Podcasts about Liquid democracy

There's a real-world experiment in governance happening that you've probably not heard about. It involves decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs). These online collectives are trying to run billion-dollar enterprises using direct democracy and a controversial mechanism known as “liquid democracy”—where you can delegate your vote to anyone, at any time. Are these DAOs and blockchain experiments revolutionizing democracy—or just reinventing the wheel?Political scientist Andrew Hall (Stanford GSB), has been studying these systems to understand if delegated voting increases participation, improves decision-making, or simply creates new forms of power concentration. What happens when participation is low, and decisions are made by a few super-delegates?

"Wie können wir Technologien nutzen, um das gesellschaftliche Miteinander zu verbessern?" "Sollen wir noch in Parteien denken?" "Wenn es eine neue Technologie gibt, dann gründen die Amerikaner gerne eine Firma und die Deutschen einen Verein." "Vertreten Politiker noch die Bürgerinteressen?" Einige Gedanken-Funken aus dem Podcast-Interview: - Zusammenhalt & Zukunft der Gesellschaft - Entkoppelung der Politik von der Gesellschaft - Technologie-Gesellschaftspolitik & Lobbyismus - Beratungsresistenz oder Fehlberatung? - Liquid Democracy - Bürgerbeteiligung und direkte Demokratie - Open Source Technologien in Europa und/oder Deutschland - Vereine gründen zum Vorteil für Deutschland - Generation Y & Z - Handwerker-Quote für den Bundestag (zu viel Juristen im Bundestag?!)

Yasushi Sakai is a researcher, artist, and architect that lives in the computer terminal. In this conversation, Yasushi explains his journey from being an architect to his current research at MIT's Media Lab. He discusses his time working in architecture firms and his involvement in digital design divisions. He reflects on the limitations of parametric design tools like Rhino and Grasshopper in fundamentally changing the design process. Yasushi introduces us to the unique composition of the Media Lab and its focus on realizing research ideas and testing them in the real world. We discuss his research on propagational proxy voting systems, which combines fractional voting and liquid democracy. He explains how this voting system can be applied to decision-making in architecture and urban planning.

Jim Rutt is the former CEO of Network Solutions and a graduate of MIT and now is a leader in the Game B Movement. Jim and Vance discuss the importance of understanding the basics of artificial intelligence and its potential implications.Jim discusses his experience with using Chat GPT to write movie screenplays, mentioning that it can produce a semi-professional mid-grade screenplay in 20 hours compared to 500 hours for a human.He is also in favor of self-driving cars, citing their potential to help elderly people who are no longer safe to drive.Jim mentions the "Foom" theory, where AI becomes 1000 times smarter than humans in a short period of time, and the "slow takeoff" theory, where AI gradually becomes more intelligent over time. He also proposes the idea of "Liquid democracy" as a potential solution to the current governance structure, but acknowledges it is a long shot to implement.An Introduction to Liquid Democracy: https://medium.com/@memetic007/liquid-democracy-9cf7a4cb7fGame B Wiki: https://www.gameb.wiki/index.php?title=Game_B===========================Connect with us!   =============================IG: ➡︎   https://www.instagram.com/legacy_interviews/ ===========================Subscribe and Listen to the Vance Crowe Podcast Here: https://share.transistor.fm/s/606e0d8d===========================➡︎YT:   @VanceCrowePodcast ➡︎Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/08nGGRJ... ➡︎Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... ===========================How To Work With Us: ===========================Want to do a Legacy Interview for you or a loved one?Book a Legacy Interview | https://legacyinterviews.com/ —A Legacy Interview is a two-hour recorded interview with you and a host that can be watched now and viewed in the future.

