Why did the initial visions for the world wide web not work out quite as their inventors intended? It seems that it boils down to the incentives for building it. In some ways, you can consider the last three weeks to have been an extended consideration of how we might alter society's incentive structures using global, borderless, ownerless protocols for money.

You've been led through how to think about a vastly interconnected world, and you have spent quality time critical concepts like [trust](/learn/module-0/trust), [value](/learn/module-1/value), [meaning](/learn/module-1/meaning), [money and speech](/learn/module-2/money-speech). It's time to apply these ideas to the ultimate problem: how to free the shared record of human knowledge from closed, rent-seeking corporations and extricate ourselves from an extractive attention economy.

Rather, we will explore how [making public and verifiable the way incentives are structured](/learn/module-1/dreamers/#learning-the-language) can enable us to create more wholesome structures together. Public, [verifiable](/learn/module-3/lock-it-open/#the-path-forward) , and intentional incentives can arise from and perpetuate diverse ways of being and creating. It’s up to us to figure out how to implement and enshrine unity in diversity.

We recommend you take 18 minutes to listen to an early internet pioneer on how we might design for group behaviours that "smooth out" incentive curves over time, as well as explicity entangle the economic fates of people and the platforms they choose as examples of the sort of work it might bemeaningful to engage in at this point in time.

## Persuasion

What constitutes persuasive language? Words which perform what they say. If an <Link to="https://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/smullyan.html">essay about humour</Link> is itself funny, then that essay is more likely to convince you about what humour is.
