Collective Intelligence
• Human intelligence is the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills
• Collective intelligence is the ability of a network of people to acquire and apply knowledge and skills at a rate that far exceeds that of the individual
• Micro-foundation of collective human intelligence is the tacit-explicit dialogue:
Tacit-Explicit Dialogues = 2N – N – 1
