A question and concern that’s frequently expressed is the fear of “machine’s making decisions” or “automated decision making” In this video Jacque elaborates on the concept of automated decision making and discusses some of the important decisions in every day life are in fact already assigned to machines.
Here Jacque discusses the limitations of current systems of decision making and advocates the use of research and development in managing our resources and solving problems.
Jacque discusses how we are taught to assign decision making to governments or deities and how we can make more responsible desicions to guide our own future.
Without a vision of what the future can be we are bound to repeat the same mistakes over and over again. All my life I have seen wars, lies, embezzlement, corruption, economic break down, and the failure of politicians to solve problems without the use of force or militarism. If we fail to accept responsibility for our own future, others will do our thinking for us, soon leading to fascism.
The Venus Project advocates dealing with the causes of our social problems instead of trying to patch up our outdated system. We think the best formula for global sustainability without war, crime, unemployment, poverty, and hunger requires declaring the earth’s resources as the common heritage of all people in a resource based economy.
