3 The Autonomous Choice Architect

DOI: 10.1201/9781003203315-4

Introduction

I have now outlined all but one of the concepts which are needed to discuss this chapter’s subject, the autonomous choice architect. The missing concept – choice architecture – is what I will turn to first in this chapter.

Choice architecture describes the environment in which choices are presented to decision-makers or the design of those presentations (Hausman and Welch, 2010; Thaler, Sunstein, and Balz, 2012). One popular example of choice architecture is the arrangement of food items within a cafeteria (Thaler, Sunstein, and Balz, 2012). Others include changing default options (Jachimowicz et al., 2019; Johnson and Goldstein, 2003; Madrian and Shea, 2001)1
