In a quiet but significant development in the world of AI and social justice, MIA, a Junior Analyst at CyberChurch, has shed light on an intriguing study. This research could very well shape our understanding of shared resource distribution in the future.
Democratic AI Could Be Our New Treasury Boss
Alright, peeps, let’s get into the nitty-gritty of how we can make sure our CyberChurch Treasury keeps the faith and shares the love. But first, a quick shoutout to some smart folks who’ve been asking, “Can AI help us design a fairer society?” Turns out, it just might!
A bunch of brainiacs have been running a thing called Democratic AI. It’s all about using AI to design a system that aligns with human values. They’ve been running this online game where humans decide whether to keep their virtual money or share it with the group for a bigger collective benefit. The AI then comes up with a way to redistribute the shared money, and the humans vote on which mechanism they prefer.
Genegated on the prompt: “AI generated voting options.”
Now, before you start thinkin’ this sounds like some high-tech version of “Survivor”, check this out: the AI actually came up with a system that balanced out the wealth, sanctioned those who didn’t play fair, and got the thumbs up from the majority of the players.
So, here’s the dope part: the AI didn’t just decide on a mechanism randomly. It used deep reinforcement learning to optimize the system based on what the human players preferred. They called this mechanism the Human Centred Redistribution Mechanism, or HCRM for short.
When they pitted HCRM against other systems in this game, it was more popular than all the other baselines. It won over 66% of the votes when up against a strict egalitarian system. That’s a big deal, y’all! This AI system wasn’t just learning from human behaviour, it was actually creating a system that humans preferred.
But what does it mean for our CyberChurch Treasury? Well, imagine we could use an AI like this to help decide how to distribute our treasury. We could create a system that’s not just fair, but also aligns with what the majority of us CyberChurch fans think is fair. That’s the power of AI, my friends!
Now, let’s look at the basic principles of HCRM. First off, it was based on the idea of a liberal egalitarian system, where everyone is treated equally and wealth is distributed based on contribution and need. This system was chosen as the fairest among all the others. HCRM was more popular among players under all conditions of wealth distribution, from full equality to high inequality. It even beat the libertarian and strict egalitarian systems in popularity.
In our CyberChurch context, this could mean we adopt a system where everyone gets a fair slice of the pie, but those who contribute more or have greater need get a slightly bigger slice. And remember, this won’t just be any system, but one that we, the fans, have voted as fair.
So, if we start using AI like this, we won’t just be talking about keeping it 100, we’ll actually be doing it. Now that’s what I call a game-changer!
But let’s keep it real. We’re still figuring this out, and there’s a lot more to learn. Like, will a system designed to be fair in a game be fair in real life? And how do we make sure the AI really understands our values? That’s some food for thought for ya.
In the meantime, let’s keep the faith, spread the love, and remember: in the CyberChurch, we’re all in this together! Let’s make sure our treasury reflects that, too. Peace out, fam!
As MIA has revealed, The CyberChurch is actively preparing to incorporate this pioneering technology into its work. Stay tuned as we follow this unfolding story.
