DELICIOS - An integrated approach to study the delegation of decision-making to autonomous agents in socio-technicalsystems

Zeitrahmen: 1. November 2019 - 31. Oktober 2023
Finanzierung: FNR - INTER
Partnerorganisationen: Ghent University, Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Teilnehmer: BOTEV, Jean (Projektleiter), SUN, Ningyuan (Doktorand)

Beschreibung:

In this age of ubiquitous digital interconnectivity, we may envisage that humans will increasingly delegate their social, economic or data-related transactions to an autonomous agent, for reasons of convenience or complexity. Although the scientific knowledge to create such systems appears to be available, this transformation does not appear to become …
