Thanks Ari, capitalism is short term and egocentric. You are proposing long term and humanitycentric. Great to see you trying to change our focus, I agree, it is highly necessary.

this talk sparked something new in me a new idea of sorts about helping people and also how to go about my own goal which also involves helping people, I think that is enough and a good power one ted talk should hold , thanks man ! keep up the work

Hi Ari ! Thanks for your talk. The future is NOW.... Sure I get we as humans like to plan for the future and Professor Drucker said it best..' the best way to predict the the future is to create it' And I add live more in the now .

Excellent

Shortism might be a product of a society evolving faster and faster. The mayas predicted this in their calander and saw that conciousness was accelerating over time. There are so many things happening in this age and it will only keep increasing if it doesn't come to a halt. This creates a lot of uncertainty about jobs, future of the environment and puts us under constant stress and automatically in the state of shortism. We really have to revise to what extent we want to automate everything and still be able to give everybody a job and a feeling of purpose. Solution probably would be communities that focus less on large scale production and automation but are more productive by craftsmanship in any area. What are your thoughts?

The goal is simple. Kardashev 3 (or whatever may lie beyond it) and all that it entails. That said I think on scales of say 10^80 years (1 followed by 80 zeros) When the last black holes are evaporating from hawking radiation. A low power computer running a simulated human mind could use the power of a radiating black hole, But I'm not sure how we can survive any longer under known physics.

Short-termism is all about greed and power. Like the "sandbag" idea, or "putting out fires," the speaker says, short-term strategies can work, but they operate upon a foundation made long ago and is usually crumbling due to age. "Firefighting" is the most inefficient and expensive way to deal with problems, usually costing many times more than a one-time large expenditure to fix something right. But the since the bandaid fix cost is spread out and hidden over many years, quarter to quarter results still look good. Spending the necessary money to fund long-term innovation or do something right the first time will cause revenues to drop and that means the stock price drops because investors start to worry. Same is true for innovation. Only minor innovations can be achieved in three months. And this is why instead of truly new innovations, we instead just get the next generation cell phone and automobile, which are only some new feature built into an old idea.

Ari,you paraphrase a quote that man is the only sapient species is the only one who knows they are gonna die... lol...just like man is the only species who makes and uses tools,or can logically solve problems.......
