Learning from Leaders
Human-AI Integration with Renee Richardson Gosline
Tuesday, Oct 19 2021 at 12:00 - 1:00 pm EDT
The Yale Center for Customer Insights is excited to announce our upcoming session of the Learning from Leaders (LFL) Webinar Series on Tuesday, October 19, 11:00am-12:00pm EST. The series will feature leaders in academia and industry across marketing functions sharing their expertise on the changing world of marketing and insights and will be open to the general public. Advance Registration is required.
Human decisions are increasingly mediated by technology, as we navigate input from “artificially-intelligent” recommendation systems and outsource cognitive load to algorithms. Enabled by this digital transformation, firms have extolled the virtues of “frictionless” experiences – removing impediments and requiring less deliberation in decision journeys. Senior Lecturer in the Management Science group at the MIT Sloan School of Management, and lead Research Scientist in the Human-AI Interaction group at MIT's Initiative on The Digital Economy, Renée Richardson Gosline will explore some of the factors that affect people’s perceptions of algorithmic input, and how adding friction may actually be beneficial for minimizing harm and sharing value in customer experiences.
