@Mark__Lawrence I suppose it helps then to be a brilliant author. I have read many books, but the start of Red Sister is outstanding, the best I have ever read.
@siralexanderj To understand how good an AI assistant is, we need to consider what KIND of cognitive work it can do, and how MUCH of the total amount of work. For an example including six digital assistant concepts in the aviation domain, see https://t.co/QpXWxHJxT3
@SolipsisMatrix To be more precise - We need to consider, on the one hand how MUCH of human cognitive work it can do in a given context, and on the other hand what KIND of cognitive work it can do. Then we can (perhaps) worry. See https://t.co/QpXWxHJxT3
@ahall_research To figure out what kind of work that will be displaced, it might be useful to consider what KIND of cognitive/embodied work an AI can do - Combined with an consideration of how MUCH of that work will be moved to AI. AND, of how much of that AI work humans still need to monitor.
Beyond basic “Levels of Automation”: new LACC-LOA matrix asks what kind of cognitive work AI is doing (plans, goals, framing…).
Applied to aviation digital assistants — super useful for human-AI design in safety-critical domains.

All industries that (try to) use AI to achieve autonomous operations, use something called Levels-of-automation to determine the degree of autonomy.
BUT - All these “classic” approaches boil down to
the question “who’s in charge?” However, not every task is equally difficult to automate. We might also want to insert some human control of (potentially) autonomous operations. Therefore, going toward autonomy, we also have to ask “in charge of what?”
We have proposed a new way of describing both these dimensions, in a new paper "Levels of Autonomy in Cognitive Control (LACC-LOA): Bidimensional Assessment Method Applied to Six AI Assistant Concepts and Scenarios in the Aviation Domain"
Got this fine belt from Narragansett leathers. Thank's @dieworkwear for the tip. Surprisingly (to me) cheap for a hand made high quality belt, even considering import fees and shipping to EU.
@dieworkwear How about the Davek UK umbrellas, you don't mention them here? Got one when I needed something that could hold up to a bit of poor weather without falling apart at once. Are there better US options? (I am in the EU, so tax/import costs are about the same as for UK)
