Defining and Quantifying an Exponential Increase in General Problem-Solving Ability Within Groups

Abstract

The concept of collective super-intelligence has been described by various authors in the field of collective intelligence, some of whom have estimated the qualitative properties of a collective super-intelligence and have attempted to determine the types of problems that a collective super-intelligence might excel at. This work departs from those opinions in leveraging a Human-Centric Functional Modeling approach able to represent the behaviour of complex human-observable systems like individual or collective cognition. With this approach, for the first time models have been developed that allow the impacts of collective intelligence to potentially be predicted or even simulated with far greater accuracy and understood more reliably. This article explores how a collective super-intelligence might be defined and quantified in terms of the general collective intelligence factor (c), and also explores how such a collective super-intelligence might be expected to differentiate itself from current forms of collective intelligence.
