Tech Talent Now?
How much tech talent and experience is becoming available to the global marketplace right now and how much good could they do if they used their special set of skills to work together?

Is there really any specific "one size fits all" problem to even utilize the skills?
Climate is different everywhere. The color palette in different regions are more than just latitude. Dry, wet, hot, cold.... It depends.
Cultures are different. I doubt the same page exists for many cultures. "Been there, done that" is a loaded philosophy in the 21st century.
Customs are different everywhere. Kinda makes you want to high-five everybody in the middle east with your left hand and give a thumbs up to every aussie you meet.
Lifestyle is different. Just using longevity as an example is what makes mediterranean diets and certain asian lifestyles unique among a crowd.
Perspective is usually a combination of each, so "one size fits all" is usually a watered down concept.
With the age of compute in full swing, the fabricated numbers from decades prior lets you know some generations do it differently as well.

If you can figure out how to coordinate their activities then probably a whole lot but this is a very hard problem. Just knowing how to write code or design web sites is the easy part. The hard part is picking a tractable problem and then getting enough people interested and motivated to work collectively towards a potential solution.
Presumably cryptocurrency protocols are designed for precisely this purpose but I'm not aware of anyone that is using code to coordinate groups of people towards some objective other than accumulating as many points as possible in some imaginary economic game. So if there was a distributed protocol that was designed to align people on developing cancer therapies then that would be a legitimate and useful application of distributed consensus protocols.
