“Juror #13” and Robot Juries

Connecting dots.

AI as “data companion.”

Came across content from George C. Lee, Goldman Sachs Global Institute, suggesting AI in the Boardroom and it got me to thinking about our courts, judges, and juries.

Hope this is not too rambling.

Here I muse about what it could mean to have AI as a “13th Juror” in a jury.

»>of course small (restricted closed-universe data-set (admitted materials only)) and I am extremely PRO this concept. For your thoughts.

I think the concept of having an “AI Person” in all forms of deliberation (due to retention and speed of recall and comprehensive super-human search function) will be one of the big “W” of AI.

On Goldman and Lee, Perplexity digest below, and lets do a number on LEE!

Based on the search results, here are the key points about Goldman Sachs' perspective on AI in the boardroom:

1. George C. Lee, cohead of the Goldman Sachs Global Institute, argues that leaders should invite AI into the boardroom. He believes AI can help cultivate a culture of accountability, candor, and effective governance.

2. Lee suggests thinking of AI not as replacing human board members, but as a tool to augment their capabilities, empowering boards to perform their responsibilities with the assistance of a tireless, keen, and unemotional partner.

3. Potential applications of AI in the boardroom include:

   • Analyzing market trends, customer reviews, and competitive dynamics quickly

   • Broadening the context of discussions and introducing novel insights

   • Connecting dots across complex scenario analyses

   • Assisting with dynamic risk assessments and creating alternative strategies

4. AI-powered scenario planning tools could help boards navigate the complexities of global operations by simulating the impact of political changes, supply chain disruptions, or technological innovations.

5. However, Lee acknowledges limitations of current AI technology, including hallucinations, lack of explainability, and potential biases. He suggests considering AIs as boardroom companions rather than voting members or independent thinkers.

6. Goldman Sachs is actively exploring AI applications, with the company's CIO Marco Argenti noting that about 30-40% of meetings now start by reading AI-generated documents together (!!!!) and then commenting on them to make decisions.

7. While Goldman Sachs is optimistic about AI's potential in corporate settings, they also emphasize the need for responsible and controlled experimentation with the technology.

It's important to note that while Goldman Sachs sees potential for AI in boardrooms, they advocate for a balanced approach that leverages AI capabilities while recognizing its current limitations and the continued importance of human judgment in corporate governance.
