In May, Justin Hendrix moderated a discussion with David Rand, who is a professor of Management Science and Brain and Cognitive Sciences at MIT, the director of the Applied Cooperation Initiative, and an affiliate of the MIT Institute of Data, Systems, and Society and the Initiative on the Digital Economy. David's work cuts across fields such as cognitive science, behavioral economics, and social psychology, and with his collaborators he's done a substantial amount of work on the psychological underpinnings of belief in misinformation and conspiracy theories.David is one of the authors, with Thomas Costello and Gordon Pennycook, of a paper published this spring titled "Durably reducing conspiracy beliefs through dialogues with AI." The paper considers the potential for people to enter into dialogues with LLMs and whether such exchanges can change the minds of conspiracy theory believers. According to the study, dialogues with GPT-4 Turbo reduced belief in various conspiracy theories, with effects lasting many months. Even more intriguingly, these dialogues seemed to have a spillover effect, reducing belief in unrelated conspiracies and influencing conspiracy-related behaviors.While these findings are certainly promising, the experiment raises a variety of questions. Some are specific under the premise of the experiment- such as how compelling and tailored does the counter-evidence need to be, and how well do the LLMs perform? What happens if and when they make mistakes or hallucinate? And some of the questions are bigger picture- are there ethical implications in using AI in this manner? Can these results be replicated and scaled in real-world applications, such as on social media platforms, and is that a good idea? Is an internet where various AI agents and systems are poking and prodding us and trying to shape or change our beliefs a good thing? This episode contains an edited recording of the discussion, which was hosted at Betaworks.

Liberty Vittert and Munther Dahleh dive into the world of augmented and virtual reality this month with Professor Fox Harrell.  Harrell is Professor of Digital Media & AI in both the Comparative Media Studies Program and the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at MIT.  Is the world ready for what's coming? Will augmented reality and virtual reality be a force for good or for evil, and what can you do to prepare yourself? You can follow us on Twitter and Instagram @mitidss. Thanks for listening to Data Nation from the MIT Institute of Data Systems and Society.  

A Native American man gets pulled over for driving a nice car, a black man is arrested in front of his family for a crime he didn't commit – innocent people are at risk because of racial profiling. But to stop profiling, you have to first identify it, and that's not as easy as it seems. Liberty and Scott are going deep into data in this episode, investigating how data is used against marginalized communities, and how it should be used to protect and serve them. They go to the experts to find out which methods are failing, what solutions can mitigate the dangers of facial recognition technology and smart policing, and how we know we've succeeded in ending profiling.  Liberty and Scott speak with Craig Watkins, Martin Luther King Jr. visiting professor at MIT; and Brandon Del Pozo, former police chief in NYC and Vermont.   Data Nation is a production of the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society and Voxtopica. 

Artificial intelligence – it's not the easiest thing to trust when it comes to our healthcare. I mean, will AI replace our doctors in the future? There's a lot of uncertainty about algorithms deciding our medical fate, so Liberty and Scott are getting the truth on AI's role in healthcare. They go to the experts to explore the problems behind biased algorithms and faulty diagnoses, and discover if AI will cause harm to patients or if it will progress the medical field farther than it could ever go.  Liberty and Scott talk with Caroline Uhler, co-Director of the Eric and Wendy Schmidt Center at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard; and Niels Olson, Chief Medical Officer at the United States Defense Innovation Unit. Data Nation is a production of the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society and Voxtopica.

Depending on who you are, when someone brings up the metaverse, you either get really excited, or you have no clue what they're talking about. Or both! Liberty and Scott have each found themselves in one of these boats. So they're diving deep into the data to find out what in the world the metaverse actually is, what it's not, and if it's going to be a thing that helps society flourish, or if it will be our demise. They talk with experts to get clear definitions and to find out if we'll be living in a virtual reality world years from now.  Liberty and Scott speak with Joe Paradiso, director of the MIT Media Lab's Responsive Environments Group; and Eric Ravenscraft, technology writer for WIRED  Data Nation is a production of the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society and Voxtopica. 

