Human-AI Interaction

Catalog description

AI systems do not exist in a vacuum; they exist in a human world. This course will examine human-AI interaction, spanning the gamut from how humans design AI systems, to how humans work with and alongside AI systems, to how AI systems affect human behaviors. Sometimes the AI systems under scrutiny will be embodied (robots!), sometimes not. The course will be both discussion and project based. As a final project, students will conduct a pilot study on human-AI interaction. This course is aimed at graduate students or others with interest in conducting human-AI interaction research. With perseverance and dedication, these course projects could be converted into conference papers at venues like AAAI, HRI, or NeurIPS.
