Vaccination against foolishness

Statistically, stupidity will lead the whole humanity, which faces global challenges that require new skills, to the universal catastrophe. Now 80% of the world’s population is already literate, but this is not the limit. New literacy, as a kind of inoculation against stupidity, should not be limited to the ability to read and write. We should set forth ambitious goals.

We need to reconsider approaches to teaching, among other things — in order to learn how to pose complex problems. To increase the speed of learning (new literacy or new fundamental knowledge), we need to use IT and artificial intelligence (AI).

This is exactly why Aisystant strives to create not only the best fundamental educational program in the world, but also the best Aisystant exocortex.

The following will help to implement the ideas of mass education:

  • Lower cost. First, we need to reduce the cost of the best education in the world. Education of the quality of a conventional Harvard can cost a hundred times cheaper.
  • Accessibility. And, second, we need to make complex learning accessible to more people. Thousands times more people can complete even the most complex training programs.

Aisystant is already working in both these areas, relieving these entry barriers. This is our recipe of changing the world. Such changes are difficult to achieve, like any ideal, but people have repeatedly proved that it is possible to achieve implementation of the most daring ideas.

The world of the future can be of any kind. Many breakthrough technologies will emerge, that we are not even aware of now. They will bring both benefits and new challenges that humanity can only cope with if it becomes smarter.

Any development of civilization involves manifold growth by all indicators. Corporations will need even more specialists, and the requirements for their qualifications will be higher. Governments will also compete for the smartest people. It is important that training is based on the best current theories (SoTA) and takes into account the needs at the level of the whole civilization and at the level of an individual, and not just at the level of private companies. Companies and governments rarely account for the interests of an individual (even during the literacy reform) and rarely think in terms of civilization, and this is the focus of our attention. Therefore, the program of Aisystant offers general fundamental approach to creation of systems at all system levels.

In order to initiate and disseminate the new literacy based on changes in fundamental education, we cannot rely only on the past experience. We should not focus on the order from the states, elites or large companies. In the new world, not literacy as such, but education and development will gain new meaning. It will be endless development of an actor, who creates successful systems and makes the world a better place.
