Are Hive Minds Efficient?
By Jesse Lociel
ENG 2420
5/22/17
WHat is a hive mind?
A unified consciousness or intelligence formed by a number
of individuals.
The consciousness usually exerts control over those that
inhabit it, but isn’t always the case
Can be very similar to a totalitarian state in some cases
There is an end goal that is desired
Dystopian Societies (1984)
The Party rules over the inhabitants
Focused on removing independent thought
Undercover police
One big copy and paste
Consequences for those who rebel
Groupthink
Flood
A living network of vast intelligence
All knowledge obtained through the hosts can be shared with
the entire group on command
Closely resembles a "utopian socialist ideal as there is no
wealth, no poverty, no want, no crime, and no disease”
Every individual strives for the advancement of the Flood
as a whole.
Internet
Information is stored virtually for the use of anyone that
wants it and can be accessed whenever
People can collaborate with one another at any given moment
Connects people and allows them to communicate regardless
of the distance
Bee colony
Ruled by the Queen Bee
Are given tasks to accomplish for the survival of the hive
They are subservient
Thomas Seeley (Superorganism)
