Better Tools, Better Judgment?
Description
Better tools. More information. But are we making better decisions?
An alert tells you a vehicle may be stolen. What do you actually know, and what have you already started assuming?
This week on The Human Behavior Podcast, Brian Marren and Greg Williams use Flock cameras and automated license plate readers to examine how technology shapes human judgment. They discuss how a machine-generated alert can become an accepted explanation, why conflicting evidence gets overlooked, and what happens when people rely on technology before developing the skills to question it.
The conversation also tackles privacy, surveillance, mistakes, and accountability: Who can access the information, how is it used, and what happens when someone misuses it?
These questions extend to AI, GPS, and the tools we use every day.
Use technology to see more. Don’t let it give you permission to think less.
