Fragile Algorithms and Fallible Decision-Makers: Lessons from the Justice System
从算法在刑事司法系统中的使用经验出发,为机器学习扩散到社会其他领域提供教训,并指出经济学家等社会科学家在塑造算法影响中的关键作用。
Algorithms (in some form) are already widely used in the criminal justice system. We draw lessons from this experience for what is to come for the rest of society as machine learning diffuses. We find economists and other social scientists have a key role to play in shaping the impact of algorithms, in part through improving the tools used to build them.
