Description
The current suite of software tools for managing space debris at ESA (MASTER, DRAMA) were conceived some decades ago, when the statistical approach to uncertainty in science dominated.
Since that time, the discipline of causal science has made great strides as a tool for uncertainty management and policy optimisation. Causal science is often preferred over statistical approaches in the domain of strategy making and policy creation, since the work of strategy formulation is inherently causal. That is to say, in strategy work we seek to calculate which events we should cause to product optimal effects (beneficial effects such as safety and profitability).
In this talk, we explore an exciting future where the existing suite of management tools are augmented by, or replaced by, software that uses causal approaches and causal Agent-Based Artificial Intelligence.
