The BestWorld Project Purpose & Goals
BestWorld is working to reimagine both traditional and social media-based news.
You can become a part of this project as one of the first BestWorld citizen journalists reporting what’s now and, more importantly, what comes next.
No matter where or when big news breaks, you’ll be armed with a bleeding-edge artificial intelligence (AI) platform that will find and translate local news and social media to give you a handle on who are3 the eye witnesses. You’ll collaborate with our human/AI forecasting system to analyze and predict how your breaking news story might unfold over the coming days, weeks, even years.
The BestWorld team is already experimenting with this concept on a small and partial scale at INFER. Join us there to get a glimpse of what’s next–and a chance to win prize money.
We also are about to launch a test of this system. Details here.
BestWorld’s Mission
The internet has been a powerful tool for the dissemination and democratization of knowledge. But opening the door to the free spread of vital information opens the door to misinformation. BestWorld empowers people to find, process, and share trustworthy, fact-based information. As part of this, we give you access to advanced AI, our team of highly accurate forecasters, and more.
Armed with these tools, you’ll become a bonafide citizen journalist, able to not only report on world events but also predict what comes next–often with great accuracy. The result: a fact-based source of news and information for what pessimists are calling the post-fact era.
We invite you to learn about BestWorld, our team, and why we believe in what we’re doing.
ABOUT BESTWORLD
BestWorld Combines High Quality Human Forecasters and AI
to Revolutionize the Post-Digital Age
BestWorld Combines some of the world’s top forecasters, AI, and, if you choose, you! to revolutionize the post-digital age.
You’ve probably met people who usually can tell the future with surprising accuracy. Perhaps you are one of these – or soon will be. Successful forecasters consider a situation, examine the factors that led up to it…often sleep on it…and then say how they think the situation will turn out. We aren’t always successful. Sometimes even the most famed forecasters miss. However, usually, we’re pretty close. And many times, we’re right on the money. Our team combines the foresight of some of the best forecasters in the world, with the world’s most accurate AI technology. Our team also includes researchers positioned at the intersection of computer science, sociology, and the media gives us the edge to make it all happen..
