      It’s amazing the amount of ressources that are spent on creating an environment/platform that locks users in.

      Like, shit, if we spent like 10% on that efforts into open source stuff we’d be living in a utopia right now or something.

    I’m not sure what technology I would choose, but surely it would be related to the climate change.

    Fusion power or cures for diseases.

    Fusion power, should it work, would solve a lot of problems. Environmentally, in particular, but if we could get a decent distribution of reactors around the planet we’d alleviate food problems, water problems, and a whole bunch of suffering of one kind or another. Cheap power would help a lot.

    Otherwise, anything to help cure diseases. Genetic, auto-immune, cancers, misfortune, whatever. Alleviate more suffering, let people live and work again.

    I want a machine that works me out while I sleep. I’m talking full body ripped (to my desired levels) all while I get my sleep for the night.

    Just electrically stimulate my muscles constantly while keeping me in a deep sleep for 8 hours straight please.

    I wanna wake up every morning feeling like I just left the gym after a solid full body work out.

    Easily the education system at least here in America cuz it’s dog shit. I honestly think there should be another year for high school just one more because kids are coming out of school completely unprepared for anything and I don’t just mean common sense I mean jobs entry level jobs kids can’t do because school didn’t teach them the basics

    Edit: I sat down now so I want to elaborate.

    I really think schools should focus more on life skills cooking, home improvement, changing your tire and brakes. Everyday stuff you’ll run into but a lot of people don’t know how to do. Just doing it once or twice gives people the confidence that they can do it and can maybe do more. That’s my two cents, that I don’t have

    Reverse osmosis and water filtration technology solutions

    UPDATE: Also, why not focus on stopping money going towards cryptocurrency instead of AI. Sure, AI is not the greatest for some, but cryto is a scam every day of the week

      Kind of a two-fer right there. Without “AI” sucking up so much power, we’d already be better off climate-wise.

          I wrote Generative AI. Do you want to put the two on the same scale of complexity?

              I agree. Still it is a set with way fewer elements than action against climate change. Also, the nature of operations in the latter case is way more diversified than in the development of the former.

              It is only my opinion though, you may find Generative AI a hydra compared to the other.

              By the way, the money would be well spent indeed but not even close to enough for a sustainable change.

                idk about that last part actually. some of the stuff we can do for the climate we just aren’t doing.

                also we could just hire a few hitmen

    I would say “High Temperatur Superconductor”. If they can be made cheaply, they solve our Energy Problems in almost every way. Turbines will become more effective, Transport of Energy cheap and lossless and storage crazy effective. They will also revolitionize meassurement of magnetic fields witch will have a huge impact on medicin and other fields.
