W6 : How important are contributions of a single individual in the sea of "collective intelligence"? / 박소민(SOMIN PARK)

 1. Summary

Very important! If individuals are not gathered, there is no "group" in the first place. Each individual contribution brings together a mass of information and becomes a collective intelligence. If a person has a wrong idea or knowledge, his contribution is also important. This is because even wrong information can be shared and corrected.

2. Interesting point

I remember an example of success thanks to collective intelligence: Pixar

Steve Jobs bought Pixar in 1986 for $5 million but he sold back to Disney for $7.5 billion in 2006. Pixar has grown their value through co-creation, or collective intelligence, since its acquisition. People who were ordinary gathered together to create synergy.

3. Discussion point

What is the standard for calling collective intelligence? Is it also collective intelligence that just two to four people come together to solve the problem?

Comments

  1. I think diversity is necessary to achieve collective intelligence. Therefore, it is unreasonable to call a few people collectively intelligence. Therefore, it is unreasonable to call a few people collectively intelligent. So, Collective Intelligence needs many people.
