Why Can't We All Just Get Along?

How Science Can Enable A More Cooperative Future.

Beschreibung

Why do we have war, poverty, and other ills, when few want them? Competition, and the resulting scarcity and inequality. Surprisingly, AI and 3D printing technologies will actually make it easier for people to cooperate. Why can't we all just get along? We'll tell you. More importantly, 
we'll tell you how, if we play our cards right, we can.

Autor

Fry moved to Boston in 1973 to attend Berklee College of Music (the MIT of Jazz). Realizing his musical skills needed augmentation, he moved across the river to MIT (The Berklee of Computers). He's worked at BBN, IBM, MIT's Experimental Music Studio, Sloan (business) school & Media Lab and a host of start-ups. He's written languages for music composition (Computer Improvisation and Flavors Band), general purpose computing (Macintosh Common Lisp and Water) and decision support via reasoning (Justify). His latest language and development environment is to help makers describe processes for robots to make anything. In 2012, Fry presented his plan for cutting gasoline use and the accident death rate (30K per year in the USA alone) in half (while saving money) to the Massachusetts Department of Transportation, the US House of Representatives, and the United Nations. Their disregard for this plan and the subsequent deaths of 200K+ people in auto accidents in the USA since, exposes these organizations' disregard for your life. This state of affairs provided motivation for this book.
