Episode description
I talked to Ben Reinhardt about new models for funding science and innovation. Ben's pieces on DARPA and his proposal for a private DARPA-like research funding organization are foundational pieces in the field and should be read by anyone who wants to understand them. We talked about:
- The Big Man Theory of History
- What makes good DARPA program managers?
- Why you need to be less responsible to innovate
- Does science have an introspection problem?
- Will the US maintain its leading position in science
Highly recommended!
