This is literally Big Data in practice. If a superhuman level of intelligence is achieved (as in, comprehension beyond that which any individual human could possibly contain) it will be in the field of controlling groups of humans' behavior.
We could already be there. We won't know, because by definition we won't be able to grasp the scope of it.
My own theory is that this is the strong claim to a-life as practiced by collective organisms. To a cell, a human is a bunch of nearby cells, but to the human, the cell could be a potential fingernail clipping. To collective a-life, humans are no longer the point.
