Picnic version: The Clothesline Paradox and the Sharing Economy (pdf with notes)Tim O'Reilly
This is my slightly extended version of this talk, given at the Picnic Festival in Amsterdam. I think the arc of the talk is slightly less clear than the OScon version, but there is additional material and better notes.
What does our economy look like in the age of automation? What plans do the world's largest companies have - think Amazon, Alibaba and Alphabet - for our collective future? How will we fit into the world that they're building?
In this webinar we take a close look at Amazon's granted and/or filed patents, and assess what they're building as a leading indicator for what the economy of the future will look like.

HR in the Social Era. The Power of CommunityJim Lefever
By any measure, on a global, regional and local basis, the world of business is in a state of flux. We are rapidly moving away from the Industrial Age with its rigid structures, stable business models, formal processes and functionally siloed organisations into a fluid and flexible environment that fundamentally changes the way value is created, the meaning of work, and the structures for our institutions.
This has huge implications not only for how HR fulfills its purpose but indeed whether HR will survive as a function without undergoing an appropriate transformation to meet these new realities.
This white paper seeks to address these issues by combining the power of community with the changes in the workplace to create a solution that will enable the success of business in the Social Era.

Moving from a Sharing Economy to a Shared EconomyChelsea Rustrum
The sharing economy is great, but how do we integrate sharing into the very fabric of business? How can we build communities that are also companies? How can we distribute value in the form of ownership and governance to users, members, providers, participants, etc.? Using new age finance models, business structures, and current thinking, we can create hybrids that do just that!

Changing the World of Work: Why Social is Broken and How to Fix ItDigital Clarity Group
Presentation deck from May 2014 Get Clarity webinar. In the webinar (available here:http://www.digitalclaritygroup.com/why-social-is-broken-and-how-to-fix-it/#recording) analyst Tim Walter provides an exclusive look at how social interactions are changing the not-so-distant future of work.
Despite great enthusiasm and some positive results, enterprise social tools and practices have failed to make a significant impact in terms of implementations, adoption, regular use, or business results.
In fact, enterprise social will continue to falter as long as the focus is on the tools and practices (i.e. the "build it and they will come" fallacy), or the benefits for the employees (i.e. the "it's all about the people" fallacy).
After watching the webinar video, you'll learn how to course correct for enterprise social that works. Tim explains how and why the social business can flourish when it is used to address a fundamental shift in business conditions -- namely, the empowerment of consumers and the consequent need for all firms to master customer experience management (CEM).

Union of Humans: The Future of the Millennial Generation in the Age of Automa...Ogilvy
It’s not always fun or easy to understand an automating, fissuring, hyper-globalizing economy. It’s not always comfortable to consider that decades-old safe and sage advice (“Go to college!”) might become totally obsolete—if we don’t move quickly to curtail the privatization of our primary schools, and/or colleges fail to modernize their offerings.
However with great crisis comes great opportunity, and Millennials are well-equipped to handle the mammoth issues before them. They are, after all, the most educated, most connected generation in American history.
So why the emphasis on…unions? Well, we really need them, and Millennials happen to love them. But the automation era will require its own union, of sorts—what we’re calling a “union of humans.”

In this paper we explain wat overwork is and the physical and mental health risks associated with it.
We then explore how overwork relates to system stability and inventory.
Finally there is a call to action for Team Leads / Scrum Masters / Managers to measure and monitor excess work for individual teams.
The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

Hey Founders before your grand-kids are born make sure they end up a
super elite. Because it will suck to end up like a farmed sheep belonging
to a few wolf Sheppard.
In the past few years scientist have discovered the gene that is responsible for
skin tone. Which means it wouldn’t be long before people give their kids crayon
colors. The process is called, CRISPAR, which is a genetic engineering or
gene modification process. It simply extracts a gene that is responsible for skin
color and simply replaces it with a modified version into an embryo of any
creature which then turns, for example, a biological-natural Asian baby girl into
a green She-Hulk or any colored baby girl. Making it possible to create a
engineered-modified human or super elite.
In the next half a decade, we’d eventually all be living in an
exponentially-human-diverse-world and likely to face some complex social,
economic and ethical issues. Which will make life very interesting however

