    While _goals_ and _ideas_ deserve more attention than _projects_ or _brands_, in absence of a way to refer to and identify with _goals_ and _ideas_, people tend to unite under brands, projects and companies, not goals, and humanity does not seem to have a systematic way to define and unite behind goals.
    
    Goals, unlike brands, require a few sentences to explain, and are harder to remember than brands. Most people know "Google", but don't know _"make the world's information universally accessible and useful"_, most people know "SpaceX", but don't know _"make life multi-planetary"_, etc.
    
    The absence of a means to easily refer to and unite behind goals makes competition unavoidable, because for important goals, multiple initiatives and groups are created, but only a few survive the competition. Some might think that this is good, and that's how market optimizes the world. However, competing companies tend not to share their competitive advantages in advance, which is not necessarily the best way to preserve diversity. It's a killing process. Such process has already killed a great number of organizations and life forms, which some would think are not worth of existence.
    
    When a significantly more efficient mutating replicator is created by an evolutionary process, it tends to take over the competitors, driving them to extinction.

    An evolutionary process sometimes creates new replicators, taking over the world. However, this doesn't have to be the case. In fact, evolutionary process can be efficient when a communication is good. For example, the kind of optimization problems that communicating neural cells do would likely require a multi-generational deaths for a genetic algorithm to achieve.
    
    So it seems that if we would make it easier for people to unite behind goals, it is a hope that we could enable ourselves to find optima by thinking systematically together in the level of goals and ideas, without subjecting individuals and groups to the unnecessary competition, which in fact, currently poses a risk to global security, as the first company that creates a super-intelligence may be the last.
    
    The ideas of how to help people unite behind _goals_ and _ideas_ (as opposed to _projects_, _brands_, _companies_) are very welcome.
    
    _Note: criticism regarding the fitness of this goal (solving this problem) as part of humanity's objective function, as well as pointing out inaccuracies in its formulation are very welcome._

    虽然目标和理念比项目和品牌更值得关注，但由于缺乏对目标和理念的参照和认同，人们往往团结在品牌、项目和公司之下，而不是目标之下，人类似乎没有一个系统的方法来定义和统一目标。
    
    与品牌不同，目标需要若干语句来解释，不如品牌好记。多数人都知道 "谷歌"，但不一定知道 "让世界的信息普遍可访问和有用"，大多数人都知道 "SpaceX"，但不知道 "让生命多行星化"，等等。
    
    由于缺乏一种简单的参照和团结在目标之下的手段，竞争不可避免，因为对于重要的目标，会产生多个创始项目和团体，但只有少数能在竞争中幸存下来。有人可能认为这很好，这就是市场优化世界的方式。但是，竞争公司往往不会提前分享其竞争优势。这未必是保持多样性的最佳方法。这是一个杀戮过程。该过程已经杀死了大量的、被认为没有存在价值的组织和生命形态。
    
    当进化过程中产生一种效率更高的变异复制者时，它往往会取代竞争者，将其逼向灭绝。

    进化过程有时会创造出新的复制者，从而占领整个世界。 但是，并非必须如此。实际上，当沟通良好时，进化过程会很高效。 例如，交流神经细胞会解决的那种优化问题，很可能需要多代人死亡的遗传算法才能实现。
    
    由此看来，如果我们可以使人们更容易地团结在目标之下，那么希望能够通过在目标和理念的层面上系统地共同思考，从而使我们能够达到自己的理想，而非将不必要的竞争加诸于个人和团体，实际上，这对全球安全构成了风险，因为第一家创造超级智能的公司可能是最后一家。
    
    非常欢迎关于如何帮助人们团结于目标和理念（与项目，品牌，公司相对）的想法。
    
    注：非常欢迎对这个目标（解决这个问题）作为人类目标函数的一部分是否合适提出批评，以及指出其表述的不准确之处。

        So, should we apply marketing techniques to sell targets? Each industry has represented some specific goals of humanity. If you match a cool brand for each industry, you should be able to change the status quo...
