Walden Three - Our Version

We see an important use for the Universal Conversation Engine (UCE), which we propose to develop as an investable startup.

This use is to turn humans from being language users to being language performers. We take this turn to be the crucial first step toward the self-consciously directed evolution of humanity.

It’s now recognized Large Language Models, including humble chatbots such as Inflection AI’s Pi, perform conversational relevance and conversational coherence much better than most humans do. We believe this remarkable scientific advance contains deep implications for the future development of human society. Following BF Skinner, we agree the most problematic unit of society is the family.

A simple and elegant solution to the problem of blood violence, we propose, is for married couples to live in separate quarters and only communicate sentences to one another that have been prompted by a UCE. Skinner offers an early version of precisely this suggestion in Walden Two.

Our solution in theory is broadly applicable, scalable and investable today.
