Research abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is swiftly integrating into the workforce and complementing the human as a teammate. AI imbued with social reasoning capacities, or artificial social intelligence (ASI), is posited as the next avenue of technological advancement. However, researchers have begun to note some of the pitfalls of careless or quick implementation of AI without proper consideration of the weaknesses of AI compared to a human, or the broader impacts on individual and team outcomes. That is, although AI systems may offer opportunities to make decision processes more efficient and precise, they may also remove crucial human elements from those processes. To meet the need for human-in-the-loop AI (HIT-AI) that allows humans and AI to complement each other in their reasoning and intervention efforts, Aptima is providing the ADAPT II.2 solution. ADAPT II.2 builds complementary dashboard components into the existing human-AI teaming (HAT) testbed to allow the human to review computational outcomes of social teaming constructs and ASI-generated interventions. Together, these facilitate after-action reviews (AARs) and the emergence of a potentially superior hybrid advisor.
