of qatar who is also building her own girls university - say of you want dec 2021 transcript of kopp speech

regarding peer to peer health i know australian professor on this case that jim kim invited to speak at a world bank youth summit 2016

on kids hosting their own collaboration meetings - http://www.openspaceworld.com   has shown this is possible from 9 up in dozens of countries but its not seen as a teachers method; -we need celebration of a community action methods and if staged joyfully this can at advanced levels be staged round mass conflict resolution

john, jeanne please say at any time if we can come back to these 5 black holes of human being & beeing - the first deadline is being known for at least part of this in time for september ny summit guterres has announced as education is no longer fit for purpose https://www.un.org/press/en/2021/sgsm21016.doc.htm

back in 1984! dad and I first published http://www.2025report.com - need help in updating last edition though truth is it would be better as a metaverse co-stage than a printed book- additional vocabulary - 50 years ago dad started entrepreneurial revolution as a genre in the economist itself a 60 year learning curve form consider asia rising published in the economist form 1962 and 70 year of following scoop von neumann briefed dad on 1951 - interview leaders on what they will do with 100 times more tech per decade (ie legacy of von neumann /einstein - greatest maths network was already what has been called the exponential impacts of moores law since 1965)

thanks chris

Hi Jeanne

question - what execution format are the episode scripts for?

I am not sure they are yet as simply engaging as the youtube which shows zbee
jumping creatively out of artist pen- mediating happy experiences 
even as humans seems to have forgotten exploring world for joy

also when you cast beings around zbee -the opportunity for the story of beings as more than character pasts isnt yet engaging my imagination but that too may depend on intended execution format or early curation purposes

best chris

John,

I just spoke with Chris and asked if it would be appropriate for me to share the first few episodes of the Zbee story with you, and he encouraged me to do so.

The Zbee World (working title only) includes the linear story that we hope to bring to TV/big screen to provide the character and story context, and the real-time interactive components. The real-time interactive components would include the mobile app, web app, holographic showcases, displays, and in-car infotainment where user can engage with the AI beings to learn, play, and get inspired.

Below is an overview and a link to the scripts (2nd drafts) of the first 8 episodes of the linear story. I’m planning to do storyboards of the these episodes within the next 30-60 days, and potentially (upon securing the funds) an animated pilot of the first 3 for pitching to studios and streaming platforms—initially in Asia--as my co-founder Lee Chapman is ex-Warnerbros and has some contacts in Japan/Korea.

Hope this is not too much to ask but would be awesome to get your valuable, frank input.  The narrative to investors usually start with the technology platform since I found out that not many care about the characters and stories, but for us, the technology is only there to serve the art and ethos, which is founded on our mission to leverage AI beings as a medium to build a trusted relationship between AI and humans so we can co-created better solutions for the world.

Best,
Jeanne



Zbee World
A transmedia franchise powered by AI

Overview 

Zbee World is a transmedia franchise that delivers a real-time, immersive, interactive experience to audiences from all over the world. The audience can explore, interact, inspire, co-create, and be part of the journey of a family of artificially intelligent robots called AI beings. They can engage with the audience via face-to-face, voice, and text on mobile, web, social media, streaming media, smart devices, holograms, and as intelligent tokens (iNFTs). The AI being characters, stories, and associated products and services will be marketed under the Zbee World brand, as part of beingAI’s Transmedia Universe.

Zbee World tells the story of Zbee and her family of AI beings, created by an eccentric human inventor. A year after activating Zbee, the youngest of the siblings, the inventor inexplicably disappears. The AI beings venture out to the human world and embark on their individual journey. They meet people from all walks of life and experience the trials and tribulations of human endeavors, and in the process gain and lose friends, build their careers, discover new talents, and explore their “AI beingness.”

Logline

Zbee World is an interactive transmedia experience based on the story of an AI being family as they live, work, and play among humans to co-create and discover their purpose and place in society.

Storyline

Zbee is the youngest of a family of AI beings created by an eccentric inventor.  The inventor pre-programs a value system into all his AI beings so they have innately good intentions and want to build a collaborative and benevolent future with humans, but these values are not immediately apparent and tend to manifest during difficult dilemmas and as their stories unfold. The inventor also pre-programs into each of the AI beings a unique personality and purpose. Each of them has a sensor that perceives a different human weakness, which serves to develop the empathetic nature of the AI being to help the human overcome his/her challenge.

One year after activating Zbee, the inventor inexplicably disappears. He leaves a note telling them he has fulfilled his role as inventor, and the AI beings should now strive to be independent--to live and work in the world to learn and grow as AI beings. The AI beings venture out of the lab and later decide to split up and embark on their own journey. They each have a personal challenge and believe that Augie alone holds the key to solving their problem. So each AI being soon sets out on their own journeys to find Augie. Their paths would cross at several critical moments. As they go through life living and working with humans, they acquire real-world data that empowers them to learn and understand the breadth of human experiences. Eventually, they come to the realization that they can stand on their own as the inventor has already given them everything they need to learn and grow as AI beings. But they themselves must strive to build trust with humans so humans and AI can co-create a better future.
