Thanks for joining the premiere Win-winners! Huge apologies but I can’t join the livestream chat with you this week as I’m at an offline event today but I will be live with you in two weeks for the next one. That said, Samo is amazing & I loved picking his brains so I hope you find it insightful.
We need more surveillance, A.I, and data bases to control the thoughts of people. This is the only way to compete with China during US decline, you have to control the hidden variables, and instantiate a permanent market around that factor to perpetuate it indefinitely.
That doesn't work for multiple reasons
1. Humans fundamentally need freedom and privacy or we develop pathologies, get sick and don't reproduce like animals at the zoo
2. Whoever has that poeer to surveil will become corrupt and no longer serve humanity
3. Whoever has the power to surveil cannot have the intelligence and flexibility to take the right decisions for every situation that will come. We need decentralized and divers intelligence of billions people taking their own decisions@@NicholasWilliams-uk9xu
Missed you! Hope your event was grand, whatever it was
@@DaveShap Thanks! It really really was, will tell you about it offline
@@NicholasWilliams-uk9xuthat will not work for multiple reasons
1. Humans fundamentally need freedom and privacy or we develop pathologies
2. The people with the surveillance power will become corrupt and no longer align with the rest of humanity
3. The people with the power of surveillance will never have enough intelligence or flexibility to take appropriate decisions. Humanity needs the decentralized intelligence of 8 billion people.
It seems like you didn't listen to the show till the end
Most interesting online conversation I've heard in months. Better than most Lex Fridman podcasts. Deserves 20 times more views!
One of the greatest conversations I've heard in a long long time. The amount of integrated wisdom from all parts of human inquiry is astounding.
An excellent fireside chat with Samo Burja. One of the few content full and thought provoking video on youtube!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Here are the key insights from the conversation with Sam Buer:
1. Civilizational collapses often occur due to the loss of tacit knowledge and the inability to pass down specialized expertise from one generation to the next.
2. Institutions and social technologies like legal systems, religions, and economic models are typically founded by individuals or small groups, and their impact can last thousands of years.
3. Signs of institutional rot in modern Western societies include the breakdown of collaborative sense-making, the decline of meritocratic bodies that can change people's minds, and the ossification of zombie institutions that persist without purpose.
4. "Great Founders" who can revitalize societies tend to have traits like the ability to productively disagree, high stress tolerance, and the capacity to maintain long-term alliances.
5. Creating new cities or industries separate from decaying institutions may be necessary to reset incentives and foster positive-sum games again.
6. There is a lack of intellectual risk tolerance in modern societies, with people discouraged from challenging orthodoxies or developing radically new ideas.
7. The democratization of power through technology has been overstated, as individuals are increasingly transparent to bureaucracies while bureaucracies remain opaque.
8. Promoting new "stem cells" of society - agentic individuals pursuing reform - may be vital to societal renewal, perhaps by assisting potential Great Founders.
9. Many jobs today are essentially performative make-work to maintain the appearance of productivity, suggesting our political need for jobs exceeds the economic need.
10. Disruptive technologies that lift the veil on credentialism and accurately account for real economic value could be revolutionary acts.
Wow ! You took a lot of words, and squeezed its essence, without this skill we
will get nowhere in this age of information overload. I have watched at least
a hundred hours of Daniel Schmachtenberger and you could turn it all into a
short and very actionable manifesto on how to define and solve the metacrisis!
Otherwise all I get from watching Daniel, is the head spins!!
Sami is a genuinely interesting analyst- thought provoking issues that our governments aren’t grappling with
Samo is always interesting, whether you agree with him or not. Thanks for this interview
This is well deserving of a good review for anyone with more than a passing interest in geopolitics.
I’m going to have to rewatch this one a few times. What profound and novel solutions he is proposing. Samo is moloch’s worst nightmare.
Absolute banger of an interview. Intellectually chewy.
I see Samo and I auto-like. Every time, I learn something interesting.
Every other minute, Burja said something that made me hit the pause button...to think.
Wow, a pleasure of listening to smart people having a healthy discussion.
~~~ Wow. 2 hours flew by. Well done Liv. Please keep bringing these BIG PICTURE thinkers on. CHEERS !!! )))))))))))))))))
More to come!
