Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into the workplace, and with today’s workplace being structured around teams, the integration of AI and teams is a fairly new phenomenon that warrants further discovery. This Special Issue focuses on Human-AI (H-AI) teams. H-AI teams can be structured along a continuum, with full human control supplemented by AI technologies on one end, to having AI technologies having complete control over human teams.
This Special Issue particularly looks forward to articles presenting, among others, the following:
- New design principles and interaction strategies necessary to support H-AI teams.
- Empirical studies on H-AI teams.
- Techniques for supplementing AI technologies in human team interactions.
- Ethical issues that need to be addressed when integrating AI technologies with human teams.
- Impacts of different H-AI team interaction strategies.
- Explainable AI (XAI) techniques necessary to transfer data into information for H-AI teams when making decisions.
- Communication strategies for H-AI teams.
