Sprecher: Prof. Marcus Pivato, Ph.D. (CAS Fellow/University Paris 1
Moderation: Prof. Dr. Christian List (LMU)
The economist Marcus Pivato is a Professor at the University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne and currently a Visiting Fellow at CAS. In his lecture he focuses on an interesting aspect of decision theory: Many decisions hinge upon technical questions on which most people lack the necessary expertise, for example: climate policies, pandemic response, macroeconomics and AI safety. Suppose that a decisionmaker must make a decision of this kind. Lacking the relevant expertise, she asks a panel of experts to assign probabilities to different scenarios. But these experts disagree with one another. What should the decision-maker believe in this situation?
Das Forschungskolloquium am CAS richtet sich vorrangig an Universitätsangehörige.