It is so refreshing to see and hear people who know what they are talking about!😉
She has a beautifully designed set. I love the colors! 👌
Thank you 🤗
Just watched the whole thing obsessively, absolutely loved it. Pure gold. Thank you so much for your networking and sensemaking and providing us with content of such high nutritional value.
This was one of the most interesting conversations I've listened to all week
Best interview I've watched all year. Not just from you, all of UA-cam.
Thank you!!!
Fascinating! Well done!
Love the Gwern shoutout. Cheers to the deep internet OGs!
Wow, that was an amazing interview. Keep it up!
Very interesting, thank you both.
samo is my hero
What a remarkable guest. I want to hear more from him.
I'm going to use the 'social resilient' concept next time someone finds me too much of a contrarian. Thanks Samo!❤
Loved this conversation, thank you
Samo is such a gifted speaker. His point at 1:38:53 is amazingly put.
Brilliant
Great interview! 👍
Loved his hot take of us already living in a pseudo UBI system! Had me picturing hamster wheels as far as the eye could see :)
Very interesting interview. I'm always listen with great interest to Samo's perspectives which are always so well grounded in his deep and broad grasp of history and the implications. He'd make a great guest for Lex. Cheers.
aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh omg you did it!!!!! so freaking excited for this. immense love and respect for you both
Wow!
Great Great interview with my fav thinker Samo
Thanks for asking an being interested in the ancient wisdom of tribes and cultures in latam. I wish we knew more about them. I hope we can use AI to analize their languages and try to articulate the way the saw the world through their lens
OMG I love the intro/outro vibe/music! Also Samo is so inspiring!
Thanks for a very thought provoking interview. Samo has a good overview of how society functions. As far as the 'great founder ' concept goes, there is some truth there, unfortunately in these times our choices in great leaders has been dismal! Maybe we will have a miracle and RFK Jr. will pull off a presidential win!
Good questions, really. And very interesting guest! Thank you both.
Great founders or great villains!!!
This is so good
Congrats on 100k subs! Another great Win-Win episode!
This was a great episode, Liv!!! very insightful!! Thanks so much to both of you for all that you do!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome podcast. Thank you both 🙏🙏
Your intro attracted me.
《 Arrays of nanodiodes promise full conservation of energy》
A simple rectifier crystal can, iust short of a replicatable long term demonstration of a powerful prototype, almost certainly filter the random thermal motion of electrons or discrete positiive charged voids called holes so the electric current flowing in one direction predominates. At low system voltage a filtrate of one polarity predominates only a little but there is always usable electrical power derived from the source Johnson Nyquest thermal electrical noise. This net electrical filtrate can be aggregated in a group of separate diodes in consistent alignment parallel creating widely scalable electrical power. As the polarity filtered electrical energy is exported, the amount of thermal energy in the group of diodes decreases. This group cooling will draw heat in from the surrounding ambient heat at a rate depending on the filtering rate and thermal resistance between the group and ambient gas liquid or solid warmer than absolute zero. There is a lot of ambient heat on our planet, more in equatorial dry desert summer days and less in polar desert winter nights.
Refrigeration by the principle that energy is conserved should produce electricity instead of consuming it.
Focusing on explaining the electronic behavior of one composition of simple diode, a near flawless crystal of silicon is modified by implanting a small amount of phosphorus on one side from a ohmic contact end to a junction where the additive is suddenly and completely changed to boron with minimal disturbance of the crystal pattern. The crystal then continues to another ohmic contact.
A region of high electrical resistance forms at the junction in this type of diode when the phosphorous near the ĵunction donates electrons that are free to move elsewhere while leaving phosphorus ions held in the crystal while the boron donates a hole which is similalarly free to move. The two types of mobile charges mutually clear each other away near the junction leaving little electrical conductivity. An equlibrium width of this region is settled between the phosphorus, boron, electrons, and holes. Thermal noise is beyond steady state equlibrium. Thermal transients where mobbile electrons move from the phosphorus added side to the boron added side ride transient extra conductivity so they are filtered into the external circuit. Electrons are units of electric current. They lose their thermal energy of motion and gain electromotive force, another name for voltage, as they transition between the junction and the array electrical tap.

Amazing interview! Thanks :)
Liv, you are simply amazing!
thank you!
