Professor of Interactive Systems Engineering in the Department of Engineering at the University of Cambridge and a Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge. He leads the Intelligent Interactive Systems group, which belongs to the Engineering Design Centre. He is also a co-founder and co-director of the Centre for Human-Inspired Artificial Intelligence at the University of Cambridge.

Course title: AI Engineering as Design Engineering

Abstract: In this half-day course I will teach systematic design techniques for designing human-AI systems. We will cover the following topics: (1) understanding the system and clarifying the task; (2) managing complexity by abstracting a system at the functional level; (3) reasoning about automation and interactivity; (4) supporting interpretation and shared control; (5) using risk to drive design; and (6) designing for user adoption by considering appropriation and deployment.