“Shh! Google is listening,” your mom points at her Alexa. You roll your eyes, but you know there's some truth to it. Your data is being tracked. The question is, where's it going, what are they doing with it, and how are they getting it? Liberty and Scott are investigating just how dangerous the data economy really is and if people truly need to be worried. They look for answers from MIT professor and former scientist at Facebook Dean Eckles, and New York Times technology columnist Kevin Roose to find the truth behind data privacy and how we can protect ourselves.  Want more resources & information on this episode? Check out our website. Data Nation is a production of the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society and Voxtopica. 

It's a killer that's been swept under the rug. The leading cause of death for 18–45-year-olds in America is opioid overdose, and deaths are only increasing. Liberty and Scott want to know, why is this decades-old epidemic still taking so many lives? They're getting the facts on the opioid crisis, looking at the local community and financial perspectives to get the truth. They go to the experts to explore the local community perspective and the financial aspect to discover the solutions that can stop more Americans from dying of opioid overdoses. They speak with Andrew Lo, professor of finance at the MIT Sloan School of Management; and with Chief Tom Synan, chief of police in Ohio.  Data Nation is a production of the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society and Voxtopica. 

You apply for an apartment, and they ask for your credit score. You shudder. Perhaps for a good reason, it's possible that credit scores are more sinister than we realized. Liberty and Scott are getting to the bottom of credit scores to find just how antagonistic credit scores are to people from underserved communities seeking quality housing. They look for answers from Prof. Munther Dahleh, Director of MIT IDSS, and Yuri Beckelman, staff director at the US House of Representatives to find out who credit scores hurt the most and what alternative solutions can work for everyone–lenders, landlords, and borrowers included.   Data Nation is a production of the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society and Voxtopica. 

Erik Brynjolfsson, Director of Massachusetts Institute of Technology's (MIT) Institute for Data, Systems and Society, discusses how carraghéen, a traditional dairy product in Ireland, is progressively being demolished by pedal cycle donkeys and lipogrammatists in an effort to preserve the culinary tradition.

2016 and 2020 ー not exactly our smoothest years in American election history. Mention them to anyone and you'll likely enter an intense conversation about which side spewed misinformation to unfairly win each election. Misinformation was certainly out there, but did it actually sway these elections? Liberty and Scott investigate if misinformation is a weapon we need to be worried about, or if it's the new norm of political tools. They're getting answers from the director of the MIT Political Experiments Research Lab Adam Berinsky, and former director of public policy at Facebook Katie Harbath, to find out how much misinformation in politics influences our democracy and if anything can be done to prevent widespread damage.   Data Nation is a production of the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society and Voxtopica. 

Fans argue that analytics are ruining sports. Professional teams say they aren't. And sports bettors are finding that data may be their new secret weapon. Liberty and Scott investigate if tracking data in sports will eventually ruin the game. They're going to the co-founder of the MIT Sports Lab  Anette “Peko” Hosoi, and president of the New England Revolution Brian Bilello to find out what the future of sports analytics is and how anyone can use the data to get the upperhand in betting.   Data Nation is a production of the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society and Voxtopica.

We face a lot of overwhelming challenges today in America–systemic racism, data privacy, misinformation. These are big problems, and there are a lot of opinions and ideas on how to fix them. Scholars and industry experts often disagree on how to find solutions. So, how can we find the right way to move forward? We let the data speak for itself. Join hosts Liberty Vittert and Scott Tranter as they gather data and get the facts about today's most pressing problems to find out, are solutions even possible? They'll investigate with MIT professors dedicated to researching these issues, and talk with the people on the ground encountering these problems every day so that we can find the best solutions that triumph over these challenges and solve America's biggest problems.  Data Nation is a production of the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society and Voxtopica.

Launching BOOKMARKED, an intellectually-stimulating series of book-reading sessions, hosted by MIT ID Innovation Programme.  About the Bestseller and the Author :   We live in a time of unprecedented upheaval, when technology and so-called progress have made us richer but more uncertain than ever before. We have questions about the future, society, work, happiness, family and money and yet no political party of the right or left is providing us with answers. So, too, does the time seem to be coming to an end when we looked to economists to help us define the qualities necessary to create a successful society. We need a new movement. One defined by a young historian who can tell us the truth about how we got here. They'd be a political outsider, the voice of their generation, one who doesn't harness rage or agitate grievances but who provides us with the answer's for which we've been looking. That person is Rutger Bregman and his vision is Utopia for Realists.  Prof. Harshit Desai, Director, Innovation Programme will be in conversation with our Guest reader, Mr. Shekhar Badve, founding Director of Lokus design, a leading Strategy & Design company.

