Researchers have developed a new method using instrumental regression and the generalized method of moments (GMM) to address the challenge of moral hazard in policy-making with machine learning. This approach aims to help policymakers learn effective policies when individual actions cannot be perfectly observed. The study focuses on the multitasking principal-agent contract design problem and offers a characterization of optimal contracts. AI
