The irony of group decision-making is that multiplying participants yields benefit only when their misjudgments remain independent. A collective outperforms any individual member not because each person is correct, but because their errors diverge; autonomy and variety allow random fluctuations to neutralize one another while the underlying pattern persists. Institutions that celebrate "collaborative intelligence," however, frequently undermine it through their very structure. They display preliminary results, solicit public votes, or conduct reviews where less experienced members detect the "acceptable" position from subtle cues given by veterans. Diversity shrinks, certainty grows, and accuracy declines. In contrast, mechanisms that gather assessments prior to mutual exposure—anonymous forms with timestamps, shuffled presentation sequences, private ballots—maintain distinct perspectives long enough for a synthesis method that resists conformity pressure. Adjusting influence based on prior accuracy further refines outcomes without excluding unconventional views.Critically, the goal is not to prohibit exchange indefinitely, but to delay it until the data has been collected independently. When interaction comes first, the assembly absorbs identical information repeatedly; when collection comes first, the assembly absorbs varied information simultaneously. From this angle, "collective intelligence" stems less from sheer numbers than from procedural architecture. It relies on systems that preserve autonomy at the point of input, so that ________________.
