She also co-authored The Decision Intelligence Handbook (in press) with N. Malcolm. DI connects AI to human decision making in a way that is transparent, auditable, and accessible, bringing this important technology to the masses, and reducing "information inequality". With appearances on CSPAN, NPR, and many keynotes and podcasts, Pratt's work in AI and DI has broad implications for "wicked", invisible, exponential, multi-link problems whose mitigation or solutions depend on better decisions by billions of people; these include climate, poverty, security, and more.
