Description

AI/ML/Data science are about to change significantly the future workplace, leading to new challenges and threats.

This CUSO doctoral school aims at discussing the impact of AI/ML on the future of work from two perspectives:

  • Designing of AI/ML-based solutions for the future workplace: digital assistants, new forms of collaboration between humans and machines, etc.
  • Understanding the acceptance and adoption of AI/ML in the future workplace: individual and organizational routines, acceptance and adoption of AI/ML in the workplace

Target group will be PhD students and post doctoral researchers from different disciplinary backgrounds, including information systems, human-computer interaction, computer science, etc.
