Description
The Handbook of Collective Intelligence explores how groups of individuals can act collectively in ways that seem intelligent. This multidisciplinary field studies intelligence not just in individual brains, but also in groups of people and computers working together. Recent years have seen the emergence of new forms of collective intelligence, with interconnected groups tackling tasks such as software development and election prediction. The book reports on the latest research in this area, covering a range of disciplines including computer science, biology, economics, and psychology. Leading researchers from these fields contribute essays that describe their work on collective intelligence, laying the foundation for a new multidisciplinary field.
