Conference Paper
We introduce Mindmix (also called hyperswarm ranking) a new collective intelligence technology based on the biological principle of Swarm Intelligence, and show that it enables networked human groups to collaboratively rank independent sets of items with significantly higher accuracy than traditional methods. While prior approaches, such as survey-...
Preprint

Conversational Swarm Intelligence (CSI) is a new method for enabling large human groups to hold real-time networked conversations using a technique modeled on the dynamics of biological swarms. Through the novel use of conversational agents powered by Large Language Models (LLMs), the CSI structure simultaneously enables local dialog among small de...
Conference Paper
The biological phenomenon of Swarm Intelligence (SI) enables social species to converge on group decisions by interacting in real-time systems. Studied in schools of fish, bee swarms, and bird flocks, biologists have shown for decades that SI can greatly amplify group intelligence in natural systems. Artificial Swarm Intelligence (ASI) is a compute...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
Artificial Swarm Intelligence (ASI) is a recently developed method that enables networked human groups to converge on more accurate group forecasts, estimations, and decisions. While ASI can significantly amplify collective intelligence, the process struggles when too large of a majority supports an inaccurate view, even if their average confidence...

Swarm Intelligence (SI) is a biological phenomenon that enables social species to reach group decisions by converging as real-time systems. Studied in fish schools, bird flocks, and bee swarms, SI has been shown to greatly amplify group intelligence. Artificial Swarm Intelligence (ASI) is recently developed method that enables networked human group...

Sales forecasts are critical to businesses of all sizes, enabling teams to project revenue, prioritize marketing, plan distribution, and scale inventory levels. Research shows, however, that sales forecasts of new products are highly inaccurate due to scarcity of historical data and weakness in subjective judgements required to compensate for lack...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
Many social species amplify their decision-making accuracy by deliberating in real-time closed-loop systems. Known as Swarm Intelligence (SI), this natural process has been studied extensively in schools of fish, flocks of birds, and swarms of bees. The present research looks at human groups and tests their ability to make financial forecasts by wo...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
Artificial Swarm Intelligence (ASI) is a hybrid AI technology that enables distributed human groups to "think together" in real-time systems modeled on natural swarms. Prior research has shown that by forming "human swarms," networked groups can substantially amplify their combined intelligence and produce significantly more accurate forecasts than...

Abstract. Sales forecasts are critical to businesses of all sizes, enabling teams to project revenue, prioritize marketing, plan distribution, and scale inventory levels. Research shows, however, that sales forecasts of new products are highly inaccurate due to scarcity of historical data and weakness in subjective judgments required to compensate...
