Gamification to improve our world: Yu-kai Chou at TEDxLausanne

  • www.tedxlausanne.org - Yu-kai Chou is an entrepreneur, speaker, and gamification pioneer. Early in life, he had the epiphany that while games had the power to delight and engage the mind, they were not productive and only resulted in emotional gains. He became obsessed with the combination of how to make games more productive, and simultaneously, how to make life more fun. Since then, he has created a variety of game-based technology startups.
    In 2012, he stepped down as CEO of his startup and published his gamification framework Octalysis, which has since been translated into nine languages. He is now a full-time consultant and speaker on gamification. In his talk, he explains us some ways in which gamification has been used and could be used in the future to make the world a better, more sustainable, and more fun place to live our lives.

    10 years later, still a great talk! Yu-kai Chou's ideas about gamification are so inspiring. It reminds me of how using rewards and challenges can significantly boost engagement, just like what I've seen improve motivation in organization with a little help of Workstatus. Thanks TEDx and Chou for this insightful presentation! 😊🌟

    This is such an eye-opener!! This is why more language learners are enjoying Duolingo because the team is so great in incorporating these cores into their game. Social relatedness, loss/avoidance, curiousity, impatience, etc. Thank you sir for this TedTalk!!!! 😎 Brilliant!!!!

    came here from yakuza 3, stayed for the model
    Octalysis summary (will edit as i go)
    1. Epic meaning & calling (aka your backstory, the MC's calling, the thing you feel related to)
    2. Development, accomplishment
    the thing that got you hooked, messages in-game that tell you you're awesome
    3. Creativity & feedback
    Allowing yourself to use different ways to solve your 'quests' everyday, basically developing a way to engage yourself in every little thing
    4. Ownership & possession
    The thing that makes you want to collect more of it. eg. massive level or skill points, EXP, in-game currency, number of SSR heroes you own, etc. IRL the more money you wanna collect, the harder you'll work for it
    5. Social influence and relatedness
    Changing people's behavior based on the things they see around them. It may drive you to change based on how people succeed in the same environment as you
    6. Scarcity and Impatience
    You have a goal that you haven't achieved, a thing you don't have yet. You act upon the urgency to achieve that thing you were looking for, because it doesn't exist yet.
    7. Curiosity, unpredictability
    "Because you dont have it yet, you wanna own it."
    8. Loss and Avoidance
    you actively do something to prevent bad things from happening. eg blocking your enemies in a tower defense game. always upgrading your heroes so that the enemies don't plow through them.

    Well if companies are going to use gamification to *manipulate* people to serve their *selfish interests* , its a *big NO* .
    But if people are using gamification in their life to make life _playful_ and _joyful_ and NOT allowing external factors to influence their decisions, i.e. there is *no dark psychology* involved, then gamification is indeed the _best_ thing to have...

And an engaging game applied to life-skill and mental health education like Resilience, Optimism, and Self-leadership is GOLD. Aligned with human basic needs or core motivation, gamification can become the go-to mental health tool, helping children and teens around the world to get through their 'pains'. Thank you Yu-kai Chou for your EPIC ideas and creations.

    Blockchain technology can help a lot in the process of gamification of society. Different types of smart money, with different properties, can be used as points in complex social games. We can have money with expiration date, money that can just be used in a small neighborhood, or that can just be used in groups in collective action. The possibilities are endless.

    I really enjoyed the informativeness of this talk, and Octalysis is a very clever and comprehensive framework. I also really appreciated the many examples of problem-solving through gamification.
    I was less than enthusiastic about the implications of gamification changing the world. It is certainly doing so, gamification helps hold attention beyond even the primary purpose of the service or product, and that is something that every product or business wants when harvesting attention in our attention economy. Naomi Klein said we don't have ads now, just brands. Similarly, we seem not to have products and services now, but engagement platforms in the digital space.
    Gamification is a powerful tool, but it could be used in any way, for seamier motivations. In this talk as well, most of the examples stress getting people's attention to do tasks they should do, for personal or altruistic reasons, and making them enjoyable. But for every one of those, a hundred examples exist which only seek to exploit psychology to gain one or another form of revenue.
    I am not criticising the talk, simply challenging the belief expressed that gamification can change the world for the better.

    • @davidzubek5035
      @davidzubek5035 2 роки тому +2

      I agree, and I also find the idea of a completely gamified world very dystopian. There are certainly benefits to many uses, but It feels wrong to just rid yourself of all your chores and responsibilities. I think people need those to grow as well. And there's also a big difference between gamifying your own chores to motivate yourself, or having someone gamify it all for you. Because the reason people have these core drives, isn't to play fictional games by someone elses rules, but to get through real life on your own terms.

    a very creative idea which can motivate learners to learn more, but as a gamer myself I'm very skeptical in this idea of gamification. I don't think it'll be as effective as it sounds like if the idea applied in the education field and it's highly unlikely able to capture the essence of learning itself, this should be used as a third option to educate young learners but not should be used for the long-term, the problem with this gamification is how the learners able to maintain the balance between learning and playing and of course it might contradict between fantasy and reality.

Wouldn't that be the real solution instead of having everyone vaccinated untill we come to a point where a new mutaton pops up and we just have no clue what it does to us if we were not vaccinated. Which is important, because if we forget to live without the vaccin. We will keep on vaccinating ourselves at some point for no reason. Which can never be a good thing.

    Gamification: The art of having a good time while investing time. When the investment has a negative (for you) return, gamification may also mean to exchange your time or money for a token, nudge, wink, like, or badge that has no monetary or otherwise practical value to you but rather to someone else, with the belated recognition that you don’t need no ‘steenking badges’!
