triston harris: I think people can look at the long litany of problems and feel overwhelmed, or get to despair in a hurry. And you've actually offered a vision for how technology can be consciously employed. i want that transparent block chain on a budget for every country in the world. We used to have this phrase that everyone is on the same team, they just don't know it yet. If you take the actual risk seriously, it should reorient your life. No s i genuinely feel me to daniel schmachtenberger on line at cansilians project dot org. You can find more information about our podcast club with daniel on july ninth

We’ve explored many different problems on Your Undivided Attention — addiction, disinformation, polarization, climate change, and more. But what if many of these problems are actually symptoms of the same meta-problem, or meta-crisis? And what if a key leverage point for intervening in this meta-crisis is improving our collective capacity to problem-solve?

Our guest Daniel Schmachtenberger guides us through his vision for a new form of global coordination to help us address our global existential challenges. Daniel is a founding member of the Consilience Project, aimed at facilitating new forms of collective intelligence and governance to strengthen open societies. He's also a friend and mentor of Tristan Harris.

This insight-packed episode introduces key frames we look forward to using in future episodes. For this reason, we highly encourage you to listen to this edited version along with the unedited version.

We also invite you to join Daniel and Tristan at our Podcast Club! It will be on Friday, July 9th from 2-3:30pm PDT / 5-6:30pm EDT. Check here for details.
