HUMAN
PRODUCT
Are bodies & brains just another product?
What we’ve learned… is that
we need to take a more
proactive role in a broader
view of our responsibility. It’s
not enough to just build tools,
we need to make sure that
they’re used for good
What is Behavioral Big Data (BBD)
Special type of Big Data
Behavioral: people’s actions, reactions, interactions,
self-reported opinions, thoughts, feelings
Human and social connectivity: Intention,
deception, emotion, reciprocation, herding,…
Awareness of data collection -> modify behavior
(legal risks, embarrassment, unwanted solicitation)
BBD vs.
Medical
Big Data
• Individual bodies
• Physical measurements
• Medical systems set
data collection timing
• Clinical trials:
awareness & vested
interest
• Collection of connected people
• Measurable behaviors: actions,
interactions, self-reported
feelings, opinions, thoughts
• User chooses data generation
timing
• Experiments: users unaware; not
always in user’s best interest
Getting
Closer
More and more human and
social activities are measured
Most companies that have BBD were not
created for the purpose of generating BBD
3 important points
Data regulation & ethical
standards lagging behind
Who has BBD?
On whom?
For what purpose?
The “Old Guard”
Governments
law enforcement, security, traffic, taxation
Financial Institutions
fraud, loans
Telecoms
fraud, infrastructure, marketing
Retail Chains
marketing, operations, merchandising
Insurance
set premiums
Technologies
Cameras
Sensors
IT systems (POS, calls,…)
New Technologies
GPS
Internet
Mobile
Social
Things
BBD on Customers
(you!)
Retail & insurance adopt
military technologies
http://fortune.com/2015/11/09/wal-mart-facial-recognition/
BBD on Employees
(you!)
Workplaces track BBD
(beyond security reasons)
“Surveillance at work is
nothing new... But AI makes
ubiquitous surveillance
worthwhile, because every bit
of data is potentially valuable.
Few laws govern how data
are collected at work, and
many employees unguardedly
consent to surveillance when
they sign their employment
contract. Where does all this
lead?”
New players in the BBD field
On-ground SMEs
Academic researchersOnline/mobile platforms
Data brokers
Individuals
IoT companies
Hackers
Online/mobile Platforms
gaming & movies,
search, social media,
retail, messaging,
shared economy,
dating, news, MOOCs,
collaboration software

Use BBD to
personalize,
improve
product/service,
advertising,
marketing,
logistics &
operations
Small & Medium (On-Ground) Organizations
schools, cafes,
restaurants,
parking lots,
cinemas, gyms,
hospitals,
museums,
libraries Use BBD to
personalize
improve product/service

Computational
Social Science
Use BBD to
answer old and
new scientific
questions
Emotional Contagion in Social Networks
Kramer et al.
Proc of the National Academies of Sciences, 2014
• Can emotional states be transferred to
others via emotional contagion?
• Age-old question, now testable
• Large-scale experiment run by FB,
manipulating users’ exposure level to
emotional expressions in their Facebook
News Feed
Anonymous Browsing in Dating Websites
Bapna, Ramaprasad, Shmueli, Umyarov
Management Science, 2016
• How does anonymous browsing affect
outcomes on dating sites?
• Questions about human behavior due to
new technologies
• Large-scale experiment on US dating
website

NONE
Forecasting Elections with Non-Representative Polls
Wang et al., 2014, Intl. Journal on Forecasting
• Can elections be forecast using a non-representative
sample?
• Survey BBD from Xbox with built-in daily poll
Individuals
Despite intentionally turning off my phone
Bluetooth right after synching the band's data every day
(which means the device should not be able to connect to
my phone, or the cloud), the device and my phone
did continue having secret "conversations". I
discovered this when my band vibrated on incoming phone
calls when Bluetooth was turned off. This happened on
multiple occasions. I am not sure what part of the
technology chain to blame - my Samsung
phone? the Android operating system? the Mi
Band?
Data
Brokers
The FTC’s Jon Leibowitz described data brokers
as the “unseen cyberazzi who collect
information on all of us”
Use of BBD:
sell to others
Hackers Hackers
More and more human and
social activities are measured
Most companies that have BBD were not
created for the purpose of generating BBD
3 important points
Data regulation & ethical
standards lagging behind
Recent data privacy regulations might
reshape the collection & use of BBD
Why regulation?

