BIO

Arnaud Vincent obtained his master’s degree (DEA) in automated systems for manufacturing at Ecole Normale Supérieure de Cachan in 1998. Over the past 15 years he has worked in the racing tyre division of Michelin and as the CEO of an IT start-up in the early 2000’s (in datamining), before joining a IT company, subsidiary of BPCE group, as CEO and head of innovation for the past seven years.

To complete his PhD research, he left BPCE group in 2013 and got his PhD at Mines ParisTech in November 2013.

By Arnaud Vincent on ParisTech Review

As of the early 2000's, Internet has opened paths to a new form of collective intelligence, human or humanoid computing. Be reassured, reader, this is not a way to turn your brain into a computer. What it does is coordinate thousands of connected people together to assemble a computer power that exceeds, for certain complex problems, what is already available today via supercomputers. The specialty biochemistry was first on the track, and now we see financial affairs joining in. So, let's see what happens when amateurs take over a market trading room.
Depuis le début des années 2000 Internet a ouvert la voie à une nouvelle forme d'intelligence collective, le calcul humanoïde. Non, il ne s'agit pas de transformer votre cerveau en ordinateur. Mais de coordonner des milliers de personnes pour en tirer une puissance de calcul qui dépasse aujourd'hui, pour certains problèmes complexes, celle des supercalculateurs. La biochimie a ouvert la voie, la finance commence à l'emprunter. Que se passe-t-il quand des amateurs prennent les commandes d'une salle de marché?
