Reminds me of the psychology behind crowdmatching a la Snowdrift.coop. If no one else is working on the problem I also don’t feel inclined to; it doesn’t seem worth it because the chance of success is low. But if I know that other people are in it with me I’m suddenly motivated because I can expect my contributions to help actually solve the problem.
