From the slides:
Harms of AI for predicting social outcomes
• Hunger for personal data
• Massive transfer of power from domain experts &
workers to unaccountable tech companies
• Lack of explainability
• Distracts from interventions
• Veneer of accuracy
Human behavior is not IID and these models will struggle and fail due to the fundamental statistical assumptions of modern AI techniques. I also agree that as a result, we will normalize the collection of personal data in the name social progress.
