AI Snake Oil

by Arvind Narayanan & Sayash Kapoor

Exploring automation bias: when does delegating decisions to machines weaken the judgment we still need to exercise?

Carrying

“Don’t automate away the participation required to understand what you’re responsible for judging.”

— Drew Barontini

Participation × Reflection → Understanding → Judgment

Questioning

Practicing

Building and sharing Equilio Coding.

Maintaining context, human judgment, and product coherence as AI writes more of the code.
