Importance: 42/100homepage

Summary

The MIT Center for Collective Intelligence researches how groups of people and computers can be organized to act more intelligently than individuals alone. CCI explores collective problem-solving, collaborative decision-making, and the design of systems that harness distributed human and machine intelligence. Their work is relevant to AI governance, coordination problems, and mitigating risks from disinformation and influence operations.

Key Points

  • Investigates how humans and AI systems can collectively solve complex problems beyond individual capabilities
  • Develops frameworks for collective decision-making relevant to AI governance and international coordination
  • Researches disinformation and influence operations as collective intelligence threats
  • Applies game-theoretic insights to multi-stakeholder coordination challenges
  • Bridges social science, computer science, and organizational theory to address large-scale coordination failures

 The MIT Center for Collective Intelligence explores how people and computers can be connected so that
—collectively—
they act more intelligently than any person, group, or computer has ever done before.

 SUPERMIND DESIGN 

 Our world is filled with complex systems of people and machines that we humans have designed: from companies and governments to economies and societies. And as technologies and human desires change, the configurations of these systems often need to change, too. Supermind Design is an approach that emphasizes generating innovative new possibilities for how to configure these systems.
