An ecumenical person is someone who can inhabit multiple frameworks without collapsing them into each other, or defensively rejecting them.

To be ecumenical comes out of the Greek oikoumenē—‘the inhabited world’. Being ecumenical is about how one positions oneself in relation to a shared world that is already plural, already divided, already layered with difference.

@dwarkesh_sp This is wrong. Nothing costs zero, not even nothingness. Someone's paying for it. That's why there is no abundance yet.

If AI scientists are writing millions of papers, many of which are slop, and some of which are incremental progress, how would we identify the one or two which come up with an extremely productive new idea? In 1948, Shannon was one of hundreds of engineers at Bell Labs working on how to cleanly send voice signals over noisy copper wires. His paper sat in the same technical journal as reports on reducing static and building better filters. How would you recognize that he has come up with this very general framework for thinking about information and communication channels, which over the coming decades would have enormous use from domains as far apart as cryptography to genetics to quantum mechanics? It seems like it can take fields multiple decades to recognize the significance of unifying new concepts. Because it is on that time scale that the fruits of such general concepts lead to new discoveries across many different fields. We’ve managed to solve this peer review problem for human scientists (at least somewhat). Now we’ll need to do it at a much greater scale for the mass of AI science that will be thrown at us.

What @blaiseaguera calls "collective intelligence" is what others, like @brianeno, have called "scenius." Once we jettison the romantic notion of the individual creative genius, we can see how all innovation and invention are the product of assemblages and #remix.
Blaise Agüera (@blaiseaguera.bsky.social)@blaiseaguera

We live with the illusion that invention, discovery, and creation are individual achievements, when in reality they’re collective. By expanding our collective intelligence—human and artificial—we have the potential to flourish at planetary scale.
