"Collaborative Intelligence – Key for next generation AI systems"

1. Why Collaborate

Collaboration is a pervasive need of human civilization evolving towards higher and higher intelligence. It accounts for the ability to build, contribute to, and manage power found in networks of people. It enables powerful augmentation of systems to sustain and evolve. The entire history of natural evolution – for humans and non-humans, underlines the strong foundation of augmentation. This augmentation includes any natural or artificial system, from genomes, multicellular organisms, social insects, and human societies to the networks of sensors, computers, robots, and factories. Collaboration is one of the basic principles for sustainability and evolution of any organization of natural or artificial entities. Practically, collaboration is enabled through sharing information, resources, and responsibilities by distributed agents to jointly plan, implement, and analyse the activities required to achieve individual and common goals. Tangible benefits of collaboration is enhanced intelligence resulting in achieving something which is otherwise not possible for individuals, and/or with lesser efforts, and/or with lesser time, and/or with lesser cost, etc.