Imagine a world where the Hell Boy skin color would be so fucking cool and
happens to be the new trending baby skin color of 2025. Imagine a human
genetically modified herself and gave herself a bull penis. I bet some women

homogeneous. Honestly, I’m not sure if that “skin color changing” option is
in the pipeline now however I do know it is an inevitable future. And what is
also inevitable is for a few organized demographic of the population to
decide the rules for human behavior, biology and technological evolution.
The few super elites who for some fucked-up reason end up shaping the
lives of the many.
IMPORTANT: If you are considered to be in the circle of the social and
economic elite today, I would like for you to hold judgment and step away from
your privileged world. And if you are a regular modestly significant Joe or Jane
then realize this is not an attack on social & economic elites.
[“One of the biggest puzzles confronting political scientists from the time of
Machiavelli are the following: When do those in power abuse their stations for
their own benefit, and when do those in power elect to build systems of
governance that favor society over personal gain?”]
[“Robinson describes how at certain points elites will create institutions that are
particularly suited for a given environment. In some cases, this means that
elites will construct dynastic institutions, whereby their descendants will form
future generations of elites. In other cases, Robinson observes that elites will
design institutions that reproduce and change future elite classes. Therefore, if
one wants to understand institutions and institutional persistence, one must
consider the motives, coherency, and overall dynamics of the elite.”]
[“The powers of ordinary men are circumscribed by the everyday worlds in
which they live, yet even in these rounds of job, family, and neighborhood they
often seem driven by forces they can neither understand nor govern. 'Great
changes' are beyond their control, but affect their conduct and outlook none
the less. The very framework of modern society confines them to projects not
their own, but from every side, such changes now press upon the men and
women of the mass society, who accordingly feel that they are without purpose
in an epoch in which they are without power.”]---Book “The Power Elite”

TODAY'S ELITES . . .
Today, if you just observe your surroundings and your institutions, you will
notice that almost everyone and everything belongs to an hierarchy of power.
What’s common for most is that those on top assert control, influence, rules,
upon lesser powerful people through powerful tools such as money, food,
water, weapons, security, laws, sex, etc.. However to magnify the
effectiveness of their power they must go through an institution which
imposes rules and information on subjects.
Add to that,…the strong possibility the fate of many men, women, and children
is in some way shaped by their genes and their environment lives. The
neighborhoods, schools, occupations, lifestyle,place of worship, books, charity,
life events, thoughts, philosophies, family members, role models, etc... either
are guiding you towards a life of misery or life of prosperity.
Elite Politics around the world have grown ever more toxic. It’s more and more
centralization of power that seems to be stiffing human liberties, human joy
and human fairness, abusing technology.
The military departments in some establish civilization are growing into a
bureaucratic and self serving non-sense with growing desire to create enemies
so they can assert their personal policies or agenda.
FYI: [“Not all power, it is true, is anchored in and exercised by means of such
institutions, but only within and through them can power be more or less
continuous and important.”]
The rich, famous, intellectual, moral leaders are not immune to the flaws and
temptation of everything today. However they will do everything in their power
to avoid being vulnerable to biological, technological and economic volatility.

WHO TRANSITIONS TO A SUPER ELITE?…..
Before Tony Stark became Iron Man he was a mere mortal with resources
and connections. When he created the Iron Man suit and kept reiterating
it he became a God. A God able to use technological advances to match
the God of thunder, Thor.
That might be fictional today but the future of a world filled with Super
Elites is not far away. The question we all should be asking is who gets
to transition to a super elite and who doesn’t? Who gets the upgrades
and who gets left behind to wither?
[“Digitization has advanced in a series of accelerating waves that touch more
and more participants. As each one builds on and amplifies what has come
before, the waves are hitting in faster succession and with greater impact.
Today the focus is on connectivity, platforms, data, and software. These
spread faster than classic computing hardware due to their network effects and
the marginal cost economics associated with products and services in digital
rather than physical form. Together these technologies have set off a virtuous
cycle of innovation as they are combined and recombined in the form of new
products. As consumers see the benefits and are quicker to adopt, businesses
can take advantage of a built-in audience for yet more innovation.”] - McKinsey

