Описание: From the founding director of the MIT Center for Collective Intelligence comes a fascinating look at the remarkable capacity for intelligence exhibited by groups of people and computers working together. If you're like most people, you probably believe that humans are the most intelligent animals on our planet. But there's another kind of entity that can be far smarter: groups of people. In this groundbreaking book, Thomas Malone, the founding director of the MIT Center for Collective Intelligence, shows how groups of people working together in superminds -- like hierarchies, markets, democracies, and communities -- have been responsible for almost all human achievements in business, government, science, and beyond. And these collectively intelligent human groups are about to get much smarter. Using dozens of striking examples and case studies, Malone shows how computers can help create more intelligent superminds simply by connecting humans to one another in a variety of rich, new ways. And although it will probably happen more gradually than many people expect, artificially intelligent computers will amplify the power of these superminds by doing increasingly complex kinds of thinking. Together, these changes will have far-reaching implications for everything from the way we buy groceries and plan business strategies to how we respond to climate change, and even for democracy itself. By understanding how these collectively intelligent groups work, we can learn how to harness their genius to achieve our human goals. Drawing on cutting-edge science and insights from a remarkable range of disciplines, Superminds articulates a bold -- and utterly fascinating -- picture of the future that will change the ways you work and live, both with other people and with computers.

Описание: When a cultural historian writes a memoir it is likely to be interesting. When that person is William Irwin Thompson, author of numerous book and articles including the best selling At the Edge of History, it is guaranteed to be both intriguing and thought provoking. From 1972 and for 40 years thereafter Dr. Thompson brought together a who's who of leading scientists, avant-garde artists, forward looking philosophers, environmental architects, spiritual innovators and other top-notch thinkers into a free-wheeling dialog. This he called the Lindisfarne Association and with his tireless energy, cool wit, loving heart, and multi-tasking mind he fashioned a vessel aimed at seeding and cross fertilizing a new culture. History will record the impact of his work. With this 260 page book you can bear witness to these events through numerous photos and participate in the goals of this unique endeavor.
