Welcome to @jasoncrawford.eth! Jason is the founder of The Roots of Progress, a non-profit dedicated to progress studies. In addition, he has served as an advisor for Our World in Data and as a guest lecturer at MIT. His essay, We Need A New Philosophy of Progress, is one of the best arguments for techno-optimism that I've read: https://rootsofprogress.org/we-need-a-new-philosophy-of-progress/ He has agreed to do an AMA for the /books channel as part of the ongoing Silicon Valley Canon course. Reply with your questions. :)

We launched our fellowship program, we are about to host our first annual progress conference, and I'm partway through writing a book on my philosophy of progress, The Techno-Humanist Manifesto If you mean “how have we grown the world economy?”, too early for that, but I have inspired at least one nuclear founder!
