Jim Rutt joins co-hosts Ben Goertzel, Lisa Rein and Desdemona Robot, to discuss “Game A” - what it is, why we need it, and how we might get there.

Game B was an idea initialized by the need for change since Game A, the current system, is self-destructive/extinctionary and not sustainable, and is probably coming to an end, in the not too distant future. Jim Rutt and a group of renegade thinkers came together to explore why the world needs changing and how it can be achieved.

Game B is trying to find a way to define a new social operating system consistent with our ecosystem's limits and, even more importantly, probably congruent with our nature as human beings. 

Episode 5’s Featured Guest - Jim Rutt 

Jim Rutt was one of the leaders behind Network Solutions, which was the first internet domain registrar. He was also CTO of Thomson Reuters, and has been a serial entrepreneur, especially in the enterprise software space, as well as a complex systems researcher and a trustee of the Santa Fe Institute, an organization which really brought complex systems science into the fore. 

In recent years, Jim has been working on a variety of really interesting ideas, including potential reforms of the US and global monetary systems, some experimenting with AI and AGI R & D. 

Jim brought together a group of thinkers from different fields to work on the biggest of all problems. In time, it developed a name: , "Game B." He is a proponent of the “Game B” effort to overhaul the entire social, economic and psychological system of all species on the planet.
