Books Mentioned: Elephant in the Brain: Hidden Motives in Everyday Life (Robin Hanson) - https://amzn.to/3XIxztN The Age of Em: Work, Love, and Life when Robots Rule the Earth (Robin Hanson) - https://amzn.to/4pPBgd1 Was Wikipedia ever truly neutral? Co-founder Larry Sanger and economist Robin Hanson reveal the hidden story of Wikipedia’s explosive rise, its drift into ideological capture, and what really happened with Jimmy Wales, and why the world’s most-used “encyclopedia” now reflects a narrow GASP (Globalist-Academic-Secular-Progressive) worldview. In this inaugural episode of Proof of Thought, Larry Sanger (Wikipedia co-founder) and Robin Hanson (George Mason professor & prediction-market pioneer) discuss: How Wikipedia went from 0 to 20,000 articles in its first year The real reason the neutrality policy failed Jimmy Wales’ viral “it doesn’t matter” meltdown explained Why elite institutions (media, academia, Wikipedia) all suffer the same bias problem How administrative cliques and “wiki-lawyering” dampened the original collaborative spirit Radical fixes: prediction markets on article claims, competing articles, the Encyclosphere, AI-written encyclopedias, and decentralized rating networks If you’re tired of trusting a single source that claims to be “the sum of all human knowledge” while systematically excluding dissenting views, this conversation is a must-watch. Guests: Larry Sanger – Co-founder of Wikipedia, creator of the original Neutrality policy Robin Hanson – Economist, author of “The Elephant in the Brain,” pioneer of prediction markets Subscribe for deep dives into truth, bias, decentralization, and the future of knowledge. #WikipediaBias #LarrySanger #RobinHanson #JimmyWales #NeutralityPolicy #InstitutionalTrust #PredictionMarkets #Encyclosphere #InformationWars #ProofOfThought Timestamped Chapters 0:08 – Meet the Guests: Robin Hanson & Larry Sanger 1:02 – Jimmy Wales Viral Clip: “It’s a stupid question” (Co-founder Dispute) 2:40 – Larry & Robin React 5:18 – How Larry Sanger Actually Started Wikipedia (The Real Origin Story) 9:42 – Why Wikipedia Exploded So Fast in 2001 12:02 – The 6 Real Reasons Wikipedia Succeeded (Open Source + Secret Sauce) 15:51 – Larry Reveals: “I wrote the original Neutrality Policy” 19:29 – How the Neutrality Policy Worked… Until It Didn’t 23:42 – The Rise of Administrators, Bureaucrats & Hidden Power Structures 27:37 – How Wikipedia Became Ruled by Cliques and “Wiki-Lawyering” 30:06 – Why Organizations Decay: The Universal Pattern Wikipedia Follows 34:37 – When Do Rules Become Pathological? 36:21 – Could Prediction Markets Fix Wikipedia’s Bias Problem?
