The bottleneck is not building software, it is more like “governments are old gray organizations that don’t want to change anything”.
If you find any place where the actual software development is the bottleneck, I’d be very happy to hear and maybe take part in it. I also expect many other EA developers to want to take part, it sounds like a good project
(For context, I was the Chief Data Officer of the California State Government and CTO of Newark, NJ when Cory Booker was Mayor).
I actually think the way to do this is to partner with one city and build everything they need to run the city. The problem is that people can’t use piecemeal systems very well. It would just take a huge initial set of capital—like exactly the type of capital that could be provided here.
Sounds like a really interesting suggestion. Especially if it would be for a city that “matters” (that will help people do important things?), I think this project could interest me and others
Hey, this is somewhat my domain.

Ah ok forget about it being somewhat my domain :P
