El Duvelle Neuro<p>I keep going back to this question about <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/TemporalCreditAssignment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TemporalCreditAssignment</span></a> and <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/HippocampalReplay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HippocampalReplay</span></a>:<br>As an "agent" you want to learn the value of places and which places are likely to lead to reward;</p><p>-1) if a place leads to higher than expected reward, you'll want to propagate back the reward info from the reward throughout the places that led to the reward. If replay does that you should see an increase of replay at a new reward site and the replay sequences should start at the reward and reflect what you just did to reach it. Right?</p><p>-2) if a place leads to lower than expected reward, you'll also want to propagate that lowered value, pretty much in the same way, so if replay does that you should see a similar replay rate and content for increased OR decreased reward sites. Right?</p><p>-3) if a place has had unchanged reward for a while and you're just in exploitation mode (just going there again and again because you know that's the best place to go to in the environment) then you shouldn't need to update anything and replay rate should be quite low at that unchanged reward side. Right?</p><p>That's not at all what replay is doing IRL, so does that mean replay is not used for temporal credit assignment? Or did I (very likely) miss something?</p><p><a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/Neuroscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Neuroscience</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/ComputationalNeuroscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ComputationalNeuroscience</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/DecisionMaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DecisionMaking</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/Hippocampus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hippocampus</span></a></p>

Dennis Alexis Valin Dittrich<p>The Unintended Effects of Ethical Decision Aids in Organizations <a href="https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/Delivery.cfm/5136031.pdf?abstractid=5136031&amp;mirid=1" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">papers.ssrn.com/sol3/Delivery.</span><span class="invisible">cfm/5136031.pdf?abstractid=5136031&amp;mirid=1</span></a><br>"Organizations frequently utilize Contemplation Questions in an attempt to foster ethical <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/decisionMaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>decisionMaking</span></a> and encourage employees to reflect on their actions. Presumably, they particularly target ’bad apples’—those (unknown) employees with a higher propensity for unethical behavior. However, our results indicate that CQs may inadvertently cause ’boomerang’ effects for this group. Individuals with lower <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/moral" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>moral</span></a> identities tend to use their interaction with CQs to justify their unethical preferences, increasing the likelihood of them acting unethically. While some CQs have positive effects on individuals with high moral identities, overall, the unintended consequences seem to be more significant. This aligns with the concept of motivated moral reasoning, where individuals rationalize their initial moral choices."<br><a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/ExperimentalEcon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ExperimentalEcon</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/ethics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ethics</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/motivatedReasoning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>motivatedReasoning</span></a></p>

AI agents acting on behalf of human principals are supposed to lead us into a new age of productivity and convenience. The eloquence of AI-generated text and the narrative of super-human intelligence invite us to trust these systems more than we have trusted any human or algorithm ever before.</p><p>It is difficult to know whether a machine is actually intelligent because of problems with construct validity, plagiarism, reproducibility and transferability in AI benchmarks. Most people will either have to personally evaluate the usefulness of AI tools against the benchmark of their own lived experience or be forced to trust an expert.</p><p>To explain this conundrum I propose the Intelligent AI Coin Thought Experiment and discuss four objections: the restriction of agents to low-value decisions, making AI decisionmakers open source, adding a human-in-the-loop and the general limits of trust in human agents.</p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/histodons" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>histodons</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/politicalscience" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>politicalscience</span></a></span> </p><p><a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/ArtificialIntelligence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ArtificialIntelligence</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/ThoughtExperiment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ThoughtExperiment</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Philosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Philosophy</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Benchmarks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Benchmarks</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Validity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Validity</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Plagiarism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Plagiarism</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Reproducibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Reproducibility</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Transferability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Transferability</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Decisionmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Decisionmaking</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Intelligence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Intelligence</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LLM</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/LargeLanguageModel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LargeLanguageModel</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Algorithm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Algorithm</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Justice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Justice</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Law</span></a></p>
