Explore the concept of sense-making and its role in collective intelligence through this thought-provoking lecture by David Spivak of the Topos Institute. Delve into the idea of mathematical fields as accounting systems and how they can be applied to understand and articulate the phenomenon of intelligence. Discover how systems mathematics, particularly category theory, provides a framework for comprehending collective sense-making. Examine the process of compressing overwhelming data into shareable abstractions that enable successful interactions with the world. Investigate topics such as interaction patterns, interacting dynamical systems, governance, accountability, and the implications for addressing global challenges like the sixth great extinction. Gain insights into the mathematical foundations of intelligibility and their potential applications in various domains.
