-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] HICSS-55 Call for papers for the mini-track on: "AI and the Future of Work" Date: Mon, 29 Mar 2021 15:12:36 +0000 From: De Vreede, Triparna <tdevreede(a)usf.edu> To: De Vreede, Triparna <tdevreede(a)usf.edu> HICSS-55 Call for papers for the mini-track on: "AI and the Future of Work" Part of the Collaboration Systems and Technologies Track of the Fifty-Fifth Annual Hawai'i International Conference on Systems Sciences (HICSS) Maui, HI - January 4-7, 2022 Developments in Artificial Intelligence (AI) are setting the stage for a paradigm shift in the workplace. According to PwC, 72% of business executives say that AI will give them a competitive advantage in the future1. In fact, in many ways the future is already here. Several repetitive and simple tasks that were typically performed by humans are now being automated by AI bundled with other technologies, such as cloud systems, augmented reality, (social) robots, IoTs, and wearables. Consequently, the ratio of tasks executed by machines to humans is dramatically shifting. Human workers are rapidly being replaced with AI on many fronts. For instance, in 2018 an average of 71% of total task hours were performed by humans compared to 29% accomplished by machines. However, this average is expected to shift dramatically in the near future with 58% of tasks hours expected to be performed by humans and the remaining 42% to be handled exclusively by machines by 20222. In a world of such rapid technological changes, it is paramount to have an overview of the research being conducted in this discipline. Such an understanding of current developments of AI and associated technologies enables us to envision the future workplace and its effect on human employees. These insights also provide guidance to employees, teams, organizations, and governments in creating a sustainable and synergistic workplace. Finally, engaging in this research allows us to proactively counter any negative effects that may arise from the changes in the work settings. Through this minitrack, we hope to create a platform where researchers working on AI in the context of future of work can come together and create collaborations that will allow them to capitalize on each other’s work. The “AI and Future of Work” minitrack is especially interested in the following topics: 1. Power shifts between humans and AI 2. AI and employees’ mental and physical wellbeing 3. Shift in social/role identities with the introduction of AI 4. Required skill set for human employees in an era of AI 5. AI and the changing face of leadership 6. Social relationships and AI at the workplace 7. Integration of AI and work practices (knowledge sharing, decision making, etc.) [1] Bothun, D., Liebermann, M., and Rao, A.

Fwd: [AISWorld] Call for Papers - First Workshop “Towards a new generation of Personalized Intelligent Conversational Agents” (PICA)
by Gustaf Neumann 29 Mar '21

29 Mar '21

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for Papers - First Workshop “Towards a new generation of Personalized Intelligent Conversational Agents” (PICA) Date: Fri, 19 Feb 2021 12:24:35 +0000 From: Musi, Elena <Elena.Musi(a)liverpool.ac.uk> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> ================================================================= Call for Papers - First Workshop “Towards a new generation of Personalized Intelligent Conversational Agents” (PICA) 29th ACM Conference on User Modeling, Adaptation and Personalization (UMAP) Deadline: March 26, 2021 (GMT) pica.cls.ru.nl/ June 2021, Utrecht, NL ================================================================= Recent years have seen the rise of conversational agents (CAs) in everyday life: chatbots that use written communications above all, but also vocal digital assistants. It is safe to say that conversation is becoming a key mode of human-computer interaction. However, despite much recent success in natural language processing and dialogue research, the communication between a human and a machine is still in its infancy. In this context, dialogue personalization could be a key to narrow part of the gap, making sense of users’ features (e.g., preferences, expertise, communication style, emotions, personality) when engaged in a conversation with a machine. Learning user features directly from the dialogue with the chatbot, in order to adapt its response (e.g. the complexity of the explanations) can be an opportunity to improve the interaction with the user, both in commercial chatbots and voicebots offered by companies to their customers and by conversational, recommender systems. The PICA workshop focuses on both long-term engaging spoken dialogue systems and text-based chatbots, as well as conversational recommender systems. Papers can be about different approaches to this: (pilot) evaluations, design guidelines, personalization, natural language processing, protection of privacy and (health) data, (cognitive) architectures and frameworks, implementations, context analyses. We are also very interested in studies on the effectiveness of behaviour change support systems and changing health related behaviour (such as quit smoking, lose weight, etc.). The main goal of the workshop is to stimulate discussion around problems, challenges, possible solutions and research directions regarding the exploitation of NLP and ML techniques to learn user features and use them to personalize the dialogue in the next generation of intelligent conversational agents. TOPICS OF INTEREST ================== Submissions are encouraged but not limited to the following topics: Applications for personalized dialogues ● Commercial chatbot and voicebot ● Health management systems ● E-learning systems ● Conversational Recommender systems ● Counseling and coaching agents: Methodologies for learning personal data from dialogue ● User modeling and/or memory for long-term engaging dialogues ● NLP technologies for learning from dialogue ● Emotion and mood detection ● Personality detection ● Semantic Content Analysis of Social and Linked Open Data ● Information retrieval and elicitation by agents Methodologies for dialogue personalisation ● NLG for dialogue generation ● Intelligent explanation provision ● Resource and corpora creation Open Issues in Personalized Intelligent Agents ● Ethical issues and privacy management of Personal data ● Need for transparency (e.g., in compliance with GDPR) ● Gathering implicit feedbacks (e.g. social activities) to infer user interests. ● Evaluation of personalized conversational agents ● Trustworthiness, risks of bias in agent conversations ● Engagement and conversational strategies in dialogues ● Self-disclosure of agents IMPORTANT DATES ================== * Full paper submission: March 26, 2021 (GMT) * Reviews Due: April 23, 2021 * Paper notification: April 26, 2021 * Camera-ready deadline: May 7, 2021 * PICA 2021 Workshop: June 2021 SUBMISSION INFORMATION ======================== Submissions to the workshop are in the form of a long or short paper and submitted as a PDF file.

The main criticism is using Zoom to deliver lectures is not the most effective way to teach online. These criticisms are based on more than 20 years’ experience in identifying what works well — and what doesn’t — in online learning. However, I’d like to make two important points.
