We have a political environment that lacks credible independent commentators (e.g. Walter Cronkite), so anyone presenting themselves as independent who calls bullshit on a politico is immediately labeled as biased.
What mechanism do you think could overcome this and pull the mic plug to reduce the incentive to lie without immediately being vigorously attacked?
Pretty vague question.
One assumption that “mathy types” like to make is that the slope be negative-proportional to how far the value (not slope) is from the desired target value… and then you get an exponential decay (buzzword). But there are lots of other assumptions one could make… some of which lead to PID control (buzz; very mathy stuff).
But these days you could use a neural net (buzz; so mathy they don’t usually pretend to understand what the NN “learns”) or fuzzy logic (buzz; which is ideally intuitive but has many surprisingly mathy assumptions) to make the behavior nonlinear and go to the desired result much faster… so really, there are many many possible answers. Maybe you can watch some ELI5 videos about these buzzwords and refine your question?
