발표 주제 The Singularity will not be Singular: Complexity or Collapse in AI & Collective Intelligence
개요 I develop the idea that intelligence is not as a monolithic quantity, but a plural, social transition―a combinatorial complexification of billions of humans and non-biological agents. As large AI models increasingly built by other large models, we see the automatic emergence of recursive complexity. Frontier reasoning models, tuned by reinforcement learning, succeed not by “thinking longer”; but by simulating internal “societies of thought”―recursive debates among distinct cognitive perspectives and personalities that causally drive reasoning accuracy. This reflects the wisdom of human crowds in science and society, which succeed as a function of distinct perspectives on complex problems. I also show that when perspective complexity is suppressed within machines, humans, or human-machine systems, performance across a range of challenges collapses. I propose the importance of evolving complex social institutions that facilitate the continuous evolution of relevant diversity to facilitate AI-human intelligence explosion.