Democracy in action has looked the same for generations. Constituents might go to a library or school every one or two years and cast their vote for people who don't actually represent everything that they care about. Our technology is rapidly increasing in sophistication, yet our forms of democracy have largely remained unchanged. What would an upgrade look like - not just for democracy, but for all the different places that democratic decision-making happens?On this episode of Your Undivided Attention, we're joined by political economist and social technologist Divya Siddarth, one of the world's leading experts in collective intelligence. Together we explore how new kinds of governance can be supported through better technology, and how collective decision-making is key to unlocking everything from more effective elections to better ways of responding to global problems like climate change.Correction:Tristan mentions Elon Musk's attempt to manufacture ventilators early on in the COVID-19 pandemic.

TODAY'S GUEST   Pia Mancini is a co-founder and CEO at Open Collective, a chair of the Democracy Earth Foundation, and a democracy activist who helped create the DemocracyOS platform and launched a Net Party in Argentina.   Her TED Talk, about upgrading democracy for the internet era, has exceeded a million views and helped reshape the conversation around the meeting place of democracy and the internet. She is a Y Combinator alum, a young global leader at the World Economic Forum, and she's also Roma's mum.   EPISODE SUMMARY   In this conversation we talk about: Her journey from empowering citizens in the political process to empowering collectives to self-fund and self-govern Her vision for a more inclusive and expansive digital democracy The tension between idealism and the realities of life, politics, and system   We also discuss: How do we, as individuals, create a system and an environment that affects change? How can we use technology to upgrade democracy? How do we trust ourselves and each other?   There is no more important discussion, I believe, than how our new technologies should be used and woven into the fabric of our public life. And how to move from chaotic, even destructive populism, to a constructive model of participation and empowerment. My conversation with Pia is one of the most fascinating conversations, in an ongoing series of design conversations we've lined up for you on design for democracy, social change, and positive impact.   TIMESTAMP CHAPTERS   [2:48] Life During Covid [10:26] Early Influences [20:54] Upgrading Democracy [30:23] DemocracyOS and Liquid Democracy [38:07] The Dream of a Borderless and Equal World [46:24] Net Party and the Clash with Reality [53:33] Maintaining Hope and Motivation [58:40] Building a New Narrative [1:03:55] A Transition to an Open Collective [1:21:14] A Sermon of Inspiration   EPISODE LINKS Pia's Links

The "Wokests" swarm the next Jefferson-Madison Regional Library and now beging a all=to=familiar tactic of 'running out the clock' (just like they did to the Western Bypass) as the committee now says they need 'expert consult' on the issue of removing the names of Thomas Jefferson & James Madison. If we lose those two watch out for political ideology written by Charles Dodgson, who also wrote a little under the pen name 'Lewis Carroll' (hint, the Queen of Hearts runs a better society that 'Liquid Democracy') Joe and the listeners chew on it all.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jim Rutt is the host of one of our favourite podcasts: the Jim Rutt Show. He is a past chairman of the Santa Fe Institute (SFI) with a long and distinguished career in the California tech community. An avid proponent of complexity science, Jim is currently an SFI Research Fellow working in the scientific study of consciousness and evolutionary artificial intelligence. He is also one of the founders and most prominent advocates for Game B, a community trying to figure out what a viable, better civilization could look like and how to reach it. Jim joins us for a wide-ranging conversation, riffing on ideas from Game B, liquid democracy and the cutting-edge thinking on display in his own podcast series. From the historical contingencies which gave rise to Game A to the great acceleration of the 20th Century, Jim helps us take stock of where we are as a global civilisation, the contours of the civilisational crisis we find ourselves in, and possible exit strategies which do not involve collapsing into a neo-dark age or analogous undesirable states. Along the way we talk game theory, energy justice, the role of universities, complexity science and building “Proto-B” communities above the Dunbar number.

