Clarifying this Tweet (I may have a had a beer when I sent it 😳) @commandodev has the best advice here - Avoid Sellers of Simplicity (ASS) + my advice - read Influence by Cialdini for a better understanding of if/when you're being gamed. https://t.co/InBeH4k2qs

@tom_morganKCP @Duncan_BBR It's a good take though. That's why Smil pushes back on techno-utopuans like Kurzweil. They fail to build into their predictions that the system might collapse in on itself. Geoffrey West maybe falls for this too (long time since I read SCALE)
