The emerging concept of Human-Centred Artificial Intelligence (HCAI) involves amplifying, augmentation, empowering and enhancing individuals. HCAI aims to ensure that AI systems operate transparently, deliver fair and equitable outcomes, and respect privacy while preserving human control. This approach involves multiple stakeholders, such as researchers, developers, business leaders, policymakers, and users, who are affected in various ways by implementing and evaluating AI systems.
The primary focus of the First Workshop on User Perspectives in Human-Centred Artificial Intelligence (HCAI4U) is to examine the potential positive and negative impacts of automated decision-making systems on end-users and how human-centred aspects of reliability, safety, and trustworthiness influence their interaction with AI.
The goal of this workshop is to facilitate discussion and exchange of ideas within the community on advances in designing and implementing trustworthy, fair and privacy-preserving systems, as well as explainable user interfaces, with a specific focus on the users' perception in real-world scenarios rather than solely on the algorithmic and model performance.
HCAI4U aims to foster cross-disciplinary and interdisciplinary discussions between experts from various research fields, such as computer science, psychology, sociology, law, medicine, business, etc., to discuss problems and synergies in this exciting research topic.
