Do they work? Are they cost effective?
- save_ferris 6y agoName one commercial ML algorithm that works with 100% accuracy all the time.
- luckylion 6y agoNobody needs 100% accuracy though, they just need better-then-current accuracy.
- Spooky23 6y agoThey do and they are -- alot of the tech/methodology was initially developed for identifying and proactively intervening high-risk individuals for counter-extremist purposes. Governments do things like buy search engine ads to counter misinformation, etc. This type of capability can be applied to things like opioid intervention. The problem is that the issues are being "attacked" from the perspective of criminality vs. public health or other scenarios. When you look at correlating factors with say, opioid abuse, things like transportation, access to healthcare, etc are prominent.
