  • In a recent conversation with Peter Gloor at MIT, we talk about swarm creativity, COINs, AI and a collective human-AI future.

The article by Vibhas Ratanjee for Forbes, published on February 4, 2025, explores the concept of collective intelligence inspired by ant colonies and its potential applications in artificial intelligence (AI) to foster a collaborative future. It discusses how ants, despite their simple individual behaviors, achieve complex tasks through collective decision-making and problem-solving, known as the "hive mind." This natural phenomenon is being studied to enhance AI systems, aiming to replicate the efficiency and adaptability of ant colonies in human-designed networks. The piece highlights ongoing research and projects where AI is being developed to mimic these biological systems, potentially leading to advancements in areas like traffic management, logistics, and even social organization. The article suggests that by understanding and harnessing this collective intelligence, AI could evolve to better support human endeavors, promoting a synergy between technology and biological systems for a more interconnected and efficient future.
