对话式群体智能(CSI)增强群体审议

Conversational Swarm Intelligence (CSI) Enhances Groupwise Deliberation

Louis Rosenberg, Gregg Willcox, Hans Schumann, Ganesh Mani

AI总结:

本文提出对话式群体智能(CSI)技术,通过大语言模型实现小群实时对话与大群内容传播的结合,实验表明其能显著提升大规模群体审议的参与度、均衡性和用户满意度。

摘要:

实时对话式审议是一种关键的群体方法,用于做出决策、解决问题、评估优先级、生成想法和产生洞见。遗憾的是,实时对话难以扩展,当群体规模超过5到7名成员时,其有效性会下降。对话式群体智能(CSI)是一种以生物群体动力学为模型的新技术。它旨在使任意规模的网络化群体能够进行富有成效的实时审议,并收敛到统一的解决方案。CSI以一种独特而强大的方式利用大语言模型(LLMs)的能力,允许小型本地群体之间进行实时对话,同时实现内容在更大规模人群中的高效传播。通过这种方式,CSI结合了小规模审议推理和大规模集体智能的优势。在本研究中,我们将48人使用标准在线聊天的审议组与使用名为Thinkscape的基于聊天的CSI原型系统的同规模群体进行了比较。结果显示,使用CSI的参与者比使用标准聊天的参与者多贡献了51%的内容(p<0.001),并且使用CSI的审议在最活跃与最不活跃成员之间的贡献量差异减少了37%,表明对话更加均衡。最后,绝大多数参与者更倾向于使用CSI系统而非标准聊天进行审议(p<0.05),并报告在这样做时感到自己更有影响力(p<0.01)。这些结果表明,对话式群体智能是一种有前景的大规模审议使能技术。

英文摘要:

Real-time conversational deliberation is a critical groupwise method for reaching decisions, solving problems, evaluating priorities, generating ideas, and producing insights. Unfortunately, real-time conversations are difficult to scale, losing effectiveness as groups grow above 5 to 7 members. Conversational Swarm Intelligence (CSI) is a new technology modeled on the dynamics of biological swarms. It aims to enable networked groups of any size to hold productive real-time deliberations that converge on unified solutions. CSI leverages the power of Large Language Models (LLMs) in a unique and powerful way, allowing real-time dialog among small local groups while simultaneously enabling efficient content propagation across much larger populations. In this way, CSI combines the benefits of small-scale deliberative reasoning and large-scale collective intelligence. In this study, we compare deliberative groups of 48 people using standard online chat to the same sized groups using a prototype chat-based CSI system called Thinkscape. Results show that participants using CSI contributed 51% more content (p<0.001) than those using standard chat, and the deliberations using CSI showed 37% less difference in contribution quantity between the most active vs least active members, indicating more balanced dialog. And finally, a large majority of participants preferred deliberating using the CSI system over standard chat (p<0.05) and re-ported feeling more impactful when doing so (p<0.01). These results suggest that Conversational Swarm Intelligence is a promising technology for enabling large-scale deliberation.
