Technology Assisted Human Governance or TAHG

in #technology • 10 years ago

A political social interaction site that allows you to talk to your governor, president or other citizens about laws, policy and current events in a very efficient way.

Basically you can message the president directly, ask him questions or give suggestions. This is how it works.

Improving Democracy

Everyone who wants to asks a question or proposes an idea and these get funneled into amazing artificial intelligence which combines hundreds questions into a simplest overarching question. Human assistance verifies the AI and likely rewrites the question.

But the president can choose an actual question from a real person and answer that person directly, and they will know it.

Network of Participation

This can happen real time with citizens getting stock answers, while seeing real conversations inviting their participation. A network of ideas can happen real time, and it is like voting on what is asked and said.

Others may get a summary reply. The reply may be altered using AI which pulls from human-given answers. Possible replies going to multiple people on a topic, may combine to answer others.

Uniqueness Important

Uniqueness is valued and human assistance verifies when a computer discovers a good unique suggestion or question. After working through typical questions, the president can focus on the truly unique material.

Tree Tool

To choose a variant of a question the president can see an organized tree of summary or actual questions, from which he can scroll down to real questions from real people, if he chooses. The very best are selected to come up first by computer and human help.

Conclusion

This is an idea I've had for about a year, but recent comments on technology helping or replacing human governance reminded me of it. This opinion represents my thinking of technology being a good servant or tool rather than master.

But I also love artificial intelligence, and I believe some day we will use computers give us suggestions on court decisions. A recent post prompts this idea. It's not that we cannot decide better, it is that a computer can read everything and bring up relevant material perhaps assisted by multiple lawyer-experts on various fields and topics.

The phrase human governance I get from @stevescoins.

    From my own viewpoint, as flawed as we are as humans, I think the final decision on any issue should be made by a human. But you are absolutely right that AI's can aid in those decisions.

    AI's would be the next tool that we can use in analysis. Writing was the first tool, as it allowed us to keep track of our own thoughts. Books became the next step as they allowed us to access the thinking and calculating of the people before us. Computing gave us access to automated mathematical and analytic processes, as well as easier access to books. The internet allowed us to act as a neural network and share our perspectives and argumentation in real time.

    Technology will make thinking easier with each progression.

    Thanks for the shoutout!

    I just found this on the internet. Very interesting:

    But why not move AR leftward – into the realm of Information Governance? Why not use these intelligent classification systems to categorize and cull unstructured data at the enterprise level, before litigation or the threat of it, arises? In other words, let’s develop a Technology Assisted Governance (TAG) protocol.

    Corporations could deploy an intelligent TAG program to re-orient the efficiencies of AR so that they take place well before the review of ESI begins in a law firm. In so doing, law firm attorneys can review documents that have already received the AR treatment, before they’re subject to litigation – and then perhaps can be subject to the process again, once the details of a particular matter or investigation are known. The numerous applications of TAG would occur, in a best-case scenario, before the data was collected and distributed to outside counsel for review.

    Now, obviously this brings certain challenges. The AR methodology employed by the corporation will obviously have to be designed with GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance) issues in mind, and will be subject to examination by certain bodies who want to ensure that relevant data isn’t culled or classified for deletion. There are a myriad other challenges that will arise from bringing AR behind the firewall. But they are challenges that smart attorneys and technologists can, in my estimation, address over time.

    The fact remains that corporations are best-suited to classify their own data. We should work with them to implement a model that will empower them to do just that in a defensible and repeatable way.

    Technology Assisted Governance is the right solution.