tasks performed by the workforce today can be automated by currently existing

technologies. It further suggests that at least 30 percent of the tasks performed
by roughly 60 percent of today’s occupations could be automated, which will
cause a large-scale redefinition of job roles and business processes.”]
Founders and to anyone reading this, the evolution change is coming.
For example being able to hack any human biology is bound to change
humanity. Having artificial intelligent systems and algorithm systems
guide our daily lives and in worst cases guide some of us to dead ends,
should be a concern for non-elites.
Having automation will make some people’s lives easier and make others
more complicated . Living with the fact that the wealthy, powerful or privileged
would be able extend their lives for hundreds of years is bound to create hell
on earth. Imagine if guys like Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, or a terrifying tyrant
were around a hundred plus more years. ..
THE GAMES THAT HELP MAKE YOU BECOME SUPER ELITE. . .
If there were never the elites among the rest of us then we’d truly never know
what the human race could achieve. And if weren’t for a culture of achieving
the best and pushing the limits we’d never had billionaires, Michael Jordan,
Jack Ma, Drake, Jeff Bezos, etc. Our daily need to survive and thrive is what
makes some of us rise to the top.
Almost every species has this motive. However with time in this world you
realize that those at the top of the hill will do anything to deter threats to their
power, position, entitlements, and their survival.

I took a look at Enron, the former darling of American Wall Street. You
quickly realize that businesses built by elite assholes will do everything
to manipulate, abuse their leverage for selfish motives. Now imagine
when a super elite goes around selling a “trust me stories” however
behind every transaction are the few circle of people making a shit load
of money at the expense of the rest of the population.
Makes you wonder whether people enjoy being exploited? Life is so
interesting because in some shape or form each individual must choose or be
lowered into becoming in some shape a king or slave to others. Beneficial for
some population to stay weak? I’m reminded of how weed dealers would
sell to people even when they clearly know the user had permanently
neglected their self-hygiene or how casinos would welcome a addicted
gambler when they know they should intervene. Or when a financial adviser
tells you to buy stocks which may or may not make money so they can get
their commission. By will of force become elite or die trying? [“What really
binds the power elite to one another are their mutual interests, social networks,
and the adoption of elite ideology and values. The importance of social
networks cannot be overstated for it is in these powerful, yet informal,
networks that bonds are formed, elite values learned and heritage share. ”]
[“Members of the power elite attend the same private schools and universities,
join the same clubs and fraternities, belong to the same churches and charities,
and live in the same neighborhoods. They work and play together, and they
employ one another. (blanked) elites enjoy broad-based, informal social
networks that provide access to information and referrals that result in
preferential employment opportunities.” ]
Systematically excludes others? Excluding others. The game of
involuntarily or voluntarily segregating others helps to concentrate like us from
not like us. Which ends up creating one-dimensional-thinking, complacent,
arrogant, ignorance, indifference, misdirection, distraction, power
concentration in modern society, [This phenomenon, known as “homosocial
reproduction,” refers to the tendency of a homogenaic organization to
reproduce itself by continuously promoting the same types of individuals.]
Quick Definition Of Elite Class & Super Elite Class
[Social statuses:
•Within each social identity category, some people have greater access to
social power and privilege based on membership in their social group. •Often,
this group is called the advantaged group. •We call group who access to social
power is limited or denied, the targeted group. •When you hear students or
colleagues use the following terms in official paperwork or even in community
conversation: •Advantaged: agent, dominant, oppressor, privileged •Targeted:
target, subordinate, oppressed, disadvantaged ]

policies, laws, rules, norms, and customs enacted by organizations and social
institutions that disadvantage some social groups and advantage other social