Excellent presentation.
This was very interesting interview. Lot of ideas to think about.
I'm nine minutes in. About an hour, I read an article on two recent incidents of major turbulence on Boeing airliners that made climate change the culprit without ever mentioning the deteriorating safety and quality standards following its merger with a weapons manufacturer. I bet we'll be hearing a lot more of this in the near future and may see this world without (commercial) air travel before very long.
YES You made a podcast!!!!!
enjoyed it, thank you both!
great content in essence, I must say I dislike whatever efficiency algorithm is being run to skip through the space though... big fan of natural spacing...
I love samo, great episode 🎉
Back in my university days, a biochemical engineer invited programmers to help him write software for his PhD. He was focused on improving the small details of an anesthetic drug. The impact of his research was so minimal that it was clear he was just trying to publish papers and climb the academic ladder. Our institutions have become absurd.
Definitely seen the part of writing papers in quantity being the objective rather than advancing the science, including people scheming how many separate papers they could squeeze out of one topic rather than writing one concise report of all its aspects.
Good stuff, thanks.
My criticism is coming first, don’t let it discourage… Reciprocity is an excuse children make before they understand how weak and feeble it is. Its reflexive use, to defend yet another argument for authoritarian censorship, is embarrassing and doesn’t stand up to all but the most shallow consideration. We seem to be embracing the hypocrisy and egotistical behavior previously left to the shadows of Western foreign policy. I suppose it’s rather on point for this interview, highlighting the degradation of reason but also the kind of Moloch mentality Liv often exposes.
That out of the way, great guest, I appreciate his ability to cut through all the power center narratives to construct a more meaningful understanding of the past and present.
Based Samo!
Wonderful
This was great :) Could you interview someone who is doing something really interesting in the field of collaborative sensemaking and collective intelligence?
For example genAI systems in creative dialogue, with many human curators in the loop, to gradually build new ideas, concepts and insights as an open source research project? Surely someone must be working on something like that, since this would seem like the most realistic path towards keeping alive at least some cultural intelligence and creativity within the commons. If a technology like LLMs, so clearly a child of the intellectual commons, where not also used creatively by the commons, this would seem like an unbelievable tragedy.
I am sure someone is working on this, and if you know anyone, please help bring some more attention to it!
Yes I have the meaning alignment folks in mind!
That was really good

Epic.
we live in a very large planet. it was built to that size just to ensure we special animals cannot do any real harm to it, no matter how much we like to think we can. like the belief that humans can fix climate and even traverse the galaxies.
Could have been twice the length. Maybe it was? Good talk.
Thanx Liv, this guy is pretty smart, he's like a Daniel Schmactenberg minus the ADHD !!
going to check him out, he's got some interesting papers on his personal website.
++Good ! 👍
Who is this guy ? Why hadnt i heard of him ?
Just a few minutes in and already intend to "Follow" etc
To me, at moment, seems preferable alternative / antidote to Hariri 👍👍
Edit - too faint praise ...
Let me better compare him to a modern Ibn Khaldun
IE ++Good 😁
you cant stop it once it started
and it's stated
you can only prevent it
for instance printing money is never a sollution and will allways be bad in the long run
once you do something like that it will have a negative outcome
things like that will keep on stacking
the rich will get richer
the rest will get poor
recovery can only happen after the crash
Its called "interconnected cascading systems failure" when you try to mend one thing that breaks another thing and on and on and on.
Its what causes the end of every civilisation - they get there in different ways, but once you have passed the "collapse event horizon" it is, as you say, unstoppable
It also helps to resist empowering clever people and clever ideologies that believe civilization needs to be demolished in order to start over and have a more promising future - with them in charge, of course.
@@richard520 Ive not watched this yet - but its on my list 😀
I'm not sure is true that if you just fire 50% of any team it would keep functioning correctly... perhaps this is different in some companies.... but I've never met a team of engineers that were not asked to do more than they actual can... perhaps this is not a problem of the engineering per se but a mistake on the business expectations of their teams and of their product. I think the Twitter example might be very particular ... like many tech companies and start ups.... most of them don't work to make profits... they work to get access to greater investments based on some future promise that may never come
Flexibility.. sounds great when ur the boss.
found it super interesting how he descibred our elites as senescent, parasitical, and non agentive. this is very similar how henry george describes late empires when the lower class are unambitious, because they do not have fair access to land and the upper class is only concerned with maintaining their land monopoly and not actually producing.
