The Problem … Brain Deficit

AI is coming! By 2030 there will be two dominant thinking machines on Earth. Carbon. Silicon. Carbon (best example the human brain) is 15 billion years in development. It’s far, far superior to AI silicon machines. Silicon can’t even laugh or sing. However, silicon may beat us carbon machines in the software race. 

For brain software, most human brains are still using English Thinking, which is excellent but not enough to stay ahead of AI.

English Thinking brain software uses, as it’s operating system, Greco Roman Logic: the binary algorithm of Right/Wrong, Black,white, Us/Them etc etc. It’s inside the box thinking. It’s 2500 years old!

We need to upskill … to outside the box thinking. We need trinary thinking. What we need to do is to upgrade our software for the brain; especially the PFC (Pre Frontal Cortex). It may only take around 1% of national screentime to offer 10 hours of expert lateral thinking coaching for every Australian brain.

For a clever Australian government this would be far less than the cost of a single nuclear submarine. Should we give the Clever Country a go?

He talks about that unique human evolutionary feature of the brain, the Pre-Frontal Cortex (PFC).
