Designing AI that extends human capabilities

Carly Kind, Director, Ada Lovelace Institute Aleks Berditchevskaia, Senior Researcher, CCID, Nesta Karina Vold Postdoctoral Research Associate, Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence, Faculty of Philosophy, University of Cambridge Julien Cornebise, Honorary Associate Professor, University College London Marco Marchesi, CTO, Happy Finish Our panelists discuss some of the challenges and opportunities around combining AI and human intelligence, share concrete examples, and uncover nascent opportunities in that field. They explore questions like what AI that extends human capabilities beyond what is possible today looks like, what effective AI use in CI context means, and how AI is engineering us, while we are engineering AI. Drawing on their expertise as engineers, philosophers, researchers, and creatives, they talk about the need for the discourse to move away from tech-first, and how AI offers possibilities to not just improve efficiency, but also to discover new patterns and help people improve human understanding.
