Humans could never do the GBB. Now they can.
For years we assumed that thinking harder meant thinking smarter: more intelligence, more data, more arguments. Neuroscience tells a less flattering story. Raw intelligence is excellent at defending a point of view. It is far less capable of escaping one.
That’s the problem GBB was designed to solve. GBB stands for GOOD, BAD, BETTER. A simple yet demanding thinking algorithm.
When you ‘Do a GBB!’ you generate ten GOOD points for an idea, ten BAD points against it, then ten BETTER points that break free of the original framing altogether. Not a compromise. An escape. Often a ten-times-better one. This is x10 Thinking.
Here’s the catch.
Over forty years of teaching across cultures and continents, the School of Thinking discovered the same limit again and again: humans can’t do the ten points GBB.
Most stall at three or four points. The brain loops, defends, justifies. That isn’t stupidity. It’s biology. The human brain evolved for fast judgments under uncertainty. Current views feel safe. Better views require effort, inhibition, imagination. Scarce resources in a busy cortex.
Until now.
In 2026, GBB finally got its killer app. Now anyone can generate ten GOOD, BAD, and BETTER points in seconds. Not as answers to follow, but as cognitive scaffolding. The effect is immediate and quietly radical.
The GBB doesn’t make you right. It makes you less trapped.
The future of intelligence isn’t artificial. It’s finally escaping from the trap of our ‘selves’.

Your idea of the Plato virus, and your model of ‘good and better vs good and bad’ has influenced all of my work, and I’m very grateful
