Human health requires all human efforts and effects be shared openly, but “all humans” have no voice or say
I have studied why promises of this scale get delayed for decades – “fusion”, “climate change”, “cancer”, “poverty”. A very long list. It is primarily that organizations are not taxed for global and systemic issues. Any country or continent cannot monitor, let alone enforce. So it is systemic and requires every player in the global game to act, but any one of them can delay. It is hard to say simply, but not too hard to model. Greed is the most serious system breaker. Any one group can simply not share one critical piece, even without knowing its value, and stop an entire world. Part of that is many of these solutions are dependent on a very few people. They are busy and if they have to go back a few steps and start from scratch, they simply cannot do it, or will not.
Making global open, verifiable, sustainable systems is possible, but it requires at least 10% effort by all players, and that simply does not happen. The world will react globally but only to dire threats. Death is not considered a dire threat. Everyone dies, and a few million, even a few hundred million or a billion are disposable. I am not saying it ought to be different, but 26 years looking a all countries, all industries, all global issues and global opportunities, that is mostly what I have seen. I set up the Famine Early Warning System about 40 years ago, so I know what is required to set up global monitoring and intervention systems. And how to integrate data from all countries, on all subjects. Now using all AIs and all data on the Internet. Technically many thing are possible, but words are too easy. The UN is a game, and no way to hold anyone accountable. Covid was a huge grab. I am just mentioning things. Do not take offense.
I am watching this today to map “the human organism” on the Internet. That is NOT “life sciences” it is the thing itself.
I remember most of what I read or think about, and have much of what I have seen in the last 54 year professionally. So I do not have to learn these technologies. I know all the computer, sensor, data, algorithms, open data, collaboration methods, chemistry, mathematics. So I know much of the next few steps and possible pathways for all the groups involved. I cannot write it all down, but some of the newer AIs and traditional lossless machine methods can be applied to “the human organism” or “Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells” down to atomic bond level. There are groups working at that level, it is coming together, I am trying to hurry it along.
Some of the critical technologies can be built just by mapping new efforts. The people are smart, they already work on the right things mostly, but need to change priorities at the 10% level overall and a few to stop and completely reverse fast.
I just started an Internet Foundation project on “nano manipulation” for emerging 3D methods for control of solids, liquids, gases, plasmas, jets and fields. I do not pre-judge anything these days. I just start the general topic area, gather and index and verify everything that comes up and put it into a global open form. I am trying to get the AI makers to encode the whole Internet and keep it open to reduce too much ambiguity when the raw data of the AI training gets corrupted by simply not coding the information correctly.
