I honestly don’t really get why the “telos committee” is an overall good idea (though there may be some value in experimenting with that sort of thing)—intuitively, a large portion of extremely valuable projects are going to be boring, and the sort of thing that people are going to feel “burnt out” on a large portion of the time. Shutting down projects that don’t feel like saving the world probably doesn’t select well for projects that are maximilly effective. Might just be misunderstanding what you mean here, of course.