HOW THEY MAINTAIN SUPER ELITES and ELITE STATUS?
There’s nothing more terrifying to an elite class then to lose his / her status or
prestigious social and economic advantages. That’s why some can result to
unethical behavior because of that fear. Such as bribery, manipulation, lieying,
violence, cheating, intimidation,. For your information, power is usually
concentrated in this three primary insitituation. The global businesses,
governments, and military. What I call the money,home, stick. The seconday
power are the schools, churches, trade unions, associations, or other
organized instituations.
The past social elite were conceentrated in regions of the world. Today’s elite,
due to globalization, are transnational who with time grow distant from national
affection. They think global so their thoughts and actions are globally strategic.

Their peers are also global elites from diverse backgrounds and with diverse
agendas which help form their views of oppotunities and threats. Their informal
networks such as neighbourhoods, hotels, restaurants, sports events, arts,
charity, resorts, etc help to solidify the super elite circles.
Using gene editing to become a super elite?
There will come a moment when a tiny population have manage to edit their
genes or their babies genes to the point of escaping the call of death.
[“In conference halls around the world, geneticists and developmental
biologists have been gathering to discuss what once was
unthinkable-genetically engineering human embryos so that they, and their
children, and their children's children, are irrevocably changed. These experts
are talking with remarkable candour about using germ-line engineering to cure
fatal diseases or even to create designer babies that will be stronger, smarter,
or more resistant to infections.”]
Gene editing is the process by which genetic material can be added, removed
or altered anywhere in the code.
[“Most countries have not yet legislated on genetic modification in human
reproduction, but of those that have, all have banned it. The idea of using
Crispr-Cas9 for human reproduction is largely rejected in principle by the
medical research community. A team of scientists warned in Nature less than
two years ago that genetic manipulation of the germ line (sperm and egg cells)
by methods like Crispr-Cas9, even if focused initially on improving health,
“could start us down a path towards non-therapeutic genetic enhancement”.]
Media & Society Inpact of Super Elite?
The realities of every media network or enterprise is the fact there’s a person
or individuals who helped shaped the values and personality of media outlet.
Let’s use Fox News of News Corp for example. The key persona behind the
Fox media is a media mogul, named Rupert, who is not afraid to challege the
statusquoe.
So what elite media organizations end up doing is simply legitimise and
support the establish beliefs that reins. They fortunately and unfortunately
wash eachothers hands.
Belonging?
Your circle of friends and associates does shape your evolution into super elite
status. The reality is that any human who find it ever more competive to
distinguish their ability will likely result to legitimate and non-legitimate tools for
the boost.

In an accelerating, increasingly complex information age, frictionless access to
both offline and online information is an advantage worth having. It’s the
quality, rarear the information super elites desire
Having formal & informail intelligence.
Which means simply having a great processing brain power will not be
adecute. It’s having the brain ability in seeing value in chaos to grasp bizzar
idealogies or subjects.
Having good attention and focus?
From your experience you’ve seen how hard it is drive and text at the same
time. HUmanity is either going to keep having short and shorter attention span
or better.
Your mediated information is ready?
The key to surviving and thriving in this game of life is not getting your
resources second hand.
Social media leverage game plan?
The world is filled with billions of people yet not many want to have a personal
brand and be a online social genious. Social
Avoiding suffering?
There’s an endless supply of human suffering. Imagine a world where we’ve
eradicate most forms of human discomfort. Having the knowledge and
resources to escape most human suffering.

THE THREATS & OPPORTUNITIES TO ELITISM LIFE?
Nothing frightens a super elite than a threat to his or her ability to
maintain stability. Even though super elites might become the next
generation of the human race they are still threatened by the
uncontrollable.

