The Society of Problem Solvers substack

This is the key to everything. We can turn a million people into one wise, creative, and powerful brain. Decentralize all systems on Earth – governments, businesses, and more – with swarm intelligence

COLLECTIVE INTELLIGENCE – Sometimes referred to as “The Wisdom of Crowds,” or “Human Swarm Intelligence,” or just “swarming.” It is the shared group intelligence that emerges from the collaboration and combined efforts of individuals. It is real and testable. It usually requires several conditions to optimize: 1) Decentralization 2) Diversity of Opinion – aka individualism 3) Coordination/Alignment/signal (How do the individuals interact, what problem are they solving together, and do they understand the problem?) 4) Aggregation – a way to aggregate answers from the group, often technological 5) Trust – in both the system and earned trust with each of the people in the swarm

SWARM – a decentralized group of individuals who collaborate or coordinate their actions in a collective manner, often facilitated by technology, who are on the same problem solving mission together.
