True to a point. However, that person doesn't necessarily know why a computer made a decision. The high dimensionality of these questions and decisions can be solved by programming, but the question and solution aren't completely understood. Thus, we enter the age of AI.
That doesn't change the fact that they're responsible for the outcome.
A reasonable metaphor is someone firing a gun in to the air: they can't claim not to be responsible for where the bullet lands despite having no real control over where it's coming down. If you don't want that responsibility don't pull the trigger.
Right, but that doesn't change the fact the stock market has changed from people taking careful aim before pulling the trigger, to a model where people are mostly looking where everybody else is firing, then firing in the same direction.
Yeah, a lot of people warn about the dangers of AI. And it's real - handing over decision making we don't understand to computers comes with real risks.
