This was a nice article. It's refreshing to see something on this
subject that doesn't wallow in the dystopian and can offer a more
positive outlook. <br>
<br>
This notion of an Algorithmic Self relates to what I've come to call
Social-Semantic Networking and the concept of the Digital Tao. What
the author describes as that personal software associated with the
Algorithmic Self I envision as the personal portion of a social
information web as part of a local semantic desktop platform like
Netention. And this serves as front-end interacting with a larger
social-semantic web platform. The basic point of a semantic web is
to automate the associations between information and in a
social-semantic network this is used to auto-associate the
cumulative 'stories' of people's lives and personal information (a
personal 'spime', if you will) in order to seek mutually
constructive connections across a community and within a networked
infrastructure without having to publicly share private information.
(because it's making associations based on metadata rather than
direct information which only needs to be shared within the limited
contexts of exchanges) Through analysis of association within the
personal semantic web models of personal need and intent can be
created and related to the intents of others, thus allowing the
larger social semantic web to create a basis of what I call a
cybernetic pronoia conspiracy--the Internet as a silent conspiracy
that's out to help you and everyone else because the network
actually understands you as a person. This also creates the basis of
social capital in the form of reputation and an alignment between
the modeled intent of an individual and the intent of the larger
society as a measure of personal merit. (this being used to mediate
the access to resources above a common baseline--the Integral Basic
Income coded into general production demand priorities) The idea of
the Digital Tao is a notion of total socio-economic automation
through the integration of a social-semantic web with an
environmental sensor web, a Smart Habitat web as part of the
infrastructure of the built habitat, and an open reciprocal�
production web deriving from the progressive dispersal,
localization, and infrastructure integration of production and
distribution systems. The Digital Tao relates a model of societal
intent and individual social capital to a deep quantitative analysis
of supply and demand so as to use predictive demand projection to
drive production instead of flows of currency. (assuming, of course,
we've achieved a shift in culture wto here we stop needing money to
live by virtue of UBI and stop chasing wealth to buy love or the
consumer crap to futilely substitute for it...) So the 'tao' in this
sense is the current of societal needs and intent reflected in a
'weight' of resource flows and production priorities coded into the
stigmergic organization of the production web. This determines the
baseline for the integral basic income--the baseline of goods
on-demand needed to keep people generally comfortable--and the less
routine flows to meet exceptional personal and group resource
demands (for personal and group projects) based on individual and
pooled social capital. The future production web is like a colony of
ants or termites whose behavior is managed by set of dynamically
weighted priorities determined by the intent modeled in the
social-semantic network and which 'smells' geographical
concentrations or pools of demand and social capital to direct
resource flows to meet that demand. <br>
