Listen "Finding A Use Case of Daniel Kahneman’s Book within the Psycho-Pass Anime"
Episode Synopsis
Cheech Sia's Medium article explores the connection between Daniel Kahneman's Thinking, Fast and Slow and the anime Psycho-Pass.
The article focuses on Kahneman's argument for the superiority of algorithms over human judgment in prediction, illustrated by an anecdote about Israeli military recruitment.
Sia then parallels this with Psycho-Pass's Sibyl System, a fictional algorithmic system for predicting criminal behavior.
The author ultimately speculates on the potential benefits and drawbacks of such a system in real life, acknowledging both optimism and pessimism about its future implementation.
The overall tone is reflective, presenting personal thoughts and opinions rather than definitive conclusions.
