Do We Possess the Intelligence to Design Artificial Intelligence
- 7. FAST SLOW SYSTEM1 SYSTEM2 Operates automatically / quickly with little effort. No sense of voluntary control. Example: Detect that one object that is more distant than another Controlled and allocates attention to the effortful mental activities that demand it, including complex computations. Example: Compare two washing machines for overall value TWO-SYSTEMSMODELOFTHEMIND

How happy are you with your life these days? What is my mood right now? How should financial advisers who prey on the elderly be punished? How much anger do I feel when I think of financial predators? ANSWERING AN EASIER QUESTION Substituting Questions

- 16. REMEMBERTHIS… ASKYOURSELFTHIS… System 1 generates impressions, feelings, and inclinations; when endorsed by system 2 these become beliefs, attitudes and intentions. Should AI have fast and slow complimentary systems with similar characteristics as the human mind? System 1 is a machine for jumping to conclusions. When do you want AI to trust its gut and jump to conclusions based on feelings and inclinations? We are rarely stumped because system 1 will just answer an easier question that uses available information. Do you want AI to substitute hard questions for easier questions? It’s a very human quality. DOWEPOSSESSTHEINTELLIGENCE TODESIGNARTIFICIALINTELLIGENCE?

- 22. System 1 is adept at causal connections but they can be wrong. We fall into a trap that “What you see is all there is.” It is a difficult relationship between our mind and statistics. THE LAW OF SMALL NUMBERS Small samples yield extreme results more often than large samples do.

- 26. REMEMBERTHIS… ASKYOURSELFTHIS… System 1 is adept at causal connections on the basis of scraps of evidence. We fall into a trap that “What you see is all there is.” Are ML models trained on data that are too limited and biased? Does the dataset accurately represent the diversity of the customer base? Sustaining doubt is harder work than sliding into certainty. How can AI systems help us make better causal judgements? Causal explanations will be falsely used when regression is the inevitable explanation. Do we need to be concerned with our attempt to humanize AI systems and pass along bogus or biased causal explanations? DOWEPOSSESSTHEINTELLIGENCE TODESIGNARTIFICIALINTELLIGENCE?

- 31. REMEMBERTHIS… ASKYOURSELFTHIS… We exaggerate the role of skill and underestimate the part that luck played in the outcome. Will we say, “that robot was lucky?” We get the causal relationship backwards because of the halo effect. When is an algorithm better than human judgement?

- 43. REMEMBERTHIS… ASKYOURSELFTHIS… Losses loom larger than gains which make us loss averse. Will AI choices factor the psychological benefits of gains and cost of losses of the choice? We become risk seeking when all the options are bad. Will our personal AI assistants inherit our individual morality and make choices accordingly?