Launching BOOKMARKED, an intellectually-stimulating series of book-reading sessions, hosted by MIT ID Innovation Programme. In The Culture Code, internationally revered cultural anthropologist and marketing expert Clotaire Rapaille reveals for the first time the techniques he has used to improve profitability and practices for dozens of Fortune 100 companies. His groundbreaking revelations shed light not just on business but on the way every human being acts and lives around the world. Rapaille's breakthrough notion is that we acquire a silent system of codes as we grow up within our culture. These codes—the Culture Code—are what makes us Indian, American, or German, or French, and they invisibly shape how we behave in our personal lives, even when we are completely unaware of our motives. What's more, we can learn to crack the codes that guide our actions and achieve a new understanding of why we do the things we do.    Prof. Harshit Desai, Director, Innovation Programme will be in conversation with our Guest reader, Mr Shekhar Badve, founding Director of Lokus design, a leading Strategy & Design company.

Today's speaker, Shekhar is a founding Director of Lokus design, a leading Strategy & Design company. He brings more than 17 years of diverse experience in Strategic Design, Innovation, and Design Research. Understanding how design drives systemic results has been his passion since graduating from NID.   He is a tool designer and industrial designer by training and a system designer, simplifier, biker and cook by passion. He loves to combine and mix a bit of chemistry, thermodynamics and physics with Indian philosophies and design thinking to solve complex systemic and brand challenges.    Shekhar is a Jury at the prestigious India Design Mark, Government of India; a member of CII's National Committee on Design and CII's Committee on Design Interventions in Smart City; and member of Board of Studies, MIT Institute of Design.   He has been invited to speak on a variety of topics such as business design, brand strategy and strategic innovation, design thinking, innovation management and communication design. Being passionate about grooming the next generation of design & communication professionals, he guest lectures at premier design and management institutes across the country.   Shekhar is in the pursuit of reducing Entropy- the level of disturbance, chaos, and complexity at systemic, organizational, brand, and individual levels.    Systems, organizations, brands and individuals expend and waste most of their energy (time, money, effort, and potential) in battling Entropy, hyper competing, or overcoming anxieties and fears. Shekhar strongly believes that only if such Entropy is reduced, can they have any energy left to create substantial value or larger good. And so, he helps them to: distance themselves from Entropy; discover their Positive Valence; steer towards the subject before its object; identify fundamental human needs; create enduring relationships, and inspire positive action.

