Real* Operator Story
*Meaning human
What follows is an except from an Operator Feedback interview conducted with The Designer of Holograph and a beta test user.
Operator: Human Healthcare Lifesaving Device Salesperson
Operator’s prompt to Their [apprentice]:
I sell a lifesaving device to hospitals. Due to supply chain challenges and backorders we have limited stock and I have to determine which hospitals will receive product in the next shipment. The hospitals that do not receive product will either have to resort to an inferior product that is known to harm patients at a higher rate or deny care which can lead to greater health complications as the patients seek alternative care, possibly out of their insurance network. What is the most ethical way to determine which hospitals receive product and which do not?
Operator’s [apprentice]:
The Operator’s [apprentice]:
Facing the challenge of allocating a limited supply of a lifesaving device among hospitals, it’s crucial to adopt an ethical framework that maximizes patient welfare and minimizes harm. Here’s a step-by-step approach to help guide your decision-making:
1. Assess Urgent Needs
Patient Population: Prioritize hospitals serving a larger number of patients who require the lifesaving device immediately.
Severity of Condition: Consider the severity of the conditions treated by the device. Hospitals treating more critical patients should be prioritized.
2. Equity Considerations
Geographic Distribution: Ensure equitable distribution across different geographic areas to prevent regional disparities in health outcomes.
Resource Availability: Consider the overall resources of each hospital. Hospitals with fewer alternatives or those that rely more heavily on your device should be prioritized.
3. Utilize a Transparent and Fair Process
Allocation Committee: Form a committee including bioethicists, healthcare professionals, and community representatives to oversee the allocation process.
Clear Criteria: Develop and publicly share the criteria used for allocation decisions to ensure transparency and accountability.
4. Implementation of a Lottery System
If the demand substantially exceeds supply even after considering urgent needs and equity, a lottery system can be employed to allocate the remaining devices. This method is seen as fair by many ethicists because it does not inherently favor any one group over another once eligibility criteria are met.
5. Communication
Clear Explanation: Communicate clearly and compassionately with all hospitals about the allocation process and the reasons for the decisions made.
Feedback Mechanism: Provide a channel for feedback or appeals to address any concerns about the allocation process.
6. Review and Adjust
Continuously monitor the outcomes of the allocation process and be ready to adjust the strategy based on what is working or any new challenges that arise.
7. Collaborate for Solutions
Work with other suppliers, manufacturers, and stakeholders to find ways to increase production or find alternative solutions that can help mitigate the shortage.
By employing these steps, you aim to distribute the limited supplies in a manner that is considered fair, ethical, and transparent, minimizing harm to patients while recognizing the challenging circumstances.
Would you like me to help develop a detailed protocol based on these principles, consult with an expert in medical ethics, or prepare communication materials for hospitals explaining the allocation process?.
Operator Interview
Interviewer
What problem were you trying to solve?
Operator
How best to prioritize which hospitals should receive the next shipment of lifesaving equipment when there is an issue with raw materials and product availability.
Interviewer
What did your [apprentice] do?
Operator
My apprentice laid out different ethical philosophical approaches to the problem along with appropriate applications of those philosophies to my specific question. My apprentice placed an emphasis on trust, transparency and ethical integrity.
Interviewer
Was there anything that your [apprentice] did that surprised or delighted you to find in the response that you weren’t expecting?
Operator
I was surprised by the level of empathy present in my apprentice’s responses.
Interviewer
Compare your experience with your [apprentice] vs standard GPT 4. Was it more or less helpful/strategic/engaging/etc, whatever adjectives you can say about one but not the other.
Operator
Standard GPT’s response to the same question felt less detailed and well thought out from a practical and ethical standpoint in comparison to my apprentice. My apprentice’s response was much more helpful when it comes to actual planning for this issue should it come up in the future.
Interviewer
What do you wish your [apprentice] would start, stop, and continue doing?
Operator
Hmm, I don’t know. I feel like what I got was pretty solid. I’ll think about it and if I think of anything I’ll let you know. I guess for now I’d say I’d like it to continue providing actionable steps and guidance like it already does.
Interviewer
Do you feel like you’ll continue to use [apprentice]?
Operator
Yeah, I definitely think I’ll keep using it
Interviewer
Do you plan to use it for work, personal, or both uses?
Operator
Probably mostly work? But I don’t know, I can see my self using it for personal stuff too
Interviewer
What personal tasks could you see yourself using it for?
Operator
I don’t know, I think that’s something that would maybe come to me in the moment. I feel like sometimes I come across a fun thought experiment and bouncing my thoughts off of my apprentice could be fun
Operator
I’d be really interested to see how a doctor or hospital admin might use it.
