Could the secret to advanced AI lie in the movement of fish?

What intelligent machines can learn from a school of fish | Radhika Nagpal · 10:52 · Video: TED · Watch at the source

In short: Instead of replicating human thought, robotics engineer Radhika Nagpal explores how we might build artificial intelligence by modeling the collective intelligence found in nature.

In this talk, Radhika Nagpal examines the 'rules of engagement' used by schools of fish and insect colonies. By studying these natural patterns, she presents her work on creating artificial collective power.

Nagpal previews a future where robotic swarms collaborate on large-scale tasks, such as monitoring coral reefs, pollinating crops, building flood barriers, and forming satellite constellations.
