Beautiful direction. I believe an AI for Humanity might best aligned with a positive direction, like ikigai, then a negative like 'eliminate suffering'.
Even in Buddhism, suffering is useful in that it wakes you up. It wakes you up and requires that you address it, making suffering itself a great teacher.
And it's this sort of deeper understanding, a more nuanced morality and ethics that needs to be a core part of any AI Agent that's is designed to help people grow.
I'm currently creating AI Agents that are designed to help the individual in their life and by extension their community.
Are you familiar with Cheat Layer? Or Rohan Arun, its founder? He offers another perspective that I have not heard you talk about. He imagines billions of people, pretty much everyone, using AI to produce some income.
As I understand it, he has put a lot of focus at the bottom of the economic pyramid, even below typical SMBs. His focus is on people, even including the homeless.
It seems he thinks AI can eventually provide individuals everything needed to create and market goods and services. In aggregate, this could represent a large percentage of the global economy, helping AI displaced workers to adjust, and perhaps also affecting the need for a UBI.
In my view, this could foster the emergence of a new, and very large segment of our post AI economy. In fact, it might even flip the economic pyramid entirely. I also gives people hope, and to some extent allays fears surrounding AI, principally economic displacement and the subsequent lack of agency it engenders.
It seems to me that this could be at least one way to create the 100 million "systems thinkers" you are imagining. In fact, you might want to shoot for 1 Billion +, as each person might "employ"dozens of agents.
Rohan has already built a fairly robust platform to help accomplish this. While it can also be regarded as Yet Another Agent Builder, Rohan's perspectives and priorities set it apart in my experience. What if literally anyone/everyone could easily participate in the global market by directly contributing value not as employees, or even as "entrepreneurs", but as simple individuals?
I think you might enjoy talking with him, if you have not already. His perspective offers us all a way to see ourselves being economically secure without relying on getting jobs or on government programs. I think it would be interesting to imagine a world where everyone has sufficient agency to prosper.
As I understand things, Cheat Layer was one of the first companies approved by OpenAI to use their tech in a product. More than a start-up I think, albeit still young.
I'm looking forward to being 1 in 100 million!

I'm very excited about this. Thanks David.
Aloha David!

This looks like just a startup

I don't think you understand what systems thinking is, bro.
