Prediction or Causation? Towards a Redefinition of Task Controllability

Published on March 10, 2021

As research investigating controllability perception gains momentum, the algorithmic definition of controllability must be updated to avoid confusion between controllability and predictability. Reframing controllable environments as environments that allow agents to exert causal influences over state transitions can circumvent the confounding influence of predictability when designing cognitive tasks.
