Human Machine Interaction and Communication

Catalog description

This course explores the intricacies of communication between humans and machines, focusing on how artificial intelligence (AI) understands, interprets, and responds to human input. Beyond one-way communication, we will examine how human-machine-human communication evolves in an increasingly networked society, covering cutting-edge developments in AI-driven interfaces and conversational systems. Ethical considerations form a core part of the course, prompting students to grapple with the social and moral implications of these emerging technologies. The course culminates in a hands-on project where students will design and implement an AI communication system, gaining experience with real-world applications while addressing the critical need for ethical frameworks. Whether you're interested in designing future conversational AI, understanding human behavior in digital interactions, or exploring ethical AI, this course invites you to the frontier of human-machine dialogue.
