#ATProto is giving Major Evolutionary Transition vibes: "(1) a new form of cooperation with almost total interdependence among individuals ... that creates a new functional entity, and (2) a ... new form of communication to support this cooperation." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Major_Transitions_in…

I'm convinced that open social protocols like #atproto have a crucial role to play in the future of science. Excited to share MOSAIC - our best effort at articulating the thesis, why it matters, and how to build and fund it (in collab w/ @exgenesis.ingroup.social ) 🧵
