Harrison Chase
Encyclopedic article (Wikipedia, English) on **Goodhart's law**: stated by British economist Charles Goodhart in 1975 regarding monetary policy — "any observed statistical regularity tends to collapse once pressure is placed upon it for control purposes" — then generalized by anthropologist Marilyn Strathern (1997) into the canonical aphorism "when a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure." The subject connects economics, incentive theory, public policy evaluation and, by extension, metric optimization in AI systems.
