Intelligenza collettiva nell'era delle Reti, del Web e dei Media Sociali.   Human beings are not meant to make perfect decisions. We are usually less informed than we would like. We are not very good at predicting the future. Many of us lack the ability and willingness to engage in sophisticated calculations to evaluate costs and benefits. Instead of insisting on the best possible decision, we often make one that just feels good enough to us. And we generally let emotions influence our judgment. But despite all these flaws, when our imperfect judgment skills come together in the right way, our collective intelligence can be exceptional. When what is produced is not the fruit of a single mind, but of a thinking set of collaborating heads, we speak of "collective intelligence". The ideas, passing from one intelligence to another, are colored with different meanings, passions, values. All knowledge can therefore be rethought in the perspective of a communication that is also...

{La condivisione della conoscenza prima dell'era 2.0}   Before the advent of the web and the invention of social media, that is the so-called 2.0 technology, the possibility that people had to interact, to compare and collaborate was conditioned to sharing the same physical space or to the use of media conventional communication, such as telephone or post.   {Prima dell'avvento del web e dell'invenzione dei media di tipo sociale, ossia la cosiddetta tecnologia 2.0, la possibilità che le persone avevano per interagire, per confrontarsi e collaborare era condizionata alla condivisione dello stesso spazio fisico oppure all’utilizzo dei mezzi di comunicazione convenzionali, come per esempio il telefono oppure la posta}    It is easy to understand that the possibility of expressing one's opinions, of obtaining answers to one's questions, and of finding people who shared the same ideas and passions, was very low, especially if we compare these possibilities to those of to...

{Intelligenza dello sciame}   Swarm intelligence takes into consideration the study of self-organized systems, in which a complex action derives from a  collective   intelligence , as happens in nature in the case of  colonies  of insects or  flocks  of birds, or  schools  of fish, or  herds  of mammals.   {La swarm intelligence, traducibile come: intelligenza dello sciame, prende in considerazione lo studio dei sistemi auto-organizzati, nei quali un'azione complessa deriva da un' intelligenza   collettiva , come accade in natura nel caso di  colonie  di insetti o  stormi  di uccelli, oppure  branchi  di pesci, o  mandrie  di mammiferi}   Swarm intelligence can be defined as the property of those systems in which the collective behavior of (unsophisticated) agents interacting locally with the environment produces the emergence of a more complex global functionality in the s...
