Abstract

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Center for Collective Intelligence Director Professor Thomas W. Malone’s scholarship offers deep insights into the promise afforded by the synergies between human intelligence and technology. According to Professor Malone, the boundaries between human intellect and technological prowess are becoming increasingly blurred, but this may not be a bad thing for humankind. In Asian Management Insights’ inaugural Pulse Point interview, we get to learn more about the concept of ‘collective intelligence’, which explores how a partnership between humans and Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be catalysed to make ground-breaking advancements in addressing the wicked problems of our time. At the heart of his arguments is the idea of ‘superminds’—entities comprising individuals and computers—that can work together in intelligent ways to make this human-computer partnership possible. Professor Malone also introduces the use of the ‘Supermind Design’ methodology as a systemic approach to designing such collective intelligence systems.
