AI Shift and Defining Objectives
- AI shifted in the 1990s from brittle, hand-coded expert systems to machine learning from data.
- The bigger challenge now is defining what objectives AI systems should optimize, especially balancing trade-offs in real-world decisions.
Human-Controlled AI Automation
- AI should complement human abilities, filling gaps rather than replacing humans.
- People should control the level of automation they want instead of being forced to disappear from the process.
Essence of Human-Centered AI

- Including diverse perspectives from the start improves fairness and reduces bias in AI.
