OTTRS Speaker Series: Human-Machine Teaming: What Skills Do the Humans Need?

Home    /     Events

Research Talks/Events

Date/Time: Friday, March 17, 2023 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Location: Virtual

Over the last few decades, technology has become increasingly intelligent. Technology is no longer a passive tool that supports a single human in their work, but an active teammate that collaborates and learns as a critical entity of the team. To date, human-machine teaming research has primarily focused on the machines – how to design them, what their capabilities are, and how they can “learn.” This presentation takes the opposite view, focusing on the importance of selecting and training humans to be effective human-machine teammates. The presentation addresses two questions: What unique skills do humans need to work well with machines as teammates, and how are those skills different from those required for effective human-human interactions? Details about the human traits and abilities that can be selected for, and the human skills that can be trained to maximize human-machine teaming effectiveness will be discussed.
