I worry about the dangers of AI in cases where users accept—or, worse, act upon—the cause-eﬀect relationships presumed in algorithms produced by machine learning without understanding them deeply.

Separate your “must-dos” from your “like-to-dos” and don’t mistakenly slip any “like-to-dos” onto the first list.

I often observe people making decisions if their odds of being right are greater than 50 percent. What they fail to see is how much better off they’d be if they raised their chances even more (you can almost always improve your odds of being right by obtaining more information).

Normally a winning decision is one with a positive expected value, meaning that the reward times its probability of occurring is greater than the penalty times its probability of occurring, with the best decision having the highest expected value. linkedin.com/pulse/make-you…

Reality exists at different levels and each of them gives you different but valuable perspectives. It’s important to keep all of them in mind as you synthesize and make decisions, and to know how to navigate between them. linkedin.com/pulse/principl…
