pos: noun
tags: UK
examples: The tale of 'spreading jam'
A common problem is the way that businesses 'spread' their overhead costs across customers: that is, they spread them evenly, irrespective of the actual costs involved in dealing with different customers. They do the same when looking at product profitability, even at different business units — a laziness equally damaging to decision making. Take the following example of a company that talked itself out of business because of such 'jam spreading'. […]
175. Overman ( 2013) refers to the problem whereby political logic encourages a 'jam spreading' approach to the distribution of policy funds which then leads to fragmentation and a lack of resource concentration. […]
[…] and so levelling up is not a jam-spreading operation, it’s not robbing Peter to pay Paul, it's not zero sum it’s win win for the whole United Kingdom and so here is the plan for levelling up.

pos: adj

pos: adj
tags: alternative
Senses:
gloss: not agentic; that works without autonomy or self-determination.
pos: adj
examples: The difference is not, for instance, simply defined by human agency on one side and non-agentic causal relations on the other. Rather, differential degrees of agency are distributed across several force-fields, creating the need for subtle explorations of new 'nature/culture' imbrications in specific situations.
By attempting to construct the reality of these groups through basic demographics and limited statistics, programmes risk 'symptomizing' them, i.e., over-simplifying their situation, stereotyping, and minimizing their traits onto a negative spectrum; for example, symptomizing the poor as non-agentic, 'lazy', and 'un-resourceful'.
When people perceive the current political system as non-agentic, striving for change might indicate an effort of group-based control. This might well be the case in countries that strongly suffered the consequences of the 2008 economic crisis and struggled to overcome them.
The non-agentic explanatory models put the central focus on the causes behind our actions—what makes us act.
Accordingly, we propose as a core building block for further advances the development of a non-agentic AI system that is trustworthy and safe by design, which we call Scientist AI. This system is designed to explain the world from observations, as opposed to taking actions in it to imitate or please humans.
We distinguish between agentic systems (AI inspired by agency, often semi-autonomous, e.g., LLM-based agents), agential systems (fully autonomous, self-producing systems, currently only biological), and non-agentic systems (tools without the impression of agency).

All the researchers had to do, as lead author Fabio Urbina explained in an interview, was give a high reward score to toxicity instead of penalizing it. They wanted to teach AI to avoid toxic drugs, but in doing so, implicitly taught the AI how to create them.
The attempt to produce Luigis is what also produces the Waluigis. Without this, we wouldn’t even have a knowable Nintendo-esque character, but rather a swirling Lovecraftian horror

examples: For example, you might send a son or daughter to a story with the following insteuctions: "Get a loaf of bread, some milk and a dozen apples". You don't have any particular loaf of bread, carton(s) of milk or dozen apples in mind, so the nouns "bread", "milk" and "apples" do not refer to any particular items. Or you may use a noun in such a way that it cannot refer to an actual entity. This would be true in sentences such as "I don't have any milk" or "I wish you had some apples". In either way, we say the words "milk" and "apple" are non-referring.
