Who Gets Paid When An AI Answers Your Question? | Parag Agrawal, Parallel Web Systems

Mathematical Methodology and Application - Shapley values provide a mathematical method to solve the distribution of collaborative output, addressing how to divide the larger pie created through teamwork [1] - Calculating Shapley values for human co-founders in equity distribution is practically unfeasible because it requires simulating all alternative collaboration realities that cannot be executed in most real-world scenarios [2] Technology and Evaluation - Machine learning models apply Shapley values effectively for feature importance by holding features back and running model performance simulations [3] - Web search systems assess quality and build training data by running simulations on agent performance without access to specific URLs, domains, or collections [3]
