Could the greatest threat to humanity be a trap of our own making?
In this wide-ranging interview, science communicator and poker champion Liv Boeree introduces the concept of Moloch: a metaphorical deity representing destructive, runaway competition between individuals.
From the perverse incentives of social media to the “race to the bottom” dynamics in business and AI, Boeree explores how individually rational actions can lead to collectively irrational outcomes.
Why do we keep choosing short-term gains that harm the long-term good? Why does it feel impossible to stop?
Drawing on insights from game theory, behavioural psychology, and technology, Boeree paints a picture of a world locked in a high-stakes coordination problem. She reflects on the addictive dopamine cycles of virality, the hidden cognitive costs of over-reliance on technology, and the sacrificing of some human values over others under capitalism.
Escaping the grip of Moloch, Boeree argues, will require not just better tech, but better collective wisdom. Tap the link to watch the full interview now: https://iai.tv/video/competition-destroys-collective-intelligence
