How AI can augment collective intelligence ?

Pierre Lévy's conference will be preceded by protocol speeches (see details below).

Collective intelligence organization through a shared environment (stigmergic communication) has been practiced by social animals and humans for a long time. But this type of collective intelligence takes on a new dimension when digital memory is used to train neural models and when symbolic production (texts, images, music, code...) is being automated. The goal of the conference is to show how a new form of digital communication using generative AI (neural AI) coupled with knowledge bases (symbolic AI) can increase the collective intelligence of human communities.

The speeches preceding the conference are as follows:

• Speech by Caroline Roy, Chair of the Board of Directors of Printemps numérique
• Speech by a representative from the Brussels delegation
• Speech by a representative from the Wallonia delegation
• Speech by Mehdi Benboubakeur, Executive Director of Printemps numérique regarding the Joint Declaration with Nantes.
• Recorded message from Mr. Franckie Trichet, Vice-President of Nantes Métropole in charge of innovation and digital affairs
• Speech by Mrs. Magda Popeanu, member of the executive committee of the City of Montreal, responsible for organizational performance
• Speech by the Minister of the Government of Quebec.