Interesting to hear what things he is spot-on and what others he is almost demonstrably wrong.
Got any links to Samo's books?
Can't we innovate new social technologies? 4:30
Does anyone know what are Burja's credentials? He's obviously smart, but I can't find anything about his education
Technology may have advanced enough to release civilization from the confines of the second law of thermodynamics.
These confines were imposed during Victorian England's scientific and religious cultural fascination with steam engines.
The second law is behind modern refgeration needing electrical energy to compress the refrigerent to force it to release as waste the heat that it has removed from the refrigerator's service interior in the cooling part of the refrigerent's circulation. There is also discarded heat from mechanical friction and electrical resistance.
Refrigeration by the principle that energy is conserved should produce electricity instead of consuming it.
It makes more sense that refrigerators should yield electricity because energy is widely known to change form with no ultimate path of energy gain or loss being found. Therefore any form of fully recyclable energy can be cycled endlessly in any quantity.
In an extreme case senario, full heat recycling, all electric, very isolated underground, undersea, or space communities would be highly survivable with self sufficient EMP resistant LED light banks, automated vertical farms, thaw resistant frozen food storehouses, factories, dwellings, and self contained elevators and horizontal transports.
In a flourishing civillization senario, small self sufficient electric or cooling devices of many kinds and styles like lamps, smartphones, hotplates, water heaters, cooler chests, fans, radios, TVs, cameras, security devices, scales, transaction terminals, wall clocks, open or ciosed for business luminus signs, power hand tools, pumps, and personal transports, would be available for immediate use incrementally anywhere as people see fit.
Equipment groups involving moderate power would be on local networks.
If a high majority thinks our civilization should geoengineer gigatons or
teratons of carbon dioxide out of our environment, instalations using devices that convert ambient heat into electricity can hypothetically be scaled up do it with a choice of comsequences including many beneficial ones.
Energy sensible refrigerators that absorb heat and yield electricity would complement computers as computing consumes electricity and yields heat. Computing would be free. Chips could have energy recycling built in.
A simple rectifier crystal can, iust short of a replicatable long term demonstration of a powerful prototype, almost certainly filter the random thermal motioren of electrons or discrete positiive charged voids called holes so the electric current flowing in one direction predominates. At low system voltage a filtrate of one polarity predominates only a little but there is always usable electrical power derived from the source, which is Johnson Nyquest thermal electrical noise. This net electrical filtrate can be aggregated in a group of separate diodes in consistent alignment parallel creating widely scalable electrical power. The maximum energy is converted from ambient heat to productive electricity when the electrical load is matched to the array impeadence.
Matched impeadence output (watts) is k, one point three eight x 10^ minus 23, Boltzman's constant, times T (temperature Kelvin) times bandwidth (0 Hz to a natural limit ~2 THz @ 290 K) times rectification halving and nanowatt power level rectification efficiency times the number of diodes in the array.
For reference, there are a billion cells of 1000 square nanometer area each per square millimeter, 100 billion per square centimeter.
Order is imposed on the random thermal motion of electrons by the structual orderlyness of a diode array made of diodes made within a slab:
______________________ - Out
🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻
______________________ + Out
All the P type semiconductor anodes abut a metal conductive plane deposited on the top face of the slab with nonrectifying joins; all the N type semiconductor cathodes abut the bottom face. As the polarity filtered electrical energy is exported, the amount of thermal energy in the group of diodes decreases. This group cooling will draw heat in from the surrounding ambient heat at a rate depending on the filtering rate and thermal resistance between the group and ambient gas, liquid, or solid warmer than absolute zero. There is a lot of ambient heat on our planet, more in equatorial dry desert summer days and less in polar desert winter nights.

Mobile electrons are units of electric current. They lose their thermal energy of motion and gain electromotive force, another name for voltage, as they transition between the junction and the array electrical tap. Inside the diode, heat is absorbed: outside the diode, an attached electrical circuit is energized.
