Swarm intelligence is the collective behavior of decentralized, self-organized systems, whether natural or artificial. It is used in artificial intelligence research. A swarm of robots could work similarly to an ant colony, with each following simple rules leading to self-organization and task completion without direct communication. Researchers have used swarms of simple robots to spell words and play piano through position-based algorithms. Swarm intelligence is also applied to fields like robotics, staff scheduling, and entertainment.

2. SWARM INTELLIGENCE
• Swarm intelligence (SI) is the collective behavior of
decentralized, self-organized systems, natural or artificial. The
concept is employed in work on Artificial intelligence.
• The expression was introduced by Gerardo Beni and Jing
Wang in 1989, in the context of cellular robotic systems.

3. SWARM ROBOTICS
• A swarm of robots would work on the same principles as an ant colony: each member has a
simple set of rules to follow, leading to self-organization and self-sufficiency.
• For example, researchers at Georgia Robotics and Intelligent Systems (GRITS) created a
small swarm of simple robots that can spell and play piano. The robots cannot communicate,
but based solely on the position of surrounding robots, they are able to use their specially-
created algorithm to determine the optimal path to complete their task.
• NASA also plans on deploying swarms of tiny spacecraft for space exploration, and the
medical community is looking into using swarms of nanobots for precision delivery of drugs,
microsurgery, targeting toxins, and biological sensors.

4. BLOCK CHAIN
• Communities based on Block chains
• People will increasingly like Bitcoin, Ethereum and Lite
coin are increasingly using Bitcoin
• Predictive Analytics using Swarm Intelligence –
Software to input their opinion in real time
