Big Questions // Research Agenda - 05/29

[nniiicc]

Let's plan a future meeting where you prepare:

1. Sketch of research agenda (I am an X I do Y) - this should be at a high level
2. Big questions - what are the things we don't know about empirically, conceptually, and theoretically in your research agenda
3. Study fit - how is the ongoing work you are doing contributing (even in small ways) to the big questions

We can workshop most of this - but a solid first draft in the form of either a written document (for 1 and 2) and a spreadsheet for 3 would be best

@lindsey --> make sure to tie in a high-priority project wrt to:

• robotics (in restaurant industry)
• AI
• TNC & auto taxis
  • same data used to set these new things up - esp in fairfare
  • Tesla already sells a monthly subscription for a system it calls Supervised Full Self-Driving to owners of its electric vehicles. -- you can subscribe to a beta test???
  • Zoox, Robotaxi, Cruise, Waymo
• work and ubi (displacement of a certain class of workers) -
  • two large-scale experiments - the results are interesting - some aspects were positive
