New research from the University of Montreal is the latest to explore how trust in robotic technology ebbs and flows among those working alongside them. It was in many ways a classic gametheory setup, with the human volunteer knowing that gains were to be made, but trust would be key.
The impact of autonomous vehicle technology on congestion has been a topic of discussion for some time now. “Without regulations on AVs, we face a classic example of gametheory paradox, such as the prisoner’s dilemma, where each vehicle tries to optimize its driving speed but the overall traffic flow is not optimal.
“We found that human drivers may take advantage of this technology by driving carelessly and taking more risks, because they know that self-driving cars would be designed to drive more conservatively.” The researchers built a gametheory inspired model to show how actors might interact with one another.
The research uses cooperative gametheory to attempt to model the kind of interactions that may occur inside the vehicle. Gametheory. To test their theory, the researchers created another approach that revolved around non-cooperative gametheory.
The authors believe that a central flaw in autonomous vehicle technology is that it tends to view humans as a homogeneous blob that acts in an identical manner. The researchers combined gametheory with social psychology to create a framework that allowed the vehicle to better conceive social situations. Nuanced views.
The benefit of this kind of team activity, is the opening of one’s mind, and shared creative stimulus, which fosters innovation. Economics and gametheory also provide valuable insight into the study of trust (cf. One part of fostering creativity and innovation is to accept the inevitable failures.
But Apple’s most impressive achievement on display at yesterday’s announcement was not a technological feat — although the technology on display was certainly impressive. Big companies’ struggles with innovation have been well documented — including by me. Yesterday, hardware stole the show at the Apple unveiling.
August 2002: HBR's special innovation issue hits the street, and my contrarian article about the fickle nature of corporate innovation sits sandwiched between stories by the likes of Peter Drucker, Henry Chesbrough, John Seely Brown, and Richard Florida. Breaking Out of the Innovation Box" was not the title I had wanted, but it worked.
The study found that when we think about the people who create robots (and other technologies), we seem to regard the work performed by the robot as more authentic. The researchers tested the authenticity of AI technology in a range of scenarios, from recruitment to therapy. Artificial authenticity.
