The role of intuition is evident and clearly lost in the computer world in which we live. <br /><br />Thanks for the info.<br /><br />Kathleen<br />KBK Wealth Connection<br />www.kbkwealthconnection.comKathleen Burns Kingsburyhttp://www.kbkwealthconnection.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7366878066073177705.post-61870580114165727662010-03-10T15:58:55.271+00:002010-03-10T15:58:55.271+00:00Which suggests, at the very least, that the financ...<i>Which suggests, at the very least, that the financial industry’s determination to reduce costs and automate lending decisions comes at a cost: the loss of individual human judgement about the trustworthiness of individuals.</i><br /><br />I think this is a big deal.<br /><br />As we have seen advances in technology, more and more decisions that used to be made by the exercise of human judgment have been taken over by machines. Google doesn't decide what is the best article for a given search term by having a human assess the value of the article -- it uses an algo that can be gamed.<br /><br />The machine does a not-bad job. And at far less cost than what it would cost to hire humans to do the same job. But machines make mistakes that even the dumbest humans would never make. Sooner or later, that sort of thing catches up with you.<br /><br />We have never tried putting the machines in control before.
