Is collective intelligence greater than individual intelligence? — Benj96
Therefore, there is scope to believe a superhuman intelligence may know what's better for us than any of us do individually. — Benj96
If AI has a grasp on ethics and morality (which I believe it does as it has been trained on all the Law and philosophical books/texts we have available to us thus far) then perhaps whatever it deems ethically fit based on those texts will surpass any notion of morality we have previous conceived of as individuals. — Benj96
Even the most intelligent human is probably no match for the intelligence that can be compiled/condensed from the entirety of human experience and data. — Benj96
However I believe the same is true of morality. The collective moral idealogy is likely better than any individuals concept of the moral ideal. — Benj96

That is a simple, logical concept of which any AI could calculate the logistics in any given situation and for which any AI could write the code.This may be great news. It may provide answers or directives that enshrine the "least harm" going forward. — Benj96
That's not collective intelligence; that's stored information or archived knowledge.
We do not currently have the technology to compile or compress intelligence.. — Vera Mont
I sincerely doubt this. Human collectives have over time proven to be prone to deception, delusion, prejudice and incitement, to run away with all kinds of unfounded and unsound beliefs, to persecute one another over trivia in the name of a moral imperative, to wage genocidal wars over a minute variance in moral precepts. A lone decent man is far more likely to behave morally than a righteous mob. — Vera Mont
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.
