Mediator.ai

definitely a great use of LLMs

Brilliant idea. Congratulations, and good luck.

John Nash's ideas are still relevant today - highlights how great he was - I liked how you used a genetic algorithm here!

Mediator here. This comes from a fundamental misunderstanding of what mediation is for. Mediation is about helping the disputants find a solution they can live with, but…

/Agree As a long time techie I understand the desire to approach mediation as a programmatic systems problem, but as a mediator, I'd recommend OP work as a volunteer mediator…

Feels like the tricky part here isn’t computing a “fair” outcome, but defining what fairness even means in the first place. Once you formalize preferences into something…

This doesn't seem to have any notion of power? Coming up with a fair agreement between people who have equal power over the thing they care equally about, isn't that hard. But…

Interesting idea for sure. I am just thinking, intuitively couldn't I 'game' the mediator by overstating my preference and requirements to achieve a more favorable outcome?

Honestly I’m on Daniel’s side - they agreed on a 50/50 split, and they’ve both been working their asses off to make the business work. It’s an arrangement that clearly both of…

Yeah I also don't quite understand the example on the homepage... they agreed to 50/50 and then she wanted 70/30 so now they settle on 60/40? Like this doesn't seem like a "fair"…

The bakery example is interesting, because it's presented as "both sides have been working on this thing and think they should get 50%"... and then the _solution_ is "A path back…

Great idea though I am skeptical it will be adopted in contentious situations without some sort of stick. In amorphous situations where there is just high trust but an aversion…

I like the idea and signed up, but the first thing I see is a prompt to purchase credits. I don't have a use-case to try this now, so I won't be using the service again, however…

How about Iran/US conflict ? or Israel/Palestine conflict ? Is anyone working on this ? seems like a big win for AI if it can be done.

Very interesting! For limitations, I'd add stated vs revealed preference. Currently the system assumes than what people say is what they actually prefer, but that's not always…

I think this is very useful. I wonder if you have people that actually used in difficult situations? maybe family separations or challenging stuff like that, where I see a lot of…

Super interesting, thank you for sharing! I have published some research on using LLMs for mediation here: https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.16732 and https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.07053…

You might try Decisionlayer.ai We built a way to make contracts enforceable and resolve disputes without the high cost of litigation. Specifically, by adding our arbitration…

I built https://andshake.app to prevent the need for conflict resolution… by getting things clear up front. I agree that AI has much to offer in low-stakes agreements to help…
