Gamification is key to nudging collective behaviour | Kerstin Oberprieler | TEDxCanberra 

Fascinating how this talk can have been delivered apparently as few as four years ago, with zero reflection on the level of centralized control (and therefore tyranny) potentially enabled by her 3rd and 4th orders. The quanitity of private data tracked, measured, compared, graded and rewarded/punished. Imagine what identity theft and/or tampering would amount to in such a society. And her thesis is completely lacking in any consideration of this perspective. Dystopian. Truly scary.

I was nodding along at first ...MessMonster is cute and clever ...Adding fun and rewards, great ...Monitoring by the Chinese government of social media and shopping to decide who gets to progress in society. WTF? That's not fun, that's controlling and horrible. This talk has good intentions, and shows how nice ideas can unfortunately become bad if people aren't careful. Design with care.

I truly don't understand how she can mention the chinese social credit system without even a mite of criticism. What if a state provides a "game" that not only enables you to win but also to lose? What if you're not taking part voluntarily but under compulsion?

Thanks

Totally inspiring talk, loved it 😀👍🏽

For me, this is actually the scariest talk about gamification I've seen/heard.

Learning Social Capital by playing. Great!!! I am working that for 10 years. You have very clear ideas about this. We put in games that stage all this. Thanks a lot

Great!!

Should be part of Intro to Teaching 101

Gotta love the length of this video. 13.37 PogChamp

Love this

Imagine forth order gamification based on gratitude :-)

great surveillance game, Orwellian game

Interesting concept, what will be incentives? and what will stop cheating?

I love this talk, really! I sometimes lose focus because of her outfit so that reason i have to listen 3 times at all!

Re-imagining the Daily Grind a new, by taking it out of game grinding and putting it back into it's proper place. What's next creating a game where people act like ants in a mono-verbal collective....oh, wait.

Good lord she's caked up

That Talk made me want to comment mostly because of the Sesame Record she talked about of how your social presence affects your score . Basically Kerstin's talk speaks about creating change that could be very beneficial to a lot of areas in our lives as I have imagined some scenarios in my head during her talk , such as cities working together to eliminate criminals or banish them to keep their city's record higher , thus not having people ignore crimes that happen around them and actually care for each other a lot more, which I find very inspiring . However, her first part of the presentation to me felt too slow, although her opening was good she built it up too slow to keep me engaged and half-way through the video I was about to give it up (hopefully I didn't as the end was good) All in all it's a very interesting talk, although she could make it more interesting by tweaking her speech and thus reach people who can actually put those things into action but won't wait to the last 5 minutes of the talk to hear the great ideas in it .

Ah, the piano stairs! I remember those. My first thought was; could ye play a tune if ye pushed people down those stairs?

The only game you are creating is trans-humanist vs humans.

she got some cake frfr

Such thing would become a disaster in islamic countries and places with less tolerance or led by low intellectually advanced military or religious people! this would turn many more countries into a new north korea

The accent is like ramming a spork in my eye. I cannot do it.
