I've written a piece for Demos Helsinki proposing a broad framework for thinking about how governments should work in the second half of this decade. It draws on work by many other people involved in the frontiers of innovation in government. I call it 'Generative Shared Intelligence' - and argue that getting this right is the key to success in handling complex, unpredictable challenges with many partners.
Governments need to mobilise intelligence in all its forms; share it widely; and use it to regenerate economies, societies and ecology. The argument overlaps with, but is distinct from, claims that everything will be changed by data and AI; that everything should be subordinated to missions; that broader participation on its own is enough to guide reforms.
The piece links to many other more detailed papers. It hopefully provides a useful framework for anyone working to make governments more fit-for-purpose.
