INTERACTIVE AND CREATIVE AI

AI is fundamentally transforming how we interact with data, necessitating the parallel development of the fields of Human-Computer Interaction and User Experience. On one hand, challenges arise in ensuring Trustworthy and Explainable AI. For instance, there is the question of how to convey to the user the information and assumptions on which an AI bases its decisions, help the user understand what tasks fall outside the scope of the AI’s capabilities.

Another important question is human-AI teaming, which requires effective methods for interpreting and controlling semi-automatic systems. The context can be autonomous mining or forestry, but can also encompass gaming and media production workflows. To this end, we want to collaborate with international contacts acquired through the Gaming Stream, and with the researchers linked to WASP-HS. Arena members with specific expertise in this domain include Gustav Eje Henter and Konrad Tollmar. Relevant partners include Electronic Arts, King and Motorica with which we organize events and projects, including the GENEA Challenge.
