Transdisciplinary sustainability science is increasingly applied to study transformative change. Yet, transdisciplinary research involves diverse actors who hold contrasting and sometimes conflicting perspectives and worldviews. Reflexivity is cited as a crucial capacity for navigating the resulting challenges

we need a new countercultural energy that rejects being quantified as data for Technofeudal lords. That rejection can come in many forms, from data-sovereignty to a push toward Web 3.0.

example - people-centered, interpersonal network - This is the scenario that innovators find themselves in always - you are at the center of multiple networks, each exploring an idea of interest to you - By its very nature, we often form silos in these groups, as they are sometimes mutually exclusive - for instance, our family group does not often overlap with this group - Sometimes we feel there is enough synergy to pursue de-siloing and introduce members of one group to other groups - If we have a people-centered software system that locates ourselves precisely at the center of all our groups, - then at least we have a uniform information system that can allow us to associate ideas across group silos without friction - As Gyuri says: - https://hyp.is/RVVayCOKEe2OJnff8kssaA/iopcommunity.com/what-is-the-internet-of-people-iop/ - - All financially stable organizations begin as an idea between people, with uncertainty of whether it will succeed

Doing that requires new approaches to organizing for transformation where multiple initiatives connect, cohere, and amplify their individual and collective transformative action

Comment - indyweb / Indranet is ideally suited for this - seeing the mention of individual and collective in a sentence surfaced the new Deep Humanity concept of individual collective gestalt that is intrinsic to the epistemological foundation of the Indyweb / Indranet - This is reflected in the words to describe the Indyweb / Indranet as people-centered and interpersonal

comment
I believe we are arriving at multiple simultaneous breaking points. The most obvious is of course the climate crisis, but also consider the mounting levels of inequality, of pollution and of despicable charlatanry exhibited by those in positions of power. These simply cannot go on if we are to survive as a civilization. Since civilization is resilient, the odds are that we develop tools to support a saner society and bring those tools to bear. I’m not prescient enough to enumerate them, but it seems that the single most useful technology would be one that clearly distinguishes verifiable truth from agitprop in an unavoidable and unambiguous way. This is a necessary but not sufficient condition for making progress on any of the key issues we face.
I do expect new social platforms to emerge that focus on privacy and ‘fake-free’ information, or at least they will claim to be so. Proving that to a jaded public will be a challenge. Resisting the temptation to exploit all that data will be extremely hard. And how to pay for it all? If it is subscriber-paid, then only the wealthy will be able to afford it.
instead of worrying that ArtificialIntelligence will soon come to dominate and govern the human world, let us think of how it couldhelp the human being to finally be able to do it.
