Why
“For important negotiations we don’t send telegrams; we send ambassadors.” - Alan Kay
The problem with ambassadors is they only speak one language…typically French. But to travel between worlds, you need to have each of your bi-lingual legs in a different land. To negotiate across borders, you must be fluent in two languages, typically business and tech. You need a diplomat.
