For anyone interested in citizen science projects, please read the book “How and when to involve crowds in scientific research“ by Henry Sauerman and Marion K. Poetz.
This book explores how millions of people can significantly contribute to scientific research with their effort and experience, even if they are not working at scientific institutions and may not have formal scientific training. The book also discusses how recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI) shape the role of crowds in scientific research and can enhance the effectiveness of crowd science projects.
