Talia, Nathan and Peter attend the SOCiALS Workshop

This week, Talia, Nathan and Peter attended the first SOCiALS Workshop.

The SOCiALS workshops explore questions of self-governance, collective intelligence, and sustainability of social structures through an algorithmic perspective toward organizational design. This includes the study of electronic institutions, the self-organizing processes behind well-functioning hybrid societies, and the emergence of social order and organizations using computational principles. The contributions go beyond the models of such systems; they target the development of an understanding of the fundamental information and information processing that underpins these social structures.

The workshop was highly interdisciplinary, featuring Drs. Isabel Pedersen, Tanner Mirrlees, and Jeremy Pitt, together exploring what it means to communicate in a multi-agentic present and future.

The SOCiALS workshop was hosted at Ontario Tech and the downtown Toronto Jolera offices, thank you to Jolera for the support.
