Will You Have Autonomy in the Metaverse?
12. December 2022/18:00 - 19:30
Online Lecture Series Wintersemester 2022/2023
Lecture by
Kat Geddes, NYU School of Law
Abstract:
The talk describes how computational prediction is reshaping our tolerance for prediction, and undermining institutional commitments to respect for individual autonomy by increasing the likelihood of ex ante intervention in individual decision-making. Prof. Geddes uses examples from criminal justice (algorithmic predictions of recidivism in post-conviction sentencing) and political democracy to illustrate the autonomy-eroding effects of prediction, and she argues that sophisticated computational models are reshaping the prediction-autonomy trade-off.