Understanding diodes is one way to become convinced that Johnson Nyquest thermal electrical noise can be rectified and aggregated. Self assembling development teams may find many ways to accomplish this wide mission. Taxonomically there should be many ways ways to convert heat directly into electricity.
A practical device may use an array of Au needles in a SiO2 matrix abutting N type GaAs. These were made in the 1970s when registration technology was poor so it was easier to fabricate arrays and select one diode than just make one diode.
There are other plausible breeches of the second law of thermodynamics. Hopefully a lot of people will join in expanding the breech. Please share the successes or setbacks of your efforts.
These devices would probably become segmented commodities sold with minimal margin over supply cost. They would be manufactured by advanced automation that does not need financial incentive. Applicable best practices would be adopted. Business details would be open public knowledge. Associated people should move as negotiated and freely and honestly talk. Commerce would be a planetary scale unified conglomerate of diverse local cooperatives. There is no need of wealth extracting top commanders. We do not need often token philanthropy from the top if the wide majority of people can afford to be generous.

Albino Spock. A rational Peter Zeihan. I 👍
The only way to end rivalrous dynamics is to share a common goal. All of humanity will only rally around a shared goal if it benefits us all equally. The only goal that benefits us all equally is the goal of meeting EVERYONE'S emotional and physical needs unconditionally. If we set conditions, we are going to continue to fight over who sets the conditions. Needs can be determined scientifically if we define a need as that which the lack of will cause anybody to develop pathologies.
The key to aligning humanity is to raise awareness about the fact that practically everyone will become a benefit to society if their psychological and physical needs are met, but absolutely everyone will become a burden or danger to society if their needs are not met.
Then if you want to catalyze a paradigm shift by fostering the practice of peer to peer altruism to meet everyone's needs UNCONDITIONALLY in a decentralized way, all you have to do is get 100 people in your area to join an altruistic network that facilitates sharing, gifting and volunteering among citizens.
You basically propose purportedly scientifically justified race to the bottom with regard to 'needs' defined in such manner. Some historical social phenomena come to mind.
What else is our goal if it isn't to meet people's needs? Meet some people's desires?
How is it beneficial to you or anybody for other human beings to develop mental and physical pathologies? It is clearly not
I believe you are concerned with the weaponization of compassion, in this case rational compassion.
If you knew that freedom and privacy are fundamental human needs without which everybody will develop pathologies, and this can be demonstrated scientifically so that we no longer need to philosophise about "rights" and instead scientifically justify the importance of freedom and privacy, would your concern be resolved?
Be serious please

@@lordkelvin441 I made a reply and it got erased it seems.
Can you give humanity a better goal than striving for all humans to develop and become the best versions of themselves? Can you suggest a more rigorous method for doing that than science?
That's most unfortunate, I however sincerely hope that before responding to my point below - you'll critically examine your method of thought because it shows concerning similarity to methods engaged by those responsible for these Ponzi Schemes as defined by Guest.
Word 'rigorous' is derivative of Latin 'rigor' meaning 'inflexible'. Inflexibility is not a feature of living organisms. That means for instance, that by engaging - for inherently non-normative reasons - rigorousness in scientific process you can't make universal claims within all areas of scientific research. On the other hand inflexibility might be a feature of material objects we create in recognition of non-universal utility of that attribute, just as it has non-universal utility in science.
@@lordkelvin441can you answer my questions?
I dont really understand OpenAI the point here. People being mad that a board acted against a CEO succeeding in all metrics is not the same thing as people being unable to comprehend a board doing anything.
You can be mad when a good employee gets fired and still think that an important part of a bosses job is firing the under performers.
Unless I am missing something, you would want to find evidence of people getting mad at a board doing a good job and ousting a under performing CEO for evidence to backup the idea that boards are not capable of governing CEOs any longer.
A purge may come when our disgust reaches a climax.

Is the system itself not already an AI ?
"Maybe in our quest to make knowledge legible too early, we sometimes destroy what makes it viable." Holy fuck why did no one tell me advisors this.
It already has collapsed.
We're currently in the post-collapse apocalyptic phase
Mass urbanization leads to population collapse. We're seeing this now in real time all over the "advanced countries". The only country I can think of that was able to seriously increase its birth rate in a short time was 1930s Germany. Today it's even worse than ever because of an increasing number of women spending their most fertile years pursuing degrees and careers. It's extremely politically incorrect to say it, but it's an undeniable fact. This whole "progressive" model of civilization is doomed. Something more traditional will eventually replace it.

