Call for Papers
AI is influencing how we think about, carry out, and achieve a variety of tasks. From systems that recommend what to watch next to assistants that help write scientific articles to military applications that identify targets to hit, AI is challenging what it means to be human.
This special issue invites papers on the broad theme of humans and AI working together. We are particularly interested in the following questions: How will humans interact with, use, and benefit from the AI systems of tomorrow? What are the challenges for today’s AI and humans to work together? Social constructs such as empathy and respect are cornerstone for human-to-human interactions. What are the social constructs for human-AI collaborations? How would we model and reason on them? Would existing social science and communication theories play a role in designing and realizing new generation human-AI collaboration? If so, what are methods to incorporate them into computational settings?
Topics of Interest include but not limited to: Models, methods, evaluation, and artifacts (such as testbeds and datasets) on
- Value-sensitive design and development of human-AI systems;
- Long-term human-AI collaboration, including sustainability and adaptation;
- Shared understanding (or misunderstanding) between humans and AI, e.g., how humans can navigate or even mislead AI (e.g., hiding information from AI);
- Positive (e.g., increased productivity) or negative (e.g., unemployment) impacts of human-AI systems;
- Usability, accessibility, adoptability, and inclusivity and human-AI systems;
- Ethical and social aspects of human-AI systems, including trust, fairness, explainability, and accountability.