1. Artificial intelligence [Why it’s bad: Machines with an extreme amount of
technology could be difficult to control. They may hoard resources to boost
their own intelligence, leaving little or nothing for humankind. That would be
very bad for us.]
2. Unknown consequences [What to be afraid of: That’s unclear. Lots of things
could go wrong that we aren’t even considering. Remember the Fermi paradox
— alien life likely exists but we’ve had no known contact. Perhaps intelligent
life always destroys itself — or something else does — before it can explore
the galaxy. This leaves us to guess at the causes that may have destroyed any
other intelligent life.]
3. Synthetic biology [The issue: A pathogen could be engineered to target
humans or a critical part of the ecosystem. If synthetic biology products
became a part of our economy, that adds a vulnerability, as they could become
an entry point for biowarfare or bioterrorism. ] In addition, imagine a person or
group has engineered a food product or bacterial to hurt certain people with a
certain genetic code.
4. Extreme climate change [Nightmare scenario: Famines, mass deaths,
social collapse and mass migration ignite global conflict. Civilization crumbles.]
5. Nanotechnology [How this goes badly: Self-replicating nanomachines could
be engineered to consume our environment, destroying humanity. Another
concern is whether nanotechnology can be used to build nuclear bombs.]
7. Major asteroid impact [Uh-oh: A large asteroid collision — something about
3 miles in size — would destroy an area the size of Holland. The impact would
trigger massive dust clouds, which would affect the climate and our food
supply, causing political instability. The good news is an asteroid this size hits
about once every 20 million years.]
8. Global pandemic [The concern: Infectious diseases can spread easily given
our advanced global transportation systems and the dense nature of human
populations. A new pandemic combining the incurability of Ebola, the
infectious nature of the common cold and the long incubation period of HIV
would have an extreme death toll.]

shot into the upper atmosphere, cooling global temperatures. The effects
would be similar to a nuclear winter.]
10. Ecological collapse [The bad news: Species are going extinct at a faster
than historic rate. If the ecosystem collapses some human lifestyles may be
impossible.]
11. Global system collapse [The concern: The world’s economic and political
systems face systematic risks because of their intricate and interconnected
natures. The researchers say more work needs done to clarify what parts of
the system could collapse and destroy civilization. But they felt enough
research is out there to include it on the list.]
12. Bad global governance [The concern: Leaders don’t eliminate poverty, or
they build a totalitarian state. Current technology can make it easier to create a
totalitarian state.]
[A recent poll of Americans out today by the Pew Research Center shows that
in light of these new tools, Americans as a whole are still fairly concerned and
wary about the idea of permanently altering our genomes to enhance our
capabilities. The poll, which surveyed 4,700 Americans, narrowed in on three
specific advancements that are looming in our future: Gene-editing to alter our
genomes, brain chip implants, and the use of synthetic blood transfusions.]

FINALWORDSABOUTAWORLDOFPOSSIBLESUPERELITES?
It is inevitable that we are likely to have humans adopting biological and
technological enhancement. So to the founders with the money,
resources, etc., do we try to intervene to make sure we have a fair and
just future or do we wait and see?
For example, imagine if your co-workers had implemented a device into their
brain that enables them to process information ten times faster than you,
wouldn’t you want the same advantages. The game of life is a game with
yourself. It’s a game that ask do you have what it takes to survive, thrive, and
reproduce?
There’s just so much advancement and change in technology and our social &
economic structures that’s eagerly disrupting modern civilization. The final
question is what has the industrial age, digital age taught us about change?
Because if we don’t learn from them the SE(Self-Enhacement) age could
create bigger have and have not gaps. Creating a world of Super Elites.
[For most of us, I suspect, the answer is no. Even if every kind of work is
abolished by automation, with robots raising our children, growing our
crops, and cleaning our teeth, there will be political decisions to be made
about what kind of society we want. In the world imagined by the UBI
tech elite, those decisions would inevitably be made by the people who
own the robots – in other words, them. At best, this might resemble a
benevolent dictatorship, where a small class of “wealth creators”
manufactures and maintains the machines that make it possible for
everybody else to lead workless lives. They’d give us an allowance to
live on, and keep the rest for themselves. ]