“There’s a need for an ethical
code to guides AI
development”
the most crucial choices about the future of ordinary voters and
their children are probably made not by Brussels bureaucrats or
Washington lobbyists but by engineers, entrepreneurs, and
scientists who are hardly aware of the implications of their
decisions, and who certainly don’t represent anyone.
Why should quality engineers care about BBD?
Advances in Technology generate/use BBD
Fully automated
(AI) solutions
Micro-level recording of
human and social behavior
Because you are (and should be) involved in all of these!
Data Privacy
Regulation
Standards
Users voluntarily
provide BBD (UGC)
personal details,
photos,
comments,
messages,
search terms,
bids in auctions,
likes,
payment info,
connections
with “friends”
Install AppConnect smart device
Users agree to provide their BBD
Send crash data
But don’t anticipate
some of its uses
Users provide BBD
unknowingly
Microsoft Xbox 360 comes with a
microphone, a camera and technology
that recognizes a user's voice and face
• sign in and sign off
• games you played
• game-score statistics
• Xbox console hardware & operating performance data
• manufacturing codes from game discs
• network performance data
• data that indicates the quality of the Xbox service
to prevent cheating
• IP address
• operating system
• Xbox Live software version
to improve your experience
• Bing search terms
• samples of voice commands to perform search
• what you watched on Xbox One’s TV service
• music & videos you watched or listened to using Xbox

