The organizational and Actual Boundaries of the Intelligent Consortium in the Real Business World

In The Organizational Settings of Intelligenism, the definition of an organizational individual is as follows: any individual who has a direct delineation of rights and responsibilities with the organization and is directly constrained by its rules is considered an organizational individual. This means that as long as an individual has an uncompleted rights conversion relationship with the organization, they are regarded as an organizational individual. Therefore, as mentioned in On Organization, customers in the process of consumption, customers post-consumption (with after-sales service), suppliers, and even other roles collaborating with the Intelligent Consortium are all considered organizational individuals under the organizational rules of the Intelligent Consortium.

Unfortunately, in the current global business environment, if we aim to form a business organization through the Intelligent Consortium, we may still need to operate within the existing organizational frameworks of business organizations (including but not limited to partnerships, limited liability companies, or other organizational forms) to achieve our business objectives. However, existing business organizations (including but not limited to limited liability companies and partnerships) have legal restrictions on the Approval of organizational members. For instance, in a limited liability company, corporate law imposes organizational constraints on shareholders, directors, supervisors, and employees. At the same time, consumers or suppliers are subject to certain legal constraints under other commercial agreements or consumer protection laws. However, these protections or contracts typically function in areas such as payment and quality assurance for consumers. In practice, they do not treat consumers or suppliers as organizational members of the business organization, nor do they assume that consumers have the rights that organizational members of a business organization should have. It must be acknowledged that current business organizational structures typically assume a top-down organizational structure under traditional cybernetics theory.

This implies that the Intelligent Consortium, as a bottom-up connectionism-based organization, has actual organizational boundaries that do not align with the assumed organizational boundaries under the legal frameworks of traditional business organizations. However, as a business organization, the Intelligent Consortium must still comply with existing organizational frameworks. Therefore, building an Intelligent Consortium organization under the current world’s traditional business organizational framework may face numerous challenges. We must all recognize the technical challenges faced by the Intelligent Consortium and Intelligenism as a new solution for our society, requiring practitioners to explore more innovative solutions in real-world environments. (I will attempt to propose some solutions to some of these challenges and issues in the Construction of the Intelligent Consortium chapter.)
