Technology Speed Limits

Andrew Koh and Sivakorn Sanguanmoo

Papers from arXiv.org

Abstract: We study optimal technology regulation when private learning occurs both through doing (scaling up the technology) and through waiting (as time passes). We show that an adaptive speed limit -- a cap on the rate at which the technology can increase per-unit time -- delivers optimal worst-case guarantees over all learning processes and/or preferences, and is the only time-consistent mechanism that does so.
