37 Computer Vision News Computer Vision News The Post of the Month … […] I was spending an afternoon with Nobel Prize-winning game theorist Roger Myerson. Naturally, much of our conversation revolved around humanity’s relationship to technology. Every time a shiny new AI capability like Strawberry shows up, the internet gets noisy with the usual gaggle of hypebeasts and curmudgeons weighing in on how good it actually is (or isn’t). But that’s not what Roger and I talked about. Instead, we skipped right to the logical conclusion of every AI release, asking: “Imagine if AI was so good that you could get an instant answer to any question you wanted to ask. Or instant output for any request you made. What would be worth teaching in a world like that?” Our answer? The one thing we’ve been trying to teach for decades. The most valuable skill there is: https://lnkd.in/eGVpbach In the past, the difficulty of getting the answer was often a filter that ensured only those who understood the problem deeply would arrive at a solution. Now, with AI making the journey to the answer trivial, we must shift our focus. The real work is not in getting the answer but in framing the problem, in knowing which questions to ask, and in critically evaluating the outputs. As our tools improve, the real challenge remains: understanding what you’re doing when you use them. We have better, faster, and flashier tools at our disposal, but if decisionmakers don’t have a clear grasp of their mental models — the frameworks through which they interpret the world — then all those tools are nothing more than noise. A flashy simulation or a complex model is useless if the decision maker doesn’t understand the assumptions underlying it or the questions they’re truly asking. The more our tools do for us, the less we seem to understand about what we’re really asking them to do. If a decision-maker's mental tools are blunt, better tech won't fix the problem. AI doesn't think or reason, not matter how much the interface prints the words "Thinking..." to screen. Thinking is the human part and it's your responsibility. Tomorrow's challenge won't be about having the right tool; it'll be about having the right mindset. Read on here: https://lnkd.in/eGVpbach […]
