From IEEE Spectrum, an interesting analysis of how AIs make mistakes, as do humans, but because the AI mistakes differ from human mistakes, the expectations we have and the infrastructure we’ve created to recognize, reduce, and correct for human mistakes doesn’t fit AIs as well. We’re actually pretty good at dealing with mistakes — to work with AIs we need to change our expectations and update our mistake-oriented infrastructure.
