An augmented collective intelligence and deliberation framework in response to climate change
Bulent Ozel, Fang-jui Chang (Lucidminds AI / Dark Matter Labs)
Abstract: Responding to the climate crisis requires radical changes to our lifestyles and how we perceive agency and decision-making. We may need to expand our perspectives by considering non-human life forms and other actors in our ecosystems, such as bacteria, animals, rivers, and forests, as a way to increase our awareness of their needs and rights. In other words, in response to the climate crisis we could extend our deliberation process by combining natural, human and machine subsystems, each consisting of a diverse set of individual agents. But how?
In this talk, we will present an augmented collective intelligence (ACI) framework that shows how the interaction between human intelligence (HI) and artificial intelligence (AI) can be expanded to include such non-human actors within our deliberation processes.
