Efficiency Rather Than Fairness Wins For AI Decision-Making

algoriAlgorithms are playing a bigger role in decisions that shape people’s lives, from pretrial release to bank loans. Critics argue that relying on algorithms locks in bias and sacrifices fairness. But when faced with a choice, people seem to value efficiency over fairness. In a study from UC Berkeley, 9,000 Americans were asked to choose between decision-makers for two tough calls: whether to grant bail and whether to approve a loan.

A recent study by the University of Geneva, in partnership with the UN Library and Archives in Geneva, highlights their impact.

Can Social Rejection Help Us To Learn?

Though painful, social rejection can teach us valuable lessons about relationships, according to a new study from USC. The research explores the brain mechanisms that shape how we form social connections, helping explain why we bond with some people, how we gauge others’ opinions of us, and what makes interactions feel rewarding or not—key questions for understanding mental health and social behavior. “While much of the focus has been on the emo…Read Article

The Hidden Costs of Borrowing from Family and Friends

When entrepreneurs lack the funds to launch their ventures, they often turn to the people closest to them—family and friends. This kind of support can seem ideal: the money is easier to access and comes with fewer strings attached than formal investments. But new research from Indiana University’s Kelley School of Business reveals a potential downside: borrowing from loved ones may lead entrepreneurs to play it too safe. Causing caution The stud…Bloomington, Indiana · Bloomington Read Article

The Ups and Downs of Sharing Employee Performance

More companies are sharing employee performance data among staff, hoping it will motivate people to improve. The idea is simple: when workers see how they stack up against their colleagues, they’ll reflect on their own work and make smarter choices. But is this approach actually effective? A new study from HEC Paris suggests it might not be so straightforward. In the study, participants were shown how a colleague performed compared to the averag…Paris, France · Paris Read Article
