Title

Intelligent agents create dumb users (?)

Source

Online and CD-ROM review. 21(1997) no.6, S.369-372

Year

Abstract

Considers the possible future role of intelligent agents as filters for the flow of unstructured information and as a means of providing users with personalized information services which could act as a substitute for function currently performed in society by newspapers. Concludes that many of the arguments, used to support the idea that the drive to create intelligent agents are user driven, are flawed and that the drive is market driven
