CALL FOR PAPERS
*17th Brazilian Symposium on Information Systems (SBSI 2021)*
Jun 07-10, 2021, *Remote*
https://sbsi2021.facom.ufu.br/pages/en/
Track: *Human-AI Interaction in the Era of Digitalization*
https://sbsi2021.facom.ufu.br/pages/pt/trilha-aihuman.html
Deadline: *Mar 29, 2021 (Hard)*
* Track Description
The 2019 Coronavirus pandemic has changed the lives of communities
and
organizations. For a very long time, digital technologies usage
was limited
to more restrictive and specific tasks, e.g., following weather
conditions
or chatting with colleagues. As new usage has been explored, most
of them
unthoughtful in the period pre-pandemic, these technologies have
become
fundamental to daily activities, e.g., medical appointments,
company
meetings and shopping goods. This movement towards a more
effective usage
of information technologies comprises the so-called Digital
Transformation.
Once these technologies can be used to digitize processes, they
also
generate further opportunities to improve the performance and
effectiveness
of social or organizational decision-making. Artificial
Intelligence and
Machine Learning thus become essential to process and gain
insights from
the large volume of data (i.e., Big Data) (Brynjolfsson &
McAfee, 2014;
Müller et al., 2018). This is why algorithms and models are
capable of
learning from historical (integrated) data, establishing and
defining
behaviour patterns and then make projects of future conditions. A
new
dynamic emerges from this interaction and has the potential to
create
deeper modifications not only on how technologies adapt to people
but also
on the information flows and social structures of interactions. A
recent
work defines three types of the relationship of AI and humans (Rai
et al.,
2019): task substitution (i.e., AI is responsible for a task);
task
augmentation (i.e., humans are combined with AI to perform a task
or vice
versa); and task assemblage (i.e., humans and AI are integrated to
perform
a task). Even though these relationships are recognized in
practice and
literature, they still require further investigation and research
to
understand their characteristics and elements, as well as to
establish the
success and failure factors. Existing literature also still lack
empirical
studies on the topic, specifically, in countries of the Global
South. In
this context, this track proposal seeks to gather researchers and
practitioners interested in addressing open questions on the
relationship
between AI and humans in the Era of Digitalization. The track
session will
create an environment for discussing empirical, theoretical and
conceptual
results on the topics of interest. Eventually, the track will also
provide
a room for motivating collaborations among the participants around
the
future and open challenges on the topic.
Track topics are therefore focused on but not limited to the
following list.
– Descriptive models on the relationship between AI and humans;
– Responsible AI for digital transformation;
– Theories applied to AI for digital transformation;
– Methods, methodologies and processes applied to AI for digital
transformation;
– Institutionalization of AI within organizations and communities;
– Humanized AI for digital transformation;
– Impacts of AI with organizations and society;
– Relationships of AI and humans for decision-making within
organizations
and society;
– Success and failure factors of AI within organizations and
society;
– Relationships of AI and humans for addressing the Sustainable
Development
Goals of the United Nations;
– Empirical, conceptual and theoretical studies;
– Experiences from the digital government (e-Gov) and industry;
– Studies applied to Global South and Latin America;
– Secondary studies (e.g., literature review and mapping study) on
the
topic.
