Causal AI & Individual Treatment Effects | Scott Mueller Ep. 20 | CausalBanditsPodcast.com
Manage episode 430207385 series 3526805
Can we say something about YOUR personal treatment effect?
The estimation of individual treatment effects is the Holy Grail of personalized medicine.
It's also extremely difficult.
Yet, Scott is not discouraged from studying this topic.
In fact, he quit a pretty successful business to study it.
In a series of papers, Scott describes how combining experimental and observational data can help us understand individual causal effects.
Although this sounds enigmatic to many, the intuition behind this mechanism is simpler than you might think.
In the episode we discuss:
๐น What made Scott quit a successful business he founded and study causal inference?
๐น How a false conviction about his own skills helped him learn? ๐น What are individual treatment effects?
๐น Can we really say something about individual treatment effects?
Ready to dive in?
