Human-centered AI - building AI systems people can understand and trust webinar
Artificial intelligence is increasingly shaping how people work, make decisions, and interact with information across healthcare, government, workplaces, and everyday digital systems. As these technologies become more integrated into daily life, questions around transparency, trust, and human oversight continue to grow in importance.In this HUP webinar, Dr. Harmanpreet Kaur will share insights from her research on human-centered artificial intelligence and explainable AI. The presentation will explore how people understand and interact with AI systems, why many AI explanations fail to support meaningful decision-making, and how social, cognitive, and organizational factors influence trust in automated systems. Dr. Kaur will also discuss approaches for designing AI tools that better support collaboration between people and intelligent technologies.
This webinar will be of interest to public sector professionals, researchers, technology practitioners, policymakers, healthcare leaders, and others interested in responsible and human-centered approaches to artificial intelligence.
