AI in the human loop
Professionals are increasingly being supported by AI (Artificial Intelligence). But how do professionals experience this? What kind of support strengthens their profession and what do they not want? In this project, we investigate how different roles for AI (decision maker, advisor or knowledge source) are experienced by future professionals in preventive care.
Objective
With this project, we want to gain insight into how different forms of cooperation with AI affect the values of autonomy and trust among professionals. We want to translate these insights into forms of cooperation that reinforce the strengths of both professionals and AI.
"Collaboration between professional and AI can be very powerful if the values of the professional are respected."

Results
The intended result of this project is a set of concrete guidelines for the context-dependent design of human-AI collaborations that do justice to personal values.
Duration
01 April 2021 - 31 March 2022
Approach
We investigate different roles of AI by means of Wizard of Oz experiments. In these, allied health students perform a preventive health check using a simulated AI algorithm. We test the resulting guidelines in focus groups with healthcare professionals.
