SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algorithmic Steering and Advertising on Platforms.
DESCRIPTION:We analyze steering/self-preferencing by a retail platform\, using both economic theory and simulations of AI algorithms. When the platform does not sell advertising slots to merchants (which guarantee the merchant will be displayed to consumers)\, the platform has incentives to exclude merchants when its commission rate is in a lower range\, but not when its commission rate is higher. Facing the threat of not being displayed\, the merchant's optimal response is to raise its price on the platform\, so as to reduce the substitution threat it poses to the platform's own product. Thus\, even when the equilibrium outcome is for the merchant to be displayed\, the self-preferencing possibility raises overall prices and harms competition. We then introduce an advertising option\, and show that this can lead to lower prices while still ensuring the merchant is displayed to consumers. However\, the merchant need not gain from the introduction of advertising. Various extensions are considered.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit- Closer: A look at the tiny world around us
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an exhibit featuring the photography of Joseph Ferraro\, free and open to the public at Matthaei Botanical Gardens.\n\n \n\nBIO\n\nJoseph is a conservation photographer living and working in southeast Michigan. In 2014\, using macro photography to explore his backyard garden\, he unknowingly began walking a naturalist’s path and documenting native pollinators and invertebrates. His large format prints of local invertebrates are currently on exhibit outside of the Belle Isle Nature Center\, with other works on exhibit inside the Center. With them\, he seeks to inspire viewers to take a closer look at the tiny world around us.\n\n \n\nArtist Statement\n\nTo me\, the little things matter.\n\nThrough my work as a photographer\, I share the unseen and overlooked world of nature that surrounds us. My focus is exploring the world of invertebrates and showcasing these creatures in their natural habitat.\n\nMy creative process has evolved into a moving mediation\, as I Slow down to observe\, document and connect with my subjects as we interact in the environment. Ultimately\, I seek to capture the unique beauty of creatures not usually perceived as beautiful and aim to create images that evoke emotion and curiosity. In so doing I strive to raise awareness of the importance of these creatures in our world and dispel any fears the viewer may have.\n\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/josephferraro/\n\nWeb: https://www.joseph-ferraro.com
