![]() Monitor Projects. The fail fast approach results in several projects that are taken through the life cycle with varied degrees of progress. What can O2S2 do if it is fed all the data about what goes on in the Open Source community? These devices are being programmed through iterative modeling techniques and fed large amounts of data using which they determine steps they need to execute with timely, corrective actions. ![]() This is how the Open Source community has emerged over the last few decades as a live, passionate, thriving ecosystem that continues to churn out next-generation paradigms and technologies.Īrtificial Intelligence has emerged as a technique where computers can process and churn incredibly large volumes of data and come out with insight that could be applied in real life–whether it be to empower the connected automobile or to perform cardiac surgery etc. Have multiple groups interact with each other and the result is an exponential rather than being just a multiplier. Add more people and you have the innovation potential taken to the next level with groups of potential innovators – where the innovation happens not because of one individual but because of the group dynamics. Interactions with another individual takes innovation to a whole new level – it is a potential multiplier because the types of thoughts and ideas that someone else brings can be radically different from the ones we originate. At an individual level, this happens through intersections of our own thoughts from varied perspectives when it is applied to a real-life problem scenario. Even so, I like the connection to another robot some of us could relate to a few decades back-call it childhood fascination! Thus, O2S2! Per Malone’s assertion, robots no longer have a human shape but are just lines of software code that execute built into everyday devices and gadgets working their magic behind the scenes. O2S2 is an artificially intelligent entrant into the Open Source community. Can this concept of the “Supermind” be applied to Open Source? Taking a cue from Malone’s idealistic enterprise-“Alberts”, join me as I inject a new member into the Open Source community- O2S2. I continue to read this page-turner and within a few pages, Malone references Wikipedia and Open Source software as highly de-centralized online groups that are much more prominent - just as he had predicted in his Future of Work book published in 2004. This got me thinking. I am reading Superminds - the The Surprising Power of People and Computers Thinking Together by Thomas W Malone-a book which calls out various facets of injecting Artificial Intelligence into thriving ecosystems of humans working together to augment the collective intelligence of these groups as a whole. Malone takes us through a journey into a world that brings to bear collaborative technologies and machine learning to aim for the perfect enterprise - An enterprise that can be ideally positioned to formulate and execute the most effective strategy to be successful. Respecting one of the “super brains” in the recent past, Malone calls this enterprise “Alberts”. ![]()
