As the context for how humans think and act together rapidly shifts from top-down hierarchies to peer-to-peer networks, and as our social leaders become more proficient in their understanding of how to build and lead networks, we will have the capacity to leverage the extraordinary amplitude and the incredible speed of collective intelligence to move us beyond the hazards of human bias.Learn more about your ad choices.

Work will continue to be an important dimension of day-to-day life, but its context could be radically different as new economic roles are created to allow us to be paid for our contributions to networked activity.
