Abstract:Automated decision systems (ADS) leverage predictions about individual future outcomes to inform consequential decision-making in organizational settings. Across various settings - including criminal pretrial release, clinical triage, student support, and more - it is often assumed that improved predictive accuracy is the priority consideration in determining better downstream outcomes upon the deployment of ADS. In practice, real-world case studies reveal that this is far from the case: introducing individual predictions into decision-making modifies organizational workflows, assessment, and decision-making processes in ways that require a complete re-consideration of our approach to the design, evaluation, and deployment of ADS. As a result, this Perspective develops an integrated framework for studying ADS in social systems, shifting current priorities from a purely prediction-based paradigm towards an intervention-oriented view that accounts for real-world conditions. Our aim is to improve our understanding of ADS and more meaningfully anticipate its downstream societal and organizational consequences.
