The Hive Mind

by Chris Gilbey at 08:35AM (EST) on October 30, 2005 | Permanent Link | Cosmos

Are we moving rapidly towards what at one point in time Sci-Fi writers called The Hive Mind? I recall reading about this in the 70's but not who wrote about it.

As we move to this global community of people talking to each other on line, sharing ideas, influencing peers, shaping the thoughts of their neighbors and friends, I marvel at the accelerative impact of our communications environment.

Perceptric Forum

According to Wikipedia a perceptron is a type of artificial neural network.

Ergo a “Perceptric” is a person who creates or uses a neural network.

The Perceptric Blog is where Chris Gilbey posts thoughts, ideas, and links intended to stimulate thought and accelerate the transfer of ideas.

Chris is available for consulting work with the premise that it is not technologies that are disruptive so much as the people that use them.

The Perceptric mission is to help companies and people reach their goals and exceed their expectations. This will often mean offering counterintuitive conclusions.

Our view? The shortest distance between two points is not necessarily a straight line. It's the number of people needed to be present in a human network to influence and deliver positive decision making.
