چکیده انگلیسی
The origin of intelligence has fascinated scientists for a long time. Over the past 100 years, many scholars have observed the connection between entropy and intelligence. In the present study, we investigated a potential origin of the swarm intelligence in humans. The present study shows that a competitive economy consisting of a large number of self-interested agents can be mapped to a Boltzmann-like system, where entropy and energy play roles of swarm intelligence and income, respectively. However, different from the physical entropy in the Boltzmann system, the entropy (or swarm intelligence) in the economic system is a self-referential variable, which may be a key characteristic for distinguishing between biological and physical systems. Furthermore, we employ the household income data from 66 countries and Hong Kong SAR to test the validity of the Boltzmann-like distribution. Remarkably, the empirical data are perfectly consistent with the theoretical results. This finding implies that the competitive behaviors among a colony of self-interested agents will spontaneously prompt the colony to evolve to a state of higher technological level, although each agent has no willingness to evolve.