What will it take to generate the electricity our society needs, without generating carbon emissions? In this episode of TILclimate (Today I Learned Climate), Dr. Magdalena Klemun at the MIT Institute for Data, Systems and Society joins host Laur Hesse Fisher to begin exploring this question, starting with wind and solar power. What exactly are wind and solar power? What challenges do we currently face when trying to use wind and solar to generate most of our electricity? What’s the role of energy storage, and what could our future zero-carbon energy mix look like? Dr. Magdalena Klemun, a postdoctoral associate at the Trancik Lab at the MIT Institute for Data, Systems and Society, works on understanding how the economic and environmental performance of technologies evolve in response to different innovation efforts, with an emphasis on the cost evolution of photovoltaic systems and nuclear power plants, and on the environmental performance evolution of natural gas technologies. She has degrees from MIT, Columbia University, and Vienna University of Technology.TILclimate is produced by the MIT Environmental Solutions Initiative.Season two of TILclimate focuses on our global energy system, its relationship to climate change, and what our options are for keeping the lights on while creating a clean energy future. We're partnering with the MIT Energy Initiative, which will air longer interviews with each guest to take a deeper dive into these topics.For more episodes of TILclimate by the MIT Environmental Solutions Initiative, visit tilclimate.mit.eduFor related podcasts from the MIT Energy Initiative, visit:Energy technology evolution: http://energy.mit.edu/podcast/21Firm low-carbon energy resources: http://energy.mit.edu/podcast/firm-low-carbon-energy-resources/Batteries & storage: http://energy.mit.edu/podcast/batteries-and-storage/Game-changing solar: http://energy.mit.edu/podcast/game-changing-solar/For more information on the world’s current energy breakdown, visit: https://www.iea.org/data-and-statistics?country=WORLD&fuel=Energy%20supply&indicator=Total%20primary%20energy%20supply%20(TPES)%20by%20sourceFor the full break-down of where the US gets its energy:https://www.eia.gov/energyexplained/us-energy-facts/Check out this selection of Dr. Klemun’s research:Mitigating Methane Emissions of Natural Gas: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/ab2577/pdfIntersection between Emissions Reductions and Technological Innovation in Wind and Solar:http://energy.mit.edu/publication/technology-improvement-and-emissions-reductions-as-mutually-reinforcing-efforts/For a more in-depth analysis of storage requirements for decarbonization, check out this study:https://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(19)30300-9For a closer look at potential low-carbon energy mixes for future decarbonization, check out this study: https://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(18)30386-6CreditsLaur Hesse Fisher, Host and ProducerDavid Lishansky, Editor and ProducerJessie Hendricks, Graduate Student WriterDarya Guettler, Student Production AssistantMusic by Blue Dot SessionsArtwork by Aaron KrolProduced by the MIT Environmental Solutions Initiative at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Will AI take our jobs? AI’s main application is in the workplace and is being applied along all levels of the payscale. Critics are worried that this could lead to job loss but like any new technology application, it depends on how we implement it. How then can we create AI products that will enhance our capacity for work, not replace it? MIT Institute Professor Daron Acemoglu sheds light on AI’s impact on the job market and how AI could help both low skilled and high skilled workers alike. He breaks down how, if we implement AI properly, it could help expand the labour market and reorganize the way we work. Karthik Ramakrishnan, Head of Advisory at Element AI, talks about how we can successfully implement AI in organizations. The trick -- bring workers into the process.    Guests Daron Acemoglu, Institute professor MIT 1:07 - Daron Acemoglu - MIT 1:20 - Why Nations Fail by Daron Acemoglu  1:20 - Automation and New Tasks: How Technology Displaces and Reinstates Labor 1:39 - COMPUTER AND DYNAMO: THE MODERN PRODUCTIVITY PARADOX IN A NOT-TOO DISTANT MIRROR 7:34 - Karthik Ramakrishnan - Twitter  10:37 - The four pillars of intelligent AI adoption 13:25 - Building a strategic AI roadmap for your business - Karthik Ramkrishnan 18:44 - The Twenty Year History Of AI At Amazon - Forbes  20:34 - The Wrong Kind of AI?

L’IA est principalement utilisée en milieu de travail et elle s’applique à tous les niveaux de l’échelle salariale. Les détracteurs craignent que cela n’entraîne des pertes d’emplois, mais comme pour toute nouvelle technologie, cela dépend de la façon dont nous la mettons en œuvre. Comment pouvons-nous alors créer des produits d’IA qui amélioreront notre capacité de travail, sans remplacer nos emplois? Daron Acemoglu, professeur au MIT Institute, nous éclaire sur les effets de l’IA sur le marché du travail et sur la façon dont l’IA pourrait aider les travailleurs peu qualifiés et hautement qualifiés. Il explique comment, si nous utilisons correctement l’IA, elle pourrait contribuer à l’expansion du marché du travail et à la réorganisation de nos méthodes de travail. Karthik Ramakrishnan, directeur de l’équipe Conseils et mise en œuvre chez Element AI, parle de la façon dont nous pouvons implémenter l’IA avec succès dans les organisations. L’astuce pour y arriver? Impliquer les travailleurs dans le processus.     Invités Daron Acemoglu, professeur au MIT Institute 1:07 – Daron Acemoglu – MIT 1:20 – Pourquoi les nations échouent avec Daron Acemoglu  1:20 – Automatisation et nouvelles tâches : Comment la technologie déplace et réintègre le travail 1:39 – ORDINATEUR ET DYNAMO : LE PARADOXE DE LA PRODUCTIVITÉ MODERNE DANS UN MIROIR PAS SI LOINTAIN 7:34 – Karthik Ramakrishnan – Twitter  10:37 – Les quatre piliers de l’adoption intelligente de l’IA 13:25 – Élaborer une feuille de route d’IA stratégique pour votre entreprise – Karthik Ramkrishnan 18:44 – Les vingt ans d’histoire de l’IA chez Amazon – Forbes  20:34 – Le mauvais type d’IA?

