The Lego Problem
When I was a kid, the rules of Lego were simple: many pieces, all able to connect in many ways, led to many outcomes.
That almost drove the company into bankruptcy, though.
Lego kits saved the business. Each kit has just one way to do the work, follow the instructions carefully. Industrial indoctrination in a box.
While it made Lego plenty of money, it didn’t create a generation of creative thinkers. And following instructions is what most organizations want.
Now that robots and AI are here to follow instructions, we might now need people who can draw plans, not simply follow them.

We don’t know what the asset guarantees and FDIC takeovers will actually cost. Conservatively, we’re up to about $1.5 trillion in taxpayer money — which divides up to equal nearly $5,000 from every man, women and child in the country.
Not a pretty picture. Now what?