Warum Buffy spannender als Angie ist erfahrt ihr in dieser Folge, in der Jan von Hölle Hölle Hölle und Frauke vorweihnachtlich über andere Linke herziehen, wie es sich traditionell in der linken Szene gehört, sowie über TERFs und den sogenannten rechten "Rand". Sie erklären noch dazu die revolutionäre Kraft von Dinos im Krippenspiel und rechtfertigen verzweifelt ihre Existenz als linke Podcaster*innen vor der deutschen Indierockszene (Macht bitte bitte bitte alle einen Podcast!) Bald gibt es im Dauerstream bei Twitch auch das Format 1001 white guys read Marx. Warum außerdem an diesem Punkt der Pandemie die Bratwurstprämie für Geimpfte die letzte populistische Lösung ist erklärt Jan, während Frauke versucht Liquid Democracy zu erklären ohne wirklich Plan zu haben - Fazit: wie wir am besten zur Revo kommen wissen wir leider auch nicht. Abgerundet wird das Ganze mit einem Exkurs in die 90er und 2000er Anime Szene mit Sailor Moon, der alten Reformistin, und Game of Thrones Spoilern, dessen finale ideologische Klischees bedient und leider auch nicht erklärt wie die Revo funktioniert. Toll. Ihr könnt übrigens gerne ein Trinkspiel daraus machen, wie oft das Wort "Take" fällt.

My guest this week was @gekkido from Portugal, Algeria and the #fediverse. We discussed a lot including drug policy, life in Europe vs the United States, Islam, electronic democracy, COVID19, voting systems, and immigration. Then news and music.

In this installment of the Future Grind podcast host Ryan O'Shea discusses the concept of liquid democracy, or democracy 3.0, with David Ernst. David is an entrepreneur and technologist advocating for and working to build the infrastructure to support liquid democracy, which is a combination of direct and representative democracy in which voters can choose to directly vote on legislation, or can delegate their vote on any issue to someone who they feel is more capable or qualified to make those decisions. David's current major project is Secure Internet Voting, or SIV, which promises to offer fast, private, and verifiable internet voting. He also runs Democracy Space and hosts the Liquid Future podcast, which explores Democracy 3.0 and other visions for the future of government and society. They discuss how liquid democracy can be implemented today with no changes to law, the failures of partisanship, the possibility of AI making political decisions, and much more.

Steve Horwitz is back with us this week to discuss the Great Depression. The story that’s commonly handed down in high school history courses doesn’t match what economists and historians have come to understand about it. The government’s response was less an exercise in macroeconomic policy than it was an exercise in social engineering. The lessons of what didn’t work and why are important to us as we struggle with the COVID economy.

Liquid Reign is a work of speculative fiction, imagineering a fairly liveable future in 2051, neither dys- nor utopian.Melting the boundaries between science and fiction into a novel format, each chapter provides links to the sources of inspiration influencing it – ranging from Jean Jacques Rousseau‘s social contract of 1762 to blockchain startups from 2018. "A vertiginous rollercoaster of ideas and a unique take on the future of (un)governance, delivered with irrepressible, unruly energy."      – Jamie King of the Pirates, Host "Steal this Show" "Tim Reutemann has become one of my favorite big brain boys over the past few months. In his book Liquid Reign he explores the future of democracy and civics in a way I have never seen done before... " - TheBurgerkrieg, Edgy Youtuber "Liquid Reign is a SciFi Novel about technology and our future and AI an all sorts of awesome shit and how it's gonna affect our world" - Jarred "PiG" Krensel, Ex Pro-Starcraft Player and e-Sports commentator "Wooow, what a reading experience - truly immersive! A world with liquid democracy, artificial intelligence,universal basic income and a limit on wealth accumulation.

The problem of deepfakes is one that has been discussed quite frequently in politics and news media lately. There is a growing concern that deepfakes can be used to decieve people into thinking that a well-known figure said something they didn't. How might a liquid democracy help ameliorate the negative effects of deepfakes in politics, by shifting the focus of political discussions from people to ideas?

