TDSM 12.9
From The Data Science Design Manual Wikia
An example of decision making where you would trust an algorithm to make as good or better decisions as a person: Hand-written recognition. By using neural network the accuracy of the state-of-the-art system for this task is far better than human.
For what tasks would you trust human judgment more than an algorithm? Tasks which input data is unstructured and is difficult to be digitalized. Example: making conviction decisions on the court based on collected evidence.
