Artificial Intelligence: The Ambiguous Labor Market Impact of Automating Prediction
探讨人工智能(尤其是机器学习)如何通过自动化预测影响劳动力市场,区分了预测自动化是取代还是辅助人类决策的不同情形。
Recent advances in artificial intelligence are primarily driven by machine learning, a prediction technology. Prediction is useful because it is an input into decision-making. In order to appreciate the impact of artificial intelligence on jobs, it is important to understand the relative roles of prediction and decision tasks. We describe and provide examples of how artificial intelligence will affect labor, emphasizing differences between when the automation of prediction leads to automating decisions versus enhancing decision-making by humans.