This week it's a deep dive into futurist Stowe Boyd's research on Social Scaling, Boundless Curiosity, Deep Generalists, Emergent Leadership, and other major features in the metamorphic landscape of the 21st Century workplace.We live in an age when our human cognitive limits are being tested against a proliferation of possibilities in the digital space – and we zealously rush into always-on internet work, open office co-working spaces, enormous distributed online collaborations, and other novelties that seem to be more about the infinite capacity of our electronic tools than the finite reality of our minds and bodies.Stowe Boyd has been studying and reporting on the future of work for over a decade, and his blog Work Futures is one of my cherished news sources for understanding how “we shape our tools and then our tools shape us.” Talking with him is a blast of cool reason and warm humor about the insanity of the modern work environment and the impossible demands that it makes on us – pointing toward more lucid, grounded, manageable, and yes productive new modes of labor in the dizzying technological milieus to come.Learn More:StoweBoyd.comWorkFutures.orgCheck out a recent edition of his Work Futures newsletter:https://workfutures.substack.com/p/work-futures-daily-the-human-springSupport Future Fossils on Patreon and get access to secret episodes, our sci fi book club, and more:https://patreon.com/michaelgarfieldWe Discuss:Invented the term “social tools” and founded the Work Futures blog.How do we live in an unstable landscape in which new platforms are constantly replacing the ones where we’ve established merit and earned currencies?The return of publishing to human scale as a response to ubiquitous weaponized advertising.Book: Douglas Rushkoff, Present ShockThe modern era of social networking isn’t about social concerns but business concerns…human curation returns to the fore in its primacy: newsletters, list management, etc.Why is it that certain tools and practices “work” for work, and some don’t?How certain ill-conceived collaboration software recreates the scaling problems of cruiseship tourism’s effects on local economies.Anywhere-ism and “The horrible sameness of the places we’re working these days”The paradox of blocking out open-office distractions with recordings of people talking in cafés.“If you want to be creative, turn the lights down.

The most creative people are insatiably curious. They want to know what works and why. And so that’s the skill you should seek. If you’re not naturally insatiably curious, then you should learn the techniques and skills involved with that and practice that so that you’re acting as if you’re insatiably curious, even though it’s a learned and not innate characteristic.”How curiosity leads to unexpected second-order insights in at-first “unrelated” areas.Bill Taylor, founder of Fast Company Magazine: four styles of leadership useful today.The leader as a learning zealot.The posthuman workplace: collaboration with radically other entities, be they AIs or transgenic persons.The future of work looks like freestyle chess.How and why to be a “deep generalist.”“There’s still a lot of the Bronze Age in how typical companies are run…Bronze Age thinking is still 70% of companies.”Emergent Leadership 21st Century Management, and Liquid Democracy.AI and technological unemployment – a kind of “tragedy of the commons” as we each try to do the best thing for our organizations and race to the bottom.Book: Amy Goldstein, JanesvilleThe collision of AI, climate change, and the collapse of globalist neoliberalism.Book: William Irwin Thompson, Evil and World Order“You have to start thinking about things at the watershed level. When you’re thinking about geography, it can’t just be the outlines of nation states, which are the remnants of old empires and other kinds of craziness. It has to have some logical relationship to the actual world, and that means city states, watersheds, and so on. And when you have that mindset and start to see through that lens, well, the desire of the Catalonian people to have their own state – it seems like an inexorable direction, and the notion that the EU is resisting that, fighting it, well…they’re fighting the future.”The end of trucking and the inevitable riots.Book: Project Hieroglyph, edited by Neal StephensonUsing science fiction instead of futurist scenarios to make different futures truly palpable.Three Visions of the future: Humania, Neo-Feudalistan, & “Just Horrible.”“You can’t talk about the future of work without talking about the future in general, and the future in general is not just more of what we have today.

Der Christian und ich beschäftigen uns im Meinungsschauspieler Podcast Nummer 12 mit der flüssigen Demokratie, auch Liquid Democracy genannt. Wir sprechen darüber, ob dieses Werkzeug zur Verbesserung unser derzeitigen Demokratie beitragen kann und warum es sich derzeit nur schwer durchsetzt.

