Alignable AIs: Aligning the Ways that AIs Work based on the Ways Humans think the AIs should Work
As the use of AIs explosively expands in everyday technology use, understanding when the AIs expose vulnerabilities that do not match our mental model and how we can steer their behavior in those cases is becoming crucial. The first part of this talk will introduce how we can understand the vulnerability insights of computer vision models and more directly adjust the models with the insights using local explanations. Another direction in Alignable AIs is to understand how to determine the specific type of users and the task to identify AI can be applied to their settings to make designs that can enhance their productivity. In this direction, we will discuss FlatMagic, a Human-AI Collaboration design designed to support comic artists' colorization process. Finally, the presenter hopes to discuss with audiences how we can apply XAI techniques, human-in-the-loop, and human-AI collaboration principles to move our interactive solution forward in better supporting marginalized populations or highly professional and specialized user groups.
