Dr. Sarah Oeste-Reiß Speaker at the LABOR.A platform "Work of the Future"
On 13 September 2018, the LABOR.A event organized by the Hans Böckler Foundation took place in Berlin. LABOR.A is a platform for exchange between company stakeholders, science, think tanks, politics and trade unions. The event focused on the rapidly changing world of work and how it can be shaped in a way that benefits everyone. The collaboratively planned program combined the diverse activities of the Hans Böckler Foundation on the work of the future with the contributions of external program partners in sessions and at the Market of Opportunities. Background: In June 2017, the "Transforming work!" report by the "Work of the future" commission was published. On this basis, the Hans Böckler Foundation is thinking ahead - together with stakeholders and other experts.
In this context, Dr. Sarah-Oeste Reiß, research group leader at the Department of Information Systems at the Scientific Centre for Information Technology Design (ITeG), held a session on the topic of "How do human and artificial intelligence merge to create the knowledge work of the future?"
Through collaboration, groups can solve tasks that an individual cannot solve due to limited cognitive abilities. Such collaborative processes can be systematically developed to deliver high-quality results. The increasing virtualization of work and advances in the field of artificial intelligence are creating potential for new types of collaboration formats in the form of human-machine collaboration, in which human collaboration can be expanded with artificial intelligence as a 'new team partner'. An understanding of the characteristics and potential applications of the hybridization of intelligence and the derivation of implications for the development of structured collaboration processes are of central importance here.
