People / Projects to Track

Note: the Superconnector chats page currently requires login to view the private roster, so this list reflects people/projects visible from World Issue Tracker plus notes already captured here.

• Lu — horoscope guessing / rapid personal read skill.
• Tom Diebel — solar energy for basic access, digital connectivity, and basic modern amenities; multilingual connector.
• Lin K — deeper root-cause self-inquiry; art/music; tai chi.
• Lin — role/person fit and helping people avoid being stuck doing the wrong thing.
• Hannah — ASD/ADHD project; looking for a team.
• Jacob — Feishu/Lark account incompatibility blocking US-China collaboration.
• Lucy Tong — active AI literacy to avoid passive dependency and human skill erosion.
• Bat-Orgil Bat-Erdene / New Nomad Institute — polycrisis, nomadic knowledge, climate migration, youth/Global South governance, education, WASH, and Mongolia grassland/desertification issues.

Recently Added / Worth Tracking on World Issue Tracker

• Automatic translation for cross-language collaboration — Translate issues, comments, and descriptions into each user's preferred language so multilingual participants can collaborate across Chinese, English, and other languages.
• Educational equity + personalized learning — The one-teacher/thirty-students model amplifies inequality; personalized learning should become broadly accessible rather than a luxury.
• AI in agricultural intelligent breeding — Apply AI to genomic analysis and breeding decisions to shorten breeding cycles, improve trait prediction, and support food security.
• Better relationship matching — Current dating apps create high effort and low compatibility outcomes; explore deeper compatibility frameworks, AI-assisted matching, and evidence-based relationship science.
• Feishu/Lark account incompatibility — Cross-border US-China collaboration is blocked when Lark and Feishu accounts cannot join the same meetings, and Feishu requires a Chinese phone number.
• AI-native education — Redesign the learning loop around personalized diagnosis, scientific training, continuous feedback, and measurable capability growth rather than bolting AI onto traditional teaching.
• Task communication is too noisy — Important points get buried in low-value task messages; needs summaries, decision logs, filtering, and better collaboration norms.
• Micro credit platform — Scalable financing / micro-credit direction.
• Biodiversity data platform — Aggregate, standardize, and share biodiversity data globally for conservation, research, policy, and local communities.
• Build active AI literacy — Help non-technical users work actively with AI instead of passively consuming outputs and losing core skills.

Earlier Global-Solutions Issues

• Interlocking polycrisis — ecological collapse, unchecked AI/tech acceleration, social fragmentation, and geopolitical instability should be handled together.
• Democracy + youth participation — advance democracy and youth participation in civic life.
• Education that cultivates wisdom — promote equitable education that encourages imagination, wisdom, and ecological understanding.
• Indigenous nomadic knowledge — preserve and value pastoral-nomadic knowledge for ecological survival.
• WASH access — address global gaps in clean water and sanitation access.
• Youth + Global South governance — increase representation in global decision-making forums.
• Climate migration / nomadic mobility — support resilience as grassland degradation and dzud disasters force pastoral communities to move.
• Mongolia grassland desertification — climate change and desertification threaten Mongolia's pastoralists.
