Awesome term/info, and (completely orthogonal to whether they’ll take err jerbs): I’m really excited about the social/civic picture that might be enabled by a defined and verifiable ontological and taxonomical foundation shared across humanity, particularly coupled with potential ‘legislation as code’ or ‘legal system as code’ solutions.
I’m thinking on a time horizon a bit past my own lifespan, but: even the possibility to objectively map out some specific aspect of a regional approach to social rights in a given time period and consider it with another social framework, alongside automated & verifiable execution of policy, irrespective of the language of origin is incredible.
Instead of hundreds and thousands of incommensurate legislative silos we might create a bazaar of shared improvement and governance efficiency. Turnkey mature governance and anti-corruption measures for newborn nations and countries trying to break out of vicious historical exploitation cycles. Fingers crossed.
Ah, yes, 2001 but on land.
I consider the scene with Dr. Chandra and SAL 9000 to be a fairly realistic predictive description of how experts interact with LLMs. SAL even has a somewhat obsequious personality.
Moldbug called, asked for his mold and bugs back.
