Book Description
As artificial intelligence (AI) advances, the question of how AI can empower humans over the long term has become increasingly important. This book, Human-AI Empowerment (HAIE), provides a timely exploration of strategies for aligning AI with long-term human goals, ensuring that AI acts as an empowering force across multiple dimensions. Drawing on interdisciplinary research from fields such as AI, HCI, psychology, education, economics, and social science, the book develops comprehensive frameworks for studying and optimizing AI’s impact on human empowerment. HAIE investigates empowerment from a human-centered computing (HCC) perspective, examining how AI systems can track and adapt to progressively achieve long-term goals. The book explores techniques for fostering a mutually beneficial human-AI synergy, delving into AI Empowerment approaches, applicable Human-Computer Interaction methods for long-term engagement, and insights from various disciplines on long-term goal management. Through integrative frameworks, empirical evidence, and ongoing work in the field, this volume informs academics and practitioners seeking to harness AI as a transformative technology for concretely empowering humanity. This book highlights the need for comprehensive approaches to understanding and shaping the future of human-AI collaboration, maximizing its potential to expand human possibilities and support the pursuit of mid-term and long-term goals.
