The African proverb "If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go together” sums up the challenges facing science in the age of AI
But w/intentional design of new coordination infrastructure, maybe we can move *far, fast and together*?

1/ Excited to share that @exgenesis and I are part of the upcoming Big if True Science (BiTS) cohort! BiTS is an accelerator at @RenPhilanthropy for scientists & technologists to design ambitious R&D programs. Our “Big if True” hypothesis is that >
Meet the 14 exceptional scientists and innovators who will define the next decade of breakthrough innovation as the @coeff_giving x Big if True Science Accelerator Americas cohort.
Here's what they're building: 🧵

cosmik is Capitalism 2. it's time to think about production outside the system of production. most of the production of researchers are creative excess uncaptured by institutions,
1/ 📢 @CosmikNetwork has been awarded $1M in grant funding by @open_phil and @AsteraInstitute! These generous grants will support our development of Semble - a social "micro-knowledge" network for researchers. Think Are.na + Goodreads for research!

Important discussion & great rallying point for coordinated metascience efforts!

Yes!
@jaybaxter and I recently discussed this + the importance of building at the protocol level so that it can be truly interoperable.
Jay also shared universalnotes.org/ which seems like a great start and something we'd like @CosmikNetwork to support.

This looks interesting

Useful area for experimentation.
In particular, I am interested in how platforms like these can give scientists ways of listing “ideas in their desk drawer” (experiments worth running that don’t have time to pursue, but think someone should).

Imagine trying to land a plane in the fog without a heads-up display. Pilots used to do it but “flying blind” meant frequent disasters. Today, we're browsing the web in that same fog. >

AI can help us "liberate" data trapped non-interoperable formats (eg screenshots). Beyond that though, we also need better information navigation interfaces. Finally, protocols for reliable social annotations should be a core feature of browsing - we’re working on all of these!

Human data makes AI better, but does AI make humans better? Unfortunately this is far from obvious (eg cognitive atrophy due to outsourcing)
Hybrid intelligence is a useful concept: co-evolving AI-augmented collective intelligence where humans and AI improve each other over time
