Personalizing Human-AI Interaction

Judith Masthoff

Utrecht University

Abstract

AI can support humans to make decisions, change behaviour, and improve wellbeing. To optimally do so, AI needs to adapt to humans, personalizing its support, taking into account characteristics of individuals, groups, and context. This talk discusses what kinds of personalization are needed and how personalization can be researched. It provides examples from recommender systems, digital behaviour interventions, and emotional support systems. The ethical aspects of personalization are also touched upon.
