Detailed timetable
The workshop takes place on Tuesday, June 10th from 9am to 6pm.
The workshop will be structured in two parts and a final discussion. In the first part, the organizers will provide a short introduction on their specific understandings on Human-AI Reliance and Frictional AI, in the form of a traditional frontal lecture with slides. The second part will be constituted by the presentation of workshop abstracts submitted by the participants; a final round-table and wrap-up discussion among the participants and organizers will conclude the work of the workshop about what it means to have a quali-quantitative assessment of human reliance on AI, the promotion of cognitive engagement and bias avoidance, as to build a common understanding of these issues within the framework of Frictional AI for future research within the HHAI community.
