Lately have been doing a lot of thinking and I don't really understand where to place this write-up in, whether it should be technical or something which eludicates to a general appeal so I am putting this in both channels.
Human level of intelligence is basically understood in terms of how the average person relates to his environment and reacts to his surroundings.
Many companies these days use data to harvest a pattern of behaviour from the human reaction - let's take an example -
The web is everyone's playground but silently behind the scenes there is someone watching how we are playing - you can translate it to our buying patterns, social interaction behaviour, reaction on non social but emotional or logical term, it's there - every time we click a 'like' button or react to a post there is a pattern positivity added to our profile, which might make us think we are writing our own stories with the endings that we want. Well, part of it is true but a part of it ain't very true or might be scary as well for people who consider rapid progress essential for human growth.
How? - well each time we click or react on the web we answer to an algorithm designed on a specific set of parameters - having a clear set of outcomes on the behavioural scale, the more truly we react, the more clearly our behaviour gets captured. Wherever there is a low probability & confusion on the established behaviour a superimposition to react to a different set of situations leading to a definite behaviour is triggered, in turn deciding very accurately what we like dislike and probably might like.
Now you might be thinking - well, how can this map be beneficial but before that - let's examine an algorithm that mankind has put in place unknowingly.
Let's consider the dating game - ever wondered if the sequence of events & the essential holidays of any country throughout the year, there is one thing common in all the holidays - a perception is geared to get you favourable conditions for finding your partner and settling down, it starts with the new year bash common for all, then comes valentines' day, summer - best time to experiment, goes into halloween and thanksgiving to get introduced to others in the family to Christmas, may be a time to settle down. It is seen each region of the world has holiday's which might be having similar cultural impact, so it all transforms into an algorithm, put in the right variables at the right time and you get the intended result.
Now let's come back to patterns which we were looking towards deciding a person's behaviour, at the end of the day - it's all business, the difference is how can we get anyone to buy a ten dollar ring at thousand dollars? if someone can know your behavioural reaction towards a product, they can gauge the pattern you prefer and in turn put the price, the challenge here is being satisfied with the pattern that we opt for - now that's where intelligence comes into picture. AI captures the results from your behaviour and puts in a different model so when someone is selling you shoes one day and clothes another day - they can know what kind of clothes you might want to go for. This is not the usual you bought something so you would get another one of the same sort - no - this is not capturing your product response but is essentially going into the root of your perception which decides your taste.
Now's what's the disadvantage here which currently most of the firms might not or might be ignoring, it's called the 'alice in wonderland paradox' - if alice is in wonderland all the time, she might start getting bored of the concept of wonderland, that's critical for anyone to understand - as that is criteria where now the balance of what you would have liked and what you might like has been lost, in other words - the common man just entered the confusional decision state, either that or they are enjoying the wonderland that is created, unless and until - the person has got reasoning to question the wonderland itself thus causing the creators to make a better wonderland.
The battle goes on and will go on... probably we will get better much better products but as decision makers and approvers, we always have a far greater capability to decision right now to create a better choice...
