Towards Trustworthy Human-Machine Collaboration

Speaker: Amir-Hossein Karimi

Location: On-Line

Date: Monday, April 17, 2023

Advancements in technology such as the keyboard, mouse, touch-screens, voice-based communication, and today: data-enable interfaces (e.g., ChatGPT) have enabled more natural forms of interaction between humans and machines.
 
Despite seemingly magical experiences, many questions remain open:
* How does one recover from, or overturn, poor experiences via decisions made by AI?
* How does one assay the safety, factuality, and ethics of AI systems to foster trust in AI?
* How does one design systems that make use of the best of human and machine abilities?
 
I argue that the next logical step, and the solution to all these questions, is to continue the line of development above, and facilitate even more interaction, discussion, and communication between humans and intelligent agents with the ultimate goal of “intelligence augmentation” via “trustworthy human-machine collaboration.”
 
In this talk, I will describe efforts made to address these questions, as well as plans for future research.
