    Study Notes

    AI and Happiness

    • AI's potential to improve happiness is complex and challenging, potentially still in progress by 2041
    • Defining happiness is complex, with many theories existing, such as Maslow's hierarchy of needs and Seligman's positive psychology
    • Measuring happiness is difficult due to its abstract, subjective, and individual nature
    • Data collection for AI happiness solutions requires extensive data, raising concerns about privacy and storage
    • GDPR aims to give people more control over their personal data, but it can be a hurdle to happiness-enhancing AI

    Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs

    • Represents a pyramid-shaped model showing human needs from basic to advanced
    • Basic needs (physiological, safety) must be met before higher-level needs are attainable
    • Happiness evolves as lower-level needs are addressed
    • The model depicts a spectrum from basic needs to self-actualization

    Hedonic vs. Eudaimonic Happiness

    • Hedonic happiness: Short-term pleasure and enjoyment, often tied to material wealth (e.g., possessions, possessions, recreation)
    • Eudaimonic happiness: Growth, meaning, and purpose, typically achieved at higher levels of Maslow's hierarchy
    • Eudaimonic happiness is sustainable and builds on the achievements of the lower levels in the hierarchy (e.g., self-actualization)

    AI Happiness Measurement

    • Direct questioning of people's happiness is a possible approach but has limitations in gauging happiness continuously
    • IoT devices & affective computing methods can capture facial expressions & voice to detect emotions in real-time, potentially increasing the effectiveness of happiness-measurement
    • Hormone levels & their correlations with happiness are valuable factors for gauging happiness levels, as measured through biosensors

    AI Concerns Regarding Data

    • AI needs considerable amounts of data for effective happiness-enhancing solutions
    • Privacy concerns and data security are vital issues relating to the collection, and use of personal data, which means that people may resist or halt such initiatives due to privacy concerns
    • GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) mandates transparency, accountability, and confidentiality in data usage, but can also impede AI functionality

    AI and Decentralization

    • Aggregation of personal data is crucial for AI improvement, evident in services from Google, Facebook, and others
    • The centralisation of data raises concerns about privacy and control over personal information, which may limit the development of AI happiness solutions
