'''Envisioning Politics 2.0: How AIs, cyborgs, and transhumanism can enhance democracy and improve society''' is a book edited by [[David Wood]] and [[Alexander Karran]].

<blockquote>"Politics 1.0 has taken us a long way. But the multidimensional, intersecting nature of present-day issues and opportunities requires a new calibre of politics. Anticipating that new calibre of politics is the central purpose of the think tank [[Transpolitica]] which has published this volume.

The essays in this book provide visions of what Politics 2.0 might look like. They express the thoughts, hopes, and fears from a diverse mix of futurists, political thinkers, academics, and think-tank members. They explore various ways in which new technology might enable improved politics (analogous to the way in which technology enabled the emergence of a collaborative "Web 2.0" with community intelligence, superseding the top-down "Web 1.0"):

* Relevant expert knowledge being quickly brought to vexed questions of subsidies, regulations, standards, and so on – rather than politicians being out of their depths
* Automated fact-checking taking place in real-time, rather than mistakes and errant claims being allowed to influence political discussion for too long
* Humans improving their own cognitive skills, as part of a process we can call cyborgization
* External artificial intelligence augmenting the decision-making capabilities of humans
* The insights of the transhumanist movement, which boldly upholds the possibility of a profound social transformation alongside human physical and mental enhancements."</blockquote>

"Without better political processes, all our hopes for technology improving the world are at high risk. Collabtech – technology for better collaboration – is, therefore, probably the most important technology of all to get right."<ref>https://youtu.be/0fTC644nWuU</ref>
