Human-Centered AI

In the rapidly evolving era of artificial intelligence (AI), the ways humans interact with AI systems have undergone fundamental transformation, giving rise to a new interdisciplinary fieldâ"Human-AI Interaction. This represents a paradigm shift beyond the traditional field of Human-Computer Interaction, demanding innovative approaches to address the unique challenges introduced by AI. This book, Human-Centered AI: Advancing Research and Applications in Human-AI Interaction, explores the latest theories, methods, and practices of Human-AI Interaction through the distinctive lens of Human-Centered AI (HCAI). As both a design philosophy and a methodological framework, HCAI places humans at the core of AI development by emphasizing human needs, values, ethics, controllability, capabilities, and experiences. Its goal is to ensure that AI systems empower and augment humans rather than replace or harm them. Positioning Human-AI Interaction within the broader HCAI paradigm, this book advances research and applications in human-AI interaction aimed at realizing HCAIâs goals. Across 27 chapters covering foundational concepts, technologies, research methods, design methods and standards, modeling, and real-world practice in Human-AI Interaction, this book demonstrates how AI can be seamlessly integrated with human needs to create intelligent, ethical, controllable, and user-friendly systems. Through detailed analysis and empirical studies, we aim to equip readers with theoretical frameworks and practical methodologies to create more human-centered AI solutions in an increasingly complex AI landscape. Whether you are a scholar, designer, or industry practitioner, this book will inspire you and enrich your knowledge, empowering you to advance the development of AI while better serving humanity.
