You are implying that blind-leading-the-blind is good, not bad, here, correct? I’m interested to hear more of your thoughts on why that will result in collective intelligence and not collective decoherence; it seems plausible to me, but some swarm algorithms work and some don’t.
I’m claiming that blind-leading-the-blind can work at all, and is preferable to a low-karma section containing both newbies and long time members whose low karma reflects quality issues. Skilled mentorship is almost certainly better, but I don’t think that’s available at the necessary scale.
I think the peer thing is pretty good, and recreates the blind-leading-the-blind aspect of early lesswrong.
