Utopia | Initial Ideas

Writer's picture: Xiaotian PengXiaotian Peng

Inspiration

I haven't come up with a name for Utopia yet. It's just my most initial idea. I was inspired by a sitcom The Good Place, the name of which actually means heaven, and most importantly how to get into it. This is also the theme of my utopia: your credit score.


A sitcom The Good Place

Background

The point system, people and people, countries and citizens, society, is full of points. Whether you want a credit card, or immigration, and so on. Without points, you can't even use Uber. these are necessary scores, but unnecessary scores are common: a good person does a bad thing and becomes a bad person; but a bad person does a good thing and is called a good person. (This applies to the credit system)

A subjective rating system undermines human social relations.


Theories

After the theoretical research, I analysed the credit system through these theories and cut can be used as a theoretical support.



Issues

To be precise, the problem is the credit system in the information age. This does not refer to a particular country or region, but to certain payment software or applications. You need to complete tasks to get credit score!


Score: 770

Type: record of compliance, behaviour, status, assets, connections.

Sesame Credit: uses big data, which is your behaviour, to build up a score.
Chinese law: if you do not pay your debts, do not keep your word, evade your debts and avoid enforcement.

Sesame Credit uses the pattern of someone's daily behaviour to determine whether that person is a "potential defaulter", which is contrary to legal guidelines.



Purpose

Creating an unrated utopia


I want a world without ratings, where everyone is an island and social relationships are re-established (an idea that is premature here). The ultimate goal is to create, through this world, a new perception of identity, not through ratings or data, but through equal exchange.
