Can we align the individual and the collective?
Or, to frame the question in my own way: Can we move from adverserial thinking & behaviours to #mutualwellbeing ones?
Why bother with the question?
Because it has a major impact on the quality of your life...

Could #AI have a positive effect on human behaviour?
Those prone to predatory behaviours (fixated on power, status & money) will use the technology to further their delinquent wants but could humans & #AI holding humane mindsets counter that and even advance #mutualwellbeing?

Not achieving the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals doesn't just mean we miss out on a better future, it also means we have an increased risk of a downward spiralling future for every person in every nation

We are often exhorted to "Win" in order to motivate ourselves, but an alternative motivation is "Succeed".
Does this matter?
Well yes if you wish to encourage progress in acts of #mutualwellbeing, since winning often implies others lose, while success can be for everyone.

@umbrarchist.bsky.social It is rare to hear anyone seriously ask "What is the purpose of the Economy", even though it is vital to all humans & life.
My own alternative might be for it to enable #sustainable #diversityrich #mutualwellbeing based on #openknowledge (as against a fixed ideology).
Are we merely preserving "Money matters most" thinking in our current #economics, #politics & #culture, rather than properly change the systems we live within to focus on sustainable #mutualwellbeing?
Here is an article challenging complacent thinking about where we are curently heading..

If one of humanity's biggest challenges is to shift societies more towards #mutualwellbeing thinking (based on #diversityrich #openknowledge, not fixed ideologies), where can one start?
Perhaps by calling for the deeper adoption of the #GoldenRule in #Education, #Politics, #Economics & #Culture?

Is the path to mutual wellbeing better built on:
1) Polarized-positioning and Argument-twisting in a Winner-takes-all Debate
OR
2) Inclusive, Reasoned and Reasonable, Reflective-Discourse?
#MutualWellbeing #OpenKnowledge #WellbeingPolitics
Which matters more:-
To obtain a perceived 'justice' for past harms,
OR
To develop a future of mutual wellbeing?

Is the arrogance with which we describe ourselves as 'Homo Sapiens' indicative that we are far from wise?
The optimist in me hopes, in a few million years, human beings might consciously evolve to have the wisdom to participate in #mutualwellbeing governance rather than accept the rule of bullies🤔
To be first in moving mindsets, governance and behaviours towards #MutualWellbeing [ which by the way is a concept built off the foundations of the Biblical Golder Rule] would be real leadership but when 'to be first' is understood as building abusive power over others, it is at best a sad concept.
I regret that at the moment I have not found the time to listen to enough of the podcasts in accidentalgods.life but I sense @mandascott.bsky.social brings forward very thought provoking ideas for those considering how to build a world centred around #regenerative #mutualwellbeing
