Abstract

Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics are accelerating progress in swarm systems. Large and bulky autonomous systems are being replaced with many, smaller, cheaper, distributed, decentralized and collectively smarter systems. However, developing these swarm intelligence systems comes with multiple challenges, including technological challenges to engineer smaller and smarter machines, interaction challenges to design novel interfaces and modalities for communication and sociotechnical challenges related to trustworthiness, ethics and legalities. Swarm systems present philosophical and mathematical dilemmas that are worthy of deeper scientific inquiry. This introduction contextualizes the topic in the contemporary literature and shows the current research directions and evolution of swarm systems using 11 carefully selected papers in this special theme. We conclude by discussing the way forward for swarm systems.This article is part of the theme issue 'The road forward with swarm systems'.

群系统的未来之路。

人工智能（AI）和机器人技术的进步正在加速群体系统的发展。庞大的自主系统正在被许多更小、更便宜、分布式、去中心化和更智能的系统所取代。然而，开发这些群体智能系统面临着多重挑战，包括设计更小、更智能的机器的技术挑战，设计新颖界面和通信模式的交互挑战，以及与可信度、道德和合法性相关的社会技术挑战。群系统提出了哲学和数学上的难题，值得进行更深入的科学探究。本引言将该主题置于当代文献的背景中，并使用11篇精心挑选的论文，展示了当前群体系统的研究方向和演变。最后，我们讨论了群系统的发展方向。本文是“群系统的前进之路”主题的一部分。
