Abstract:
AI systems often consist of multiple actors or agents with different goals, incentives and critically, information. In this talk, we explore the role that heterogeneous information plays. Across decision-making, pricing, and production tasks, we show that social outcomes improve as information diversity increases. We discuss implications for the development, deployment, and use of AI.
