12. REINFORCEMENT PITFALLS
- (Technical) Overfitting
- Humans have to question their own assumptions
- Dimensional encoding issues (is this expressible
in features?)
- Human definitions is inadequate
14. WHY IS SVM BETTER?
Feature inspectability
• sometimes for debugging
• mostly for humans
Humans don’t know what transformation the black box
exerts on inputs. But sometimes, they need to know.
Their investors, their customers, their data analysts, their
operators, their CEO — all want to know.
16. HUMANS SHOULD BE HUMANS
COMPUTERS SHOULD BE COMPUTERS.
Sometimes, our identities get a little mixed up.
17. 1. Set Expectations
make sure the organization understands failures
2. Reduce the “Trickery”*
We build systems for humans.
They need to understand how the levers and knobs
affect the outcome
