Shower of thoughts: Instead of keeping your Twitter/𝕏 payout, direct it towards a "PayoutChallenge" of your choosing - anything you want more of in the world!
Here is mine for this round, combining my last 3 payouts of $5478.51:
It is imperative that humanity not fall while AI ascends. Humanity has to continue to rise, become better alongside. Create something that is specifically designed to uplift team human. Definition intentionally left a bit vague to keep some entropy around people's interpretation, but imo examples include:
- Any piece of software that aids explanation, visualization, memorization, inspiration, understanding, coordination, etc...
- It doesn't have to be too lofty, e.g. it can be a specific educational article/video explaining something some other people could benefit from or that you have unique knowledge of.
- Prompts/agents for explanation, e.g. along the lines of recently released ChatGPT study mode.
- Related works of art
This challenge will run for 2 weeks until Aug 17th EOD PST. Submit your contribution as a reply. It has to be something that was uniquely created for this challenge and would not exist otherwise. Criteria includes execution, leverage, novelty, inspiration, aesthetics, amusement. People can upvote submissions by liking, this "people's choice" will also be a factor. I will decide the winner on Aug 17th and send $5478.51 :)

Last chance to see tonight + tomorrow!
PS also a great example of a Theatre Green Book production, made for lower carbon impact 🌍

This is a great illustration of what the new energy order looks like:
➡️large to small
➡️centralised to decentralised
➡️large grids to microgrids
➡️one-directional to bi-directional
➡️passive consumers to active prosumers
Of course this is simplified and highly stylised but it shows the direction of travel.

At @HTLGIFestival, seeing @SadiqKhan speak about his life & philosophy to @williamnhutton. Impressed by his genuine passion on green issues that matter to London - improving air quality took real leadership. Bringing nature back to clean up our rivers is the next big mission.
Good to see an ambitious and broad programme of environment topics organised by @serauk at the #LabourPartyConference. Important to link climate policy to the broader benefits for UK such as the green jobs transition.
The first Labour Party Conference as the party of government for 14 years starts in 1 week! Come and discuss Labour's approach to nature, climate change, energy, pollution, waste, transport and much more. Find us in the Labour Environment Hub kindly supported by @ecotricity.

In 2019, we set a goal to match 100% of the electricity we consumed across Amazon’s global operations – including our data centers, corp buildings, grocery stores, and fulfillment centers – with renewable energy by 2030.
Proud to share that we’ve already met that goal, seven years ahead of schedule, in 2023. To get there, we’ve been the largest corp buyer of renewable energy in the world for four years running, according to BloombergNEF, and we’ve invested billions of dollars in more than 500 solar and wind projects worldwide.
We know every year might look different on our path to net-zero carbon by 2040, but we’ll continue to invest in wind and solar while also supporting other forms of carbon-free energy.
If we want to create a better environment for our kids and our kids’ kids, it has to be more than just Amazon, it has to be every company. We’ve spent more than a decade building the knowledge, methodologies, and programs needed to tackle climate change head-on, and we’re now unlocking this proprietary info and making it available for everyone, so we can all accelerate supply chain decarbonization and make progress toward our Climate Pledge goal. You can find it for free at the Amazon Sustainability Exchange: exchange.aboutamazon.com/
We’re still early on in our sustainability journey, but we’re energized by the progress we’re making. aboutamazon.com/news/sustain…

Net zero policies supported by voters switching from Conservatives to Labour or the Lib Dems at the polls 🧵
In an election where energy security was key issue, UK public come down on the side of renewables
