Abstract

The wisdom society is the latest iteration of the idea of collective intelligence, which has accelerated due to social media and other online collaborative tools.

Benefits and issues related to collective intelligence are detailed, and conditions for optimum collective intelligence, including its transformation through virtual environments, are explained. Individual and group dynamics, and group models are also discussed in terms of their impact on collective intelligence in virtual environments.
