Visiting lecturer will explore expanded vision for AI in research | Cornell Chronicle
Briefly

"Computing will have the biggest positive impact on society not from algorithms doing what we already do cheaper or in silico, but from doing things that humans cannot even dream of," Mullainathan said, in describing the talk. "In effect, we want thought partners, not substitutes. Building such algorithms requires that we integrate our knowledge of people with our knowledge of computing."
Mullainathan will discuss creating artificial intelligence to complement rather than replace human intelligence, emphasizing the importance of building algorithms that enhance human capacity.
His lectures will explore incorporating behavioral science into computational systems and the profound effects that algorithms can have on public policy and economics.
