About the lab

The lab highlights the importance of prioritizing human needs, capabilities, and limitations when adopting artificial intelligence (AI) in the workplace, as it shapes the lives of workers and the nature of their workload and/or workflow. The lab promotes a human-centered systems approach to AI and advocates for the associated visions, ideas, and stories. With a particular interest in providing cognitive support to humans with different levels of expertise, experience, and bias, the lab aims to generate, explore, and test ideas to achieve the full potential of human-AI teams. In doing so, the lab focuses on the interaction between humans and AI as a lens to investigate their cognitive collaboration and decision-making as a team. The lab utilizes mixed methods to collect and analyze such interaction data, often represented as behavioral, physiological, and neurological changes under high-fidelity scenarios, while leveraging context-specific tools built with emerging technologies.