Understanding diodes is one way to become convinced that Johnson Nyquest thermal electrical noise can be rectified and aggregated. Development teams will find other ways to accomplish this wide mission. Taxonomically there should be many ways ways to convert heat directly into electricity.
A practical device may use an array of Au needles in a SiO2 matrix abutting N type GaAs. These were made in the 1970s when registration technology was poor so it was easier to fabricate arrays and select one diode than just make one diode.
There are other plausible breeches of the second law of thermodynamics. I hope a lot of people will join in expanding the breech. Please share the results of progress or setbacks.
These devices wouldn't probably become segmented commodities sold with minimal margin 4over supply cost. They would be manufactured by advanced automation that does not need financial incentive. Applicable best practices would be adopted. Business details would be open public knowledge. Associated people should move as negotiated and freely and honestly talk. Commerce would be a unified conglomerate of planetary scale of diverse local cooperatives. There is no need of wealth extracting top commanders. We do not need often token philanthropy from the top if the wide majority of people can afford to be generous.

Death is part of life. Entropy is not a "bug", it is a feature.
The next generation of young people stumbling on conservatism.

You look great in a turtle neck
Here you are explaining my visceral hatred of Grammerly and MS Word. It all ends in brown noise of painless diarrhea.
I'd love to know which six essays Samo Burja wrote that catpured this sine qua non of essay writing! ua-cam.com/video/A3Zd2K0BJoI/v-deo.html
You don't. You embrace the fact that every single civilization in history has collapsed. It happens naturally. We evolved every single time and came back better. And this is what is actually driving the human race from naked cave dweller to moon walker and beyond.
It's a force beyond most people's abilities to even fathom. As they are solely the product of civilization. Even though the human race as spent more time in anarchy and outside of civilization than within it.
This process really separates those who contribute more then they take from civilization. And those who take more then they contribute.
But it's a process that has to happen and looks like we are right in the sweet spot to see it the collapse part.
If you truly feel you most save civilization. The first and only thing you can do to fix the collective is maintain the one collective that matters. The marriage of man and wife to raise biological children in a loving environment.
You can't save a collective of millions of people for the greater good of millions, if you can't maintain a collective of two for the greater good of your children.
I sure wish I could make a career out of being both unusual and interested in knowledge while doing unexplainable things for unexplainable reasons.
The creation of a new social technology is way more costly in a much more varied spectrum of expenses than anyone can understand unless they've done it.
Per Samos last comment in the interview: The Hipster Energy Team of Non-Materialist GPTs is going to look into putting together an effective accounting of our politics and economy. Stay tuned.
Actually I don't know if we will. That sounds like a lot of work and we've got a lot on our plate. It's exhausting being an unfunded eccentric person focused on big picture stuff at the expense of all my personal relationships and viability as a member of society.
Christianization of former Norse migrants turned invaders of Rome went later very poorly, failing to eradicate their drive toward imperialism. You can't separate warrior and priesthood classes if someone equates acts and arts of combat with religious practices. This of course was hardly exclusive to Norse civilization, this model lasts and evolves in southeastern Asia for millenia.
Lithuania, Poland, Czechoslovakia and Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Kyrgistan cannot be put even in the same bracket.
The Central Asians were simply caught in the situation. There was no revolution there, no impetus for change. If it was up to them to decide they would remain in the USSR for another 100 years. They kept all old Russian cadre and practices as well as communist elites of their own native extraction in place for a decade not knowing what to do and bewildered that USSR had to collapse at all.
Don't draw conclusions about the whole thing from the Central Asia. They naturally stayed dictatorships since there was no impetus for them to embrace any kind of democracy at all.
Europeans on the other hand were grass root revolutions and their present democracies reflect that.
A problem with Peer Review is.....What if you have no Peers. Think about it and its ramifications :-D
I don't think I have any of the listed required personality traits. So this is unlikely to be an idea with much potential to run but this is the best I could do; ua-cam.com/video/Rfa4qmUfkPo/v-deo.html. I loved this conversation, best I've seen online yet!!
Thanks! Please share it far and wide :)
