Group intelligence refers to a process by which large numbers of people simultaneously converge upon the same point(s) of knowledge.
Social psychologists study group intelligence and related topics such as decentralized decision making and group wisdom, using demographic information to study the ramifications for long-term social change. Marketing and behavioral finance experts use similar research to forecast consumer behavior (e.g. buying patterns) for corporate strategic purposes.
