The study proposes a novel approach to human interaction with artificial intelligence systems, highlighting the importance of collaboration and embedding AI functionalities to address design flaws and negative dynamics. Moving intelligence and agency from individual agents to the human collective can help mitigate shortcomings and align research agendas with the needs of diverse teams.
We propose a novel approach to human interaction with artificial intelligence systems (HAII), alternative to the mainstream dyadic one where humans and AI are seen as interacting agents. Through two quantitative experiments and two qualitative in-field case studies, we show that the mainstream HAII paradigm presents potentially harmful design shortcomings as it can trigger negative dynamics such as automation bias and prejudices. Our proposal, on the other hand, is grounded in the Computer-Supported Cooperative Work literature, in which AI can be conceived as a component of a Knowledge Artifact (KA). This consists of an ecosystem of knowledge creation tools whose goal is to support a Ba (after Nonaka), i.e. a collective of competent decision makers. We highlight the cooperative nature of decision making and the AI functionalities that a KA should embed. These include eXplainable AI solutions, aimed at facilitating appropriation, but also functionalities that enable reasoning in a collaborative setting. Finally, we discuss how moving intelligence and agency from individual agents to the human collective can help to mitigate the shortcomings of dyadic HAII (e.g., deskilling), redistribute responsibility in critical tasks, and revisit the HAII research agenda to align it with the needs of increasingly wide, heterogeneous and complex teams.
