主 题:Organizational Structures for Effective Coordination of Human Learning and Machine Learning: An Agent-Based Simulation Study
报告人:Ning Nan (南宁), Associate Professor, University of British Columbia
内容摘要:
To contribute to organizational learning performance, machine learning (ML) systems can be centrally integrated as a global intelligent system, or less centrally as team members or personal assistants. We develop an agent-based model to study how the different ways to integrate ML into organizational structure affect organizational learning performance. We find that more centrally integrated ML tends to produce greater levels of knowledge initially because the ML system can rapidly exploit a broader range of diverse perspectives. However, less centrally integrated ML enhances long-term organizational learning performance because it sustains the exploration of diverse human beliefs. Our study further shows that in an organization with a given way of ML integration, how humans learn and what influence humans exert on ML systems can affect the highest achievable learning performance. Finally, we find that problem complexity and environmental turbulence are important contingencies in harvesting benefits from ML systems. Our study updates the theoretical guidance for the use of structural design as a coordination mechanism to balance knowledge exploitation and exploration in organizational learning. Our model bridges the enduring research on organizational structure and the emerging scholarship on ML. It provides a virtual lab for us and future research to untangle the tradeoff between ML capability and human belief diversity in the AI age.
