Hive Mind A.I. Forecasts Tech Trends (TechCrunch)

Most A.I. technologies emulate the biology of Neurological Intelligence. This A.I. technology emulates the biology of Swarm Intelligence.

A swarm is unlike a market and has been shown to outperform. The reason is that a market is sequential, subject to momentum and bubbles. A swarm is parallel, all the participating agents converging on answers in synchrony.

As I understand it, that is why biologists look at swarms as "emergent intelligence" that acts like a super-organism. The UNU technology creates such a system for humans, by enabling the real-time feedback loops artificially.
