Lesson 1: Transforming Design

Design is carried out by proprietary teams competing for a share of the pie. The new paradigm involves enlargement of the pie by everyone collaborating to obtain better results. This lesson discusses the mechanics of how such a transformation could take place by citing examples of current paradigms and how a different way of thinking would alter these paradigms. We then quantifies the potential cost reduction, reduction of effort, and quality improvements to be expected - and implications for general improvement in life satisfaction and improved mental health of the population. Several examples are presented across the world for housing, agriculture, cars, spaceships, and semiconductor plants. Conclusions are drawn regarding potential application to universal basic assets, democratic governance, eradication of resource conflicts, and creating a world where nobody is left behind.

Swarm Collaboration

Swarms allow for scalable on-demand production, and are thus important for resilience and antifragility.
