Excessive and by and large incoherent investments in information technology, including scattered attempts to attain bogus intelligence, have resulted in the fail of 99% of all relevant information, a failure to invest in information-sharing and sense-making tools, a failure to nurture human being intelligence (HUMINT) networks, and a failure to capitalize on the radical (root) value represented by holistic analytics with embedded true cost economics. In passing, considering of regime corruption enabling predatory industrial practices, nosotros have too neglected open source everything applied science without which nosotros cannot achieve truly smart cities or smart nations or a prosperous globe that works for all. A Global Brain that more ably melds human and artificial intelligence is a potential accelerate enabling the technological shaping of our future, and positive social modify. The four approaches to creating a Global Brain include organicism, encyclopedism, emergentism, and evolutionary cybernetics. The limitations of computer processing and scientific reductionism are briefly reviewed in order to reject organicism and encyclopedism as primary approaches. A way forward is outlined that restores the axis of the human factor in accelerating emergentism and evolutionary cybernetics. An Open Source (Technologies) Agency is proposed equally a platform for blending artificial intelligence with human intelligence in full transparency – a Global Brain / World Encephalon network and tool-kit that connects all minds to all information in all languages all the time.

There are two root causes -- the corruption of the US political process that disenfranchises sixty percentage of the public and blocks Independents and small parties from ballot access, and a dysfunctional intelligence architecture that lacks integrity -- as Henry Kissinger has observed, intelligence is not necessary to the exercise of power (as expert past the elite-driven Usa national security state) and is often useless.

No ane since President Ike Eisenhower and Project Solarium has ever attempted an official honest, comprehensive, and coherent formulation of a grand strategy that balances ends, means, and ways for all government functions, not only in the national security arena, where the military is consuming 60% of the disposable upkeep in 2015, but across the domestic front as well.

This essay began with a unproblematic question: should the Army be ownership 55-threescore ton infantry vehicles and preparing for a Big War with China or Russia on "over there?" The answer to that question turns out to be no, merely just if the Air Strength can practice precision nuclear deterrence and the US Navy tin can build a 450 ship Navy.

Surprisingly and well-nigh helpful, by creating a grand strategy at iv levels of assay (strategic, operational, tactical, and technical) in which four stove-pipes are considered side by side (White Firm & Congress; Intelligence & Covert Actions; Diplomacy & Development; Army, Air Force, Navy & Marines) a process has been identified that could remove Congressional opposition to long-needed reforms -- a process that is not only job and acquirement neutral from commune to district, but because of its overall coherence, enables both the reconstitution of the home front, and the creation of a strong war machine that is affordable, balanced, and flexible.

CI must be appreciated in a cosmic and spiritual context likewise every bit an ecological and social context that respects the inherent intelligence and communications skills of plants and animals forth with the emerging understanding of how all thing is energy and energy is a grade of communication, CI in the 21st Century – a human try – must focus on the true meaning of intelligence as testify-based decision-support, rooted in holistic analytics, true cost economics, and open source everything enabling open source engineering. In this article I provide a roadmap for eradicating corruption and waste in all forms through the creation of a School of Hereafter-Oriented Hybrid Governance, a World Encephalon Establish, a Global (Serious) Game, and an Open Source Everything Innovation Hub. My hope is that nosotros can reinvent intelligence to re-engineer and re-open the human academy, economy, governance, and guild such that the five billion poorest are empowered to create infinite sustainable wealth at the same fourth dimension that we finish, in a not-fierce style, the pathologies of Western commercialism, colonialism, and militarism.