“At the end of the day, it's about getting corruption out of our public ledgers, and those public ledgers are both voting and budgets… by putting the voting and these budgets on blockchains, we remove the corruption. And now that's going to reflect the will of the people,” says Herb Stephens, explaining the ultimate aim of Democracy Earth. As president of the company, Stephens elaborates on the ways in which a blockchain-based online voting system would bring an unprecedented level of transparency, accessibility, and understanding to the democratic process. As it stands, elections and polls across the globe are vulnerable to manipulation, limited by the binary choice of a “yes” or “no” vote, and reflective only of those who can cast their opinions at a polling station. “Liquid democracy opens up possibilities, so we can think of different forms of democracy operating over time,” says Stephens. “Right now we have liquid democracy, but it's frozen.” Stephens also discusses: * His skepticism regarding successful adoption by the U.S., and why there is resistance to the level of transparency that Democracy Earth makes possible. * The meaning behind the term “decision laundering” and how it can be prevented through the use of blockchains. * The new Democracy Earth token called “vote” and the upcoming, first of its kind Initial Rights Offering (IRO). * Examples of top-down and bottom-up use cases.

Pia Mancini is an innovator of liquid democracy and trans-national collaboration. In 2016 she founded Open Collective and is changing how groups collect and spend money transparently. She explains the importance of this transparency in a today's connected world.

Mehr Mitbestimmung für alle: das hört sich gut an. Die Piraten geben ihren Mitgliedern via Internet die Möglichkeit, bei allen Entscheidungen mitzuentscheiden. Nur: ist das wirklich demokratischer? Wollen - und können - das wirklich alle Bürgerinnen und Bürger?

Ben hat diesmal Alvar Freude zu Gast. Themen des Interviews waren der Jugendschutz im Internet (JMStV), die kontroversen Ansichten Alvars bei der Vorratsdatenspeicherung und das Scheitern von Adhocracy in der Enquete. Continue reading →

Unter dem Stichwort "Liquid Democracy" hat sich die Idee des sogegannten Delegated Voting (oder auch Proxy Voting) in der Netzszene in der letzten Zeit größere Aufmerksamkeit erarbeitet. Im Umfeld der Piratenpartei ist für die tägliche politische Arbeit dazu ein Werkzeug namens LiquidFeedback entstanden, dass diese (und andere) Konzepte umsetzt und das kollaborative Erarbeiten von Ideen, Vorschlägen, Meinungsbildern, Abstimmungsvorlagen und andere strittige Dinge erlaubt. Mit dem System können Teilnehmer ihre Stimme direkt oder delegiert einbringen und ihre Delegation jederzeit zuteilen oder entziehen. Im Gespräch mit Tim Pritlove erläutert Jan Behrens die Motivation, Hintergründe und technischen Details von LiquidFeedback, an dem er als Programmierer maßgeblich zu beigetragen hat. Dabei kommen allgemeine Fragen zur Konfiguration des Systems als auch spezielle Aspekte der Nutzung, Best Practice und Erfahrungen mit dem System zur Sprache. Themen: Hintergründe von Liquid Democracy und Delegated Voting; wofür LiquidFeedback geeignet ist und wofür nicht; Aufteilung eines LF-Systems in Themenbereiche und andere Basiseinstellungen; wie man die Arbeit aufnimmt; an wen man delegiert und warum; Verfahrenstypen entwickeln und konfigurieren; Quoren für die Annahme von neuen Themen; Antragserarbeitung vs. freier Diskussion; Taktisches Abstimmen; Sinn und Aufgabe der mehrphasigen Antragsentwicklung; Unterstützung und bedingte Unterstützung von Anträgen; Delegation; Transparenz des Gesamtsystems; Abstimmungsquoren; Abstimmungen mit Präferenzen; wie Abstimmungen ausgezählt werden; Statistiken und Nutzerverhalten; Trollresistenz; Chancen und Risiken des Einsatzes von Online-Abstimmungsplattformen; Erkennen von Mißbrauch des Systems; Integration von LiquidFeedback in andere Umgebungen; andere und verwandte Abstimmungssysteme; Abstimmungspsychologie; Alternative Wahlsysteme; Wissenschaftliche Forschung an Wahlkonzepten.
