Freaky FrAIday Episode 8: Intelligence at the edge of uncertainty
During this session of the Learning Carousel Dr. Julia Heuritsch will go into the human perception, memory and decision making processes.
We criticise AI for making things up – while quietly ignoring that human perception, memory, and decision-making work the same way. This webinar challenges the assumption that hallucination is simply a bug to eliminate. Drawing on neuroscience and cognitive psychology, we'll explore how both artificial and human intelligence operate at the edge of uncertainty: predicting, interpolating, guessing. The real issue isn't that AI hallucinates. It's whether we use it as if it were an oracle.
Key take aways:
- The neuroscience behind why humans "hallucinate" reality
- How AI’s hallucinations mirror organisational culture
- How to recognise gap-filling in everyday decisions and conversations
- How to use AI as a thinking partner rather than an unquestioned authority
- The link between Scrum's empiricism and effective AI use
- How to foster a culture where "I don't know – let's inspect" is a strength, not a weakness
Julia wrote a blog about this subject which she will go into and discuss during this webinar.
