[Hcitaly] CfP - Deadline approaching: CoPDA 2022 "Cultures of Participation in the Digital Age: AI for Humans or Humans for AI?"

--------------- Call for Papers --------------- CoPDA 2022 - 6th International Workshop on Cultures of Participation in the Digital Age: AI for Humans or Humans for AI? https://homes.di.unimi.it/cslab/copda2022/ June 7, 2022 - Frascati (Rome), Italy In conjunction with AVI 2022 (https://sites.google.com/di.uniroma1.it/avi2022) -------- Overview -------- This edition of the CoPDA workshop will be dedicated to discussing the current hype about Artificial Intelligence (AI) by contrasting it with the objectives pursued by Human-Centered Design (HCD). The workshop will establish a forum to explore our basic assumption (and to provide at least partial evidence) that the most successful AI systems out there today are dependent on teams of humans, just as humans depend on these systems to gain access to information, provide insights and perform tasks beyond their own capabilities. Recognizing that AI is today one of the “hottest” topics in large parts of the world, this CoPDA edition will reflect on the role of HCD in the AI age. Mainly, we are not interested in discussing the design of user interfaces of systems with AI features per se; rather, grounded in research activities from a broad spectrum of academic disciplines, from computer science to social science, this CoPDA workshop will critically analyze the current hype about AI by contrasting it with the objectives pursued by HCD, in order to investigate the impact on individuals, social groups, and society as a whole. More precisely, the workshop will explore the relationship between AI, aimed at replacing human beings, and Intelligence Augmentation (IA), focused on empowering human beings in their daily life and work. Balancing between these two perspectives means changing the research paradigm from traditional human-computer interaction, to designing the collaboration between humans and computers. This will foster creativity, meaningful work, intersubjectivity, and learning, and eventually improve the quality of life of individuals. However, a variety of issues and ethical problems need to be addressed in this new age – e.g., privacy intrusions, massive unemployment, knowledge and competence loss, lack of control, autonomous weapons, etc. The workshop organizers encourage researchers to submit position papers that will consider these aspects. In summary, the workshop will aim at discussing the importance of HCD in the AI Age by considering several topics including (but not limited to): - Collective human-centered design - Collaborative learning - Cultures of participation - Meaningful human control - Adaptive, Adaptable, and Context-Aware Systems - Distributed cognition - Tacit knowledge and meaning making - Multi-dimensional aspects of learning - Big data and privacy - Learning analytics - Human-machine teaming systems - Explainability of AI-based decisions - Evaluation of AI-based systems - End-User Development for AI-based systems ----------- Submissions ----------- Authors are invited to submit a 5-page position paper using the 1-column CEUR template available at http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip. An Overleaf page for LaTeX users is also available at https://www.overleaf.com/read/gwhxnqcghhdt The papers can be submitted at: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=copda2022 All papers will be peer-reviewed by at least two members of the Program Committee. Accepted papers will be collected and submitted for publication on CEUR-WS proceedings. --------------- Important dates --------------- - Mar 27th, 2022: Submission deadline for position papers - Apr 27th, 2022: Notification of acceptance - May 8th, 2022: Camera ready - Jun 7th, 2022: CoPDA 2022 workshop -------------------- Organizing Committee -------------------- Barbara Rita Barricelli (Università degli Studi di Brescia, Italy) Gerhard Fischer (University of Colorado, Boulder, USA) Daniela Fogli (Università degli Studi di Brescia, Italy) Anders Mørch (University of Oslo, Norway) Antonio Piccinno (Università degli Studi di Bari, Italy) Stefano Valtolina (Università degli Studi di Milano, Italy) For any further information, please contact copda2022(a)easychair.org *Barbara Rita Barricelli, PhD* Assistant Professor Department of Information Engineering Università degli Studi di Brescia http://barbara-barricelli.unibs.it <http://barbara-barricelli.unibs.it> -- Informativa sulla Privacy: https://www.unibs.it/it/node/1452 <https://www.unibs.it/it/node/1452>
