🔸 Does ordinary stuff have mysterious properties? Take anything; find all its parts; combine those parts any way you like. What do you expect? Nothing at all like what you have. It's called "emergence" and it describes how wondrously our world works. But is it a real mystery?

🧩 “The wisdom of the crowds” suggests that decentralized systems get smarter when they get bigger. But new research finds important exceptions to that rule.

Smarter Parts Make Collective Systems Too Stubborn

While past studies have suggested that there is a link between creativity and fame, Ingram and Banerjee found, in contrast, that there was no such correlation for these artists. Rather, artists with a large and diverse network of contacts were most likely to be famous, regardless of how creative their art was.
“An important implication of the paper is to show that diverse networks matter not only as a source of creativity…but could mean other benefits,” Ingram said. “That even aside from creativity…the artists benefit from the cosmopolitan identity.”

Study Finds Artists Become Famous through Their Friends, Not the Originality of Their Work
A new study on the early pioneers of abstraction found that artists with diverse social networks were most famous, regardless of the creativity of their work.

real networks are far more structurally diverse than claims of 'universality' can cover. We don't know what creates this diversity, but probably not any single mechanism. These findings bolster the need for new work figuring what mechanisms structure real networks.

Scale-free networks are rare
Real-world networks are often said to be ”scale free”, meaning their degree distribution follows a power law. Broido and Clauset perform statistical tests of this claim using a large and diverse corpus of real-world networks, showing that scale-free structure…
