1.7.1.3: Key Research
[Focus on] key areas of research. Other Information:
Some research questions include: What is the nature of this collective intelligence? Can we build computational models of
political discourse to better understand each other’s point of view and resolve disputes? Can a distributed collection of
machines and people learn to collect data, analyze them, and ask good research questions, ultimately changing the way science
is conducted? How do we best understand the human capabilities that outperform computers and then harness those assets in
new humancomputer partnerships? How are value systems (i.e., cultural, ethical, legal, etc.) embedded in algorithms and collective
enterprises and how should they be evaluated? What new design techniques and methods would result in a broad array of behaviors
and achievements that could effectively address current social issues (e.g., emergency response)? How can human needs and
values be strengthened through socially intelligent systems? What new theories could explain the behaviors of these complex,
dynamic systems?
