The Choice Is Ours

It's a 2 hour video that spends 1:50 talking about present problems in the most 'overhead' way possible, and then 10 minutes talking about the actual proposals. No suggestions on how to transform current polices to that post-scarcity, post-borders, fully-automated, world. No consideration of different manifestations according to culture. No mention of existing projects and policies that aims towards the problems stated. They do mention some interesting ideas, such as:

-Behavioral science combined with AI and rigorous testing applied to world problems (as opposed to being a tool to make people buy more stuff) -Creating canals through the deserts to foster growth in them, and to lower sea levels. -Experimental University-City. Expanding research hubs to be 'testing grounds' for new tech. Basically experimental towns with a focus on automation (might already exist?)

Note again though, these are all mentioned in passing. The rest is about showing off the architecture and urban planning designs of this one guy. His style is all-right, nothing you haven't seen before in neo-futurist or fibre-glass futurist works from the 70s and 80s. The circular urban plan is 1200 years old, and today everyone talks about 'cellular cities as well.

The whole thing came off as cultish to me, to be honest. Quite disappointed.
