Collective intelligence

Abstract

While people have talked about collective intelligence for decades, new communication technologies - especially the Internet - now allow huge numbers of people all over the planet to work together in new ways. The recent successes of systems like Google and Wikipedia suggest that the time is now ripe for many more such systems, and this talk will examine ways to take advantage of these possibilities. Using examples from business, government, and other areas, the talk will address the fundamental question: How can people and computers be connected so that - collectively - they act more intelligently than any individuals, groups, or computers have ever done before?
