Abstract

There are many occasions in which we discover ourselves willing to pay third parties to help us make better decisions or to "force" us to change certain habits. Even when it's not even clear that their decisions or methodologies are better than ours. Using the smartphone to design a "decision architecture" that benefits us is not only possible but very easy to do. Techno humanists have this question: Would we be safer in terms of efficiency in the hands of automatic systems, if security and transparency is guaranteed? This article aims to answer this question.
