Decision Intelligence News
Decision Intelligence (DI) is the discipline concerned with how organizations and individuals design, support, and improve decision making at scale. It connects actions to outcomes in context by integrating human judgment, data, models, text, and AI into coherent decision systems. Decision Intelligence News curates developments across DI and related fields, including AI, machine learning, governance, enterprise architecture, orchestration, measurement, and decision modeling. Learn more at www.opendi.org and www.learn-di.com. Curated by Decision Intelligence |

One hundred years from now, the role of science and technology will be about becoming part of nature rather than trying to control it. - Joichi Ito, MIT Media Lab director
In complex systems, trade-offs are everywhere. Engineers designing technological artifacts carefully balance competing objectives. An economy allocates resources like land, labor and capital to one use or another. Even evolution faces trade-offs.
Some insights into how to make trade-offs in complex systems when there are multiple competing outcomes.

The decision is only as good as the data that supports it” is an often-misunderstood claim. For example, a pollster can reliably predict an election result based on interviews with a tiny percentage of the electorate.
Often it's the decision that matters, more than the data that supports it. Why? Because data is just one ingredient. A complex systems model, human expertise, and other factors are needed to complete the picture

(Image) (If you’re honest, you’ll admit that the art of #storytelling wins over “the facts” in most #business cultures.
"while business cultures like to profess “In God we trust; all others must bring data,” the reality is that human beings still like a gripping narrative, and emotional stories can sometimes override what seems like the best decision on paper"
This is true all too often, unfortunately.

A rapidly growing groundswell of public opinion in Australia is pushing strongly for a much stricter system to ensure that health care decisions are made more cooperatively between the patient and the health care provider.This is the firm view of ...
There's a complex interplay between doctor, patient, data, and research in medical decision making. And an emerging discussion around it.

The Black Swan has been highly influential on our work at http://www.quantellia.com and www.tdi3.org, and now it's time to read Antifragile. Why: "...efforts at micromanaging complex systems has increased our vulnerability, and we would be better off if those systems were able to self-correct. He uses a rich trove of historical examples, anecdotes, and mathematics to prove his assertions."
We experience unintended consequences everywhere, especially on the part of our clients who are over-focusing on "Big Data" as the ultimate solution to evidence-based reasoning (instead of smart models, which should expose antifragility), so this resonates deeply.