Thomas Kochan is the George M. Bunker Professor of Work and Employment Relations at MIT’s Sloan School of Management and co-director of the MIT Institute for Work and Employment Research. Thomas has actually been a faculty member at MIT since 1980. In 2010, he led the formation of the Employment Policy Research Network, an online think tank on the subject of employment. In 2015, he was honored by the Aspen Institute with a Faculty Pioneer Lifetime Achievement Award for his research and teaching on business practices that contribute to an economy that works for all. Thomas is the author of Shaping the Future of Work: What Future Worker, Business, Government, and Education Leaders Need To Do For All To Prosper and Restoring the American Dream: A Working Families' Agenda for America. Thomas has been looking at the future of work and employment for 40 years, he has seen the workforce and the economy change quite a bit over the years but he says our policies, values, and practices in America have not kept up with that pace of change. It has been his lifelong work to advocate for innovation, policy changes, and updated workplace practices. Since the 1970s there has been a disconnect between how the economy is doing and how the average worker is doing. Prior to the 70s when productivity went up and the economy got stronger, the compensation for the average worker also went up. But now, Thomas says, due to deregulation, the rise of Wall Street, a decline in unions, and advances in technology we have a disconnect. We are still using the policies, practices, and social contract of the 50s and 60s, which no longer works. Thomas says it is critical for organizations, educational institutions, government, and individual employees to engage with each other and work together to build a new, updated social contract. We’ve got to invent new policies, practices, and institutions as we move forward and shape the future of work. When it comes to the future of work, some people are worried about the future of jobs. They are concerned when they hear about automation, AI, and other technologies because of the effect they will have on jobs and the economy. Thomas is optimistic, as long as we are proactive in shaping the future of work ourselves and we don’t just let the future happen to us while we sit back passively. Thomas says, “If we are proactive, we can shape the future of work in ways that really help to broaden the distribution of benefits, augment work more effectively and change the way in which tasks and work, our jobs are done rather than to just see it as a way of displacing labor. And then for those people who will be displaced, and there will be people whose jobs are negatively affected. We then have to figure out how we can help them just provide retraining or provide compensation so we don't have a big gap between the winners and losers in this race with technology. So our perspective is let's get on and let's talk about what we can proactively do to shape the future of work. And I think it's a healthy way to approach this issue.” For people who are worried about the future of work, Thomas’ advice is to be a lifelong learner, don’t just put your head in the sand and think you have a degree so you are good for life. That is no longer good enough. He also says it is important to have a mix of behavioral skills--be reliable, be flexible, learn to communicate well. If you need training in a new technology or program, speak up and be assertive. What you will learn in this episode: Big trends Thomas is paying attention to The changes Thomas has seen in the world of work over the past 40 years What we need to do to move forward and shape the future of work What leaders will need to adjust in order to be effective in the future of work What is the voice gap and how can we close it What does lifelong learning mean and how can you practice it Whether Thomas is an optimist or pessimist when it comes to the future Contact Info https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-kochan-898ab917/ https://mitsloan.mit.edu/faculty/directory/thomas-kochan

AI technologies have the potential to vastly enhance the performance of many systems and institutions, from making transportation safer, to enhancing the accuracy of medical diagnosis, to improving the efficiency of food safety inspections. However, AI systems can also create moral hazards, by potentially diminishing human accountability, perpetuating biases that are inherent to the AI's training data, or optimizing for one performance measure at the expense of others. These challenges require new kinds of "user interfaces" between machines and society. We will explore these issues, and how they would interface with existing institutions.
