In vivid detail, Bak-Coleman et al. (1) describe explosively multiplicative global pathologies of scale posing existential risk to humanity. They argue that the study of collective behavior in the age of digital social media must rise to a “crisis discipline” dedicated to averting global ruin through the adaptive manipulation of social dynamics and the emergent phenomenon of collective behavior. Their proposed remedy is a massive global, multidisciplinary coalition of scientific experts to discover how the “dispersed networks” of digital media can be expertly manipulated through “urgent, evidence-based research” to “steward” social dynamics into “rapid and effective collective behavioral responses,” analogous to “providing regulators with information” to guide the …

生动的细节，Bak-Coleman 等人。( 1 ) 描述对人类构成生存风险的规模爆炸性倍增的全球病态。他们认为，对数字社交媒体时代集体行为的研究必须上升为一门“危机学科”，致力于通过对社会动态的适应性操纵和集体行为的涌现现象来避免全球毁灭。他们提议的补救措施是建立一个庞大的全球、多学科的科学专家联盟，以发现如何通过“紧急的、基于证据的研究”来熟练地操纵数字媒体的“分散网络”，从而将社会动态“管理”为“快速有效的集体行为”响应”，类似于“向监管机构提供信息”以指导……