Behavioral Big Data: Why Quality Engineers Should Care

  • 1. Behavioral Big Data: Why Quality Engineers Should Care Galit Shmueli
  • 2. PhD in Statistics, Technion IE&M CMU Statistics Dept U of Maryland Business School Indian School of Business National Tsing (“Ching”) Hua U, Service Science
  • 4. ‫שסביבנו‬ ‫העולם‬ ‫את‬ ‫לשנות‬ ‫איך‬ ‫ידענו‬ ‫היום‬ ‫עד‬, ‫שבתוכנו‬ ‫העולם‬ ‫את‬ ‫לא‬ ‫אבל‬. ‫הקרובים‬ ‫בעשורים‬ ‫אבל‬,‫והביוטכנולוגיה‬ ‫המלאכותית‬ ‫הבינה‬ ‫לשנות‬ ‫להתחיל‬ ‫בהיסטוריה‬ ‫הראשונה‬ ‫בפעם‬ ‫לנו‬ ‫יאפשרו‬ ‫שבתוכנו‬ ‫העולם‬ ‫את‬ ‫משמעותי‬ ‫באופן‬.‫איך‬ ‫נלמד‬ ‫אנחנו‬ ‫שלנו‬ ‫והמוח‬ ‫הגוף‬ ‫את‬ ‫מחדש‬ ‫להנדס‬,‫הקוד‬ ‫את‬ ‫לשכתב‬ ‫איך‬ ‫שלנו‬ ‫הגנטי‬,‫למחשבים‬ ‫מוחות‬ ‫ישירות‬ ‫לחבר‬ ‫ואיך‬.‫כתוצאה‬ ‫מכך‬,‫ה־‬ ‫במאה‬ ‫הכלכלה‬ ‫של‬ ‫העיקריים‬ ‫המוצרים‬21‫יהיו‬ ‫רכב‬ ‫כלי‬ ‫רק‬ ‫ולא‬ ‫ומוחות‬ ‫גופים‬ ‫הנראה‬ ‫ככל‬,‫ומזון‬ ‫בגדים‬. HUMAN PRODUCT Are bodies & brains just another product?
  • 5. What we’ve learned… is that we need to take a more proactive role in a broader view of our responsibility. It’s not enough to just build tools, we need to make sure that they’re used for good
  • 6. What is Behavioral Big Data (BBD) Special type of Big Data Behavioral: people’s actions, reactions, interactions, self-reported opinions, thoughts, feelings Human and social connectivity: Intention, deception, emotion, reciprocation, herding,… Awareness of data collection -> modify behavior (legal risks, embarrassment, unwanted solicitation)
  • 7. BBD vs. Medical Big Data • Individual bodies • Physical measurements • Medical systems set data collection timing • Clinical trials: awareness & vested interest • Collection of connected people • Measurable behaviors: actions, interactions, self-reported feelings, opinions, thoughts • User chooses data generation timing • Experiments: users unaware; not always in user’s best interest
  • 9. More and more human and social activities are measured Most companies that have BBD were not created for the purpose of generating BBD 3 important points Data regulation & ethical standards lagging behind
  • 10. Who has BBD? On whom? For what purpose?
  • 11. The “Old Guard” Governments law enforcement, security, traffic, taxation Financial Institutions fraud, loans Telecoms fraud, infrastructure, marketing Retail Chains marketing, operations, merchandising Insurance set premiums Technologies Cameras Sensors IT systems (POS, calls,…) New Technologies GPS Internet Mobile Social Things
  • 12. BBD on Customers (you!) Retail & insurance adopt military technologies
  • 14.
  • 15. BBD on Employees (you!) Workplaces track BBD (beyond security reasons)
  • 16. “Surveillance at work is nothing new... But AI makes ubiquitous surveillance worthwhile, because every bit of data is potentially valuable. Few laws govern how data are collected at work, and many employees unguardedly consent to surveillance when they sign their employment contract. Where does all this lead?”
  • 17.
  • 18.
  • 19. New players in the BBD field On-ground SMEs Academic researchersOnline/mobile platforms Data brokers Individuals IoT companies Hackers
  • 20. Online/mobile Platforms gaming & movies, search, social media, retail, messaging, shared economy, dating, news, MOOCs, collaboration software Use BBD to personalize improve product/service detect fraud advertising marketing logistics & operations
  • 22.
  • 23.
  • 24. Small & Medium (On-Ground) Organizations schools, cafes, restaurants, parking lots, cinemas, gyms, hospitals, museums, libraries Use BBD to personalize improve product/service detect fraud advertising marketing logistics & operations
  • 25. Researchers Researchers with social science + technical backgrounds Information Systems Marketing Computational Social Science Use BBD to answer old and new scientific questions
  • 26. Emotional Contagion in Social Networks Kramer et al. Proc of the National Academies of Sciences, 2014 • Can emotional states be transferred to others via emotional contagion? • Age-old question, now testable • Large-scale experiment run by FB, manipulating users’ exposure level to emotional expressions in their Facebook News Feed
  • 27. Anonymous Browsing in Dating Websites Bapna, Ramaprasad, Shmueli, Umyarov Management Science, 2016 • How does anonymous browsing affect outcomes on dating sites? • Questions about human behavior due to new technologies • Large-scale experiment on US dating website Profile Visit Recent visitor: NONE
  • 28.
  • 29. Forecasting Elections with Non-Representative Polls Wang et al., 2014, Intl. Journal on Forecasting • Can elections be forecast using a non-representative sample? • Survey BBD from Xbox with built-in daily poll
  • 31. Despite intentionally turning off my phone Bluetooth right after synching the band's data every day (which means the device should not be able to connect to my phone, or the cloud), the device and my phone did continue having secret "conversations". I discovered this when my band vibrated on incoming phone calls when Bluetooth was turned off. This happened on multiple occasions. I am not sure what part of the technology chain to blame - my Samsung phone? the Android operating system? the Mi Band?
  • 32. Data Brokers The FTC’s Jon Leibowitz described data brokers as the “unseen cyberazzi who collect information on all of us” Use of BBD: sell to others
  • 34. More and more human and social activities are measured Most companies that have BBD were not created for the purpose of generating BBD 3 important points Data regulation & ethical standards lagging behind
  • 35. Recent data privacy regulations might reshape the collection & use of BBD
  • 37. "‫את‬ ‫שינחה‬ ‫אתי‬ ‫בקוד‬ ‫צורך‬ ‫יש‬ ‫המלאכותית‬ ‫הבינה‬ ‫פיתוח‬. ‫שאינו‬ ‫בתחום‬ ‫פיתוח‬ ‫כמעט‬ ‫אין‬ ‫מוסריות‬ ‫שאלות‬ ‫איזשהן‬ ‫מעלה‬". “There’s a need for an ethical code to guides AI development”
  • 38. the most crucial choices about the future of ordinary voters and their children are probably made not by Brussels bureaucrats or Washington lobbyists but by engineers, entrepreneurs, and scientists who are hardly aware of the implications of their decisions, and who certainly don’t represent anyone.
  • 39. Why should quality engineers care about BBD? Advances in Technology generate/use BBD Fully automated (AI) solutions Micro-level recording of human and social behavior Because you are (and should be) involved in all of these! Data Privacy Regulation Standards
  • 40. Users voluntarily provide BBD (UGC) personal details, photos, comments, messages, search terms, bids in auctions, likes, payment info, connections with “friends”
  • 41. Install AppConnect smart device Users agree to provide their BBD Send crash data
  • 44. Microsoft Xbox 360 comes with a microphone, a camera and technology that recognizes a user's voice and face • sign in and sign off • games you played • game-score statistics • Xbox console hardware & operating performance data • manufacturing codes from game discs • network performance data • data that indicates the quality of the Xbox service to prevent cheating • IP address • operating system • Xbox Live software version to improve your experience • Bing search terms • samples of voice commands to perform search • what you watched on Xbox One’s TV service • music & videos you watched or listened to using Xbox Live
