“The importance of ethical decision-making in the age of technology” is discussed in Shohini Kundu's thought-provoking TED Talk, which also illuminates how the power of observation has been used for centuries to make decisions. She takes us back to the roots of decision-making, citing hunting as an early example of humans relying on the power of observation and developing heuristics to make decisions that reduce harm. Kundu draws a comparison between these early heuristics and machine learning algorithms. She highlights the potential pitfalls of relying too heavily on machine learning and artificial intelligence. Kundu argues that while AI and machine learning are powerful tools, they are not foolproof and can be subject to biases and flaws in the data they are trained on.
