Cause this sounds like what they’re supposed to be. (I heard their band broke up after the drummer died.) It’s called swarm intelligence, and it relates to AI research.
SI systems are typically made up of a population of simple agents interacting locally with one another and with their environment. The agents follow very simple rules, and although there is no centralized control structure dictating how individual agents should behave, local interactions between such agents lead to the emergence of complex global behavior.
The paranoid conspiracy conclusion might be something like, “Well then Al Qaeda must be robots!” But it might be better to compare both concepts to what’s called emergence:
In philosophy, systems theory and the sciences, emergence is the way complex systems and patterns arise out of a multiplicity of relatively simple interactions. Emergence is central to the theories of integrative levels and of complex systems.
