<\/p>\nJ. R. Schoenherr, R. Abbas, K. Michael, P. Rivas and T. D. Anderson, “Designing AI Using a Human-Centered Approach: Explainability and Accuracy Toward Trustworthiness,” in IEEE Transactions on Technology and Society, vol. 4, no. 1, pp. 9-23, March 2023, doi: 10.1109\/TTS.2023.3257627<\/a>.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The Essence of the Special Issue<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This special issue comprises eight thought-provoking papers that collectively address the multifaceted nature of AI. The journey begins with a reconceptualization of AI, leading to discussions on the pivotal role of explainability and accuracy in AI systems. The papers emphasize that designing AI with a human-centered approach while recognizing the importance of ethics is not a zero-sum game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Highlights<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Reconceptualizing AI:<\/strong> Clarke, a Fellow of the Australian Computer Society, revisits the original conception of AI and proposes a fresh perspective, emphasizing the synergy between human and artifact capabilities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. The Challenge of Explainability:<\/strong> Adamson, a Past President of the IEEE\u2019s Society on the Social Implications, delves into the complexities of AI systems, highlighting the concealed nature of many AI algorithms and the need for post-hoc reasoning.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Trustworthy AI:<\/strong> Petkovic underscores that trustworthy AI requires both accuracy and explainability. He emphasizes the importance of explainable AI (XAI) in ensuring user trust, especially in high-stakes applications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Bias in AI:<\/strong> A team of researchers, including Nagpal, Singh, Singh, Vatsa, and Ratha, evaluates the behavior of face recognition models, shedding light on potential biases related to age and ethnicity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. AI in Healthcare:<\/strong> Dhar, Siuly, Borra, and Sherratt discuss the challenges and opportunities of deep learning in the healthcare domain, emphasizing the ethical considerations surrounding medical data.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. AI in Education:<\/strong> Tham and Verhulsdonck introduce the “stack” analogy for designing ubiquitous learning, emphasizing the importance of a human-centered approach in smart city contexts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Ethics in Computer Science Education:<\/strong> Peterson, Ferreira, and Vardi discuss the role of ethics in computer science education, emphasizing the need for emotional engagement to understand the potential impacts of technology.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    A Call to Action<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    As guest editors deeply engaged in human-centric approaches to AI, we challenge all stakeholders in the AI design process to consider the multidimensionality of AI. It’s crucial to move beyond the trade-offs mindset and prioritize accuracy and explainability. If a decision made by an AI system cannot be explained, especially in critical sectors like finance and healthcare, should it even be proposed?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This special issue is a testament to the importance of ethics, accuracy, explainability, and trustworthiness in AI. It underscores the need for a human-centered approach to designing AI systems that benefit society.
