SUMMARY:Hive Minds: Collective Intelligence in Humans and Other Animals (the Forum)
DESCRIPTION:Swarms of bees make decisions as a "democratic" collective\, voting on various possible nest sites through waggle dances. Does this phenomenon amount to a form of "collective intelligence"? Do we also find collective intelligence in humans? And what might humans be able to learn from bees about the best ways to act together and to make collective decisions? Philosopher Christian List\, social insect biologist Elli Leadbeater\, and evolutionary theorist Larissa Conradt consider the nature of collective intelligence in bees\, humans\, and other animals.\n\nSpeakers\nLarissa Conradt\, Affiliated Researcher\, Center for Adaptive Rationality\, Max Planck Institute for Human Development\nElli Leadbeater\, Reader in Biology\, Royal Holloway\, University of London\nChristian List\, Professor of Political Science and Philosophy\, LSE\n\nChair\nJonathan Birch\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Philosophy\, Logic and Scientific Method (LSE) and Forum for European Philosophy Fellow\n\n \n\n#LSEFEP
