Dear all, posting for Jan vom Brocke; German text, About, and Abstract below:
Dear Students,
I would like to extend a warm invitation to you all for a fantastic guest lecture by my American colleague, Alan Hevner, which will take place this Thursday at the University's Castle.
Date: June 6th, 10 am (sharp)
Location: University's Castle, Room S2
Topic: Designing Human-Artificial Intelligence Systems.
Al is a legend in the field of International Information Systems and particularly a pioneer in design science research, which also plays a significant role here in Münster and can be very useful for thesis projects.
Al will speak on the topic of "Designing Human-Artificial Intelligence Systems" - a highly relevant subject - and I would be delighted to welcome many students there. Room S2 is large enough that we can accommodate a good number of attendees. The topic of designing systems with AI is certainly fascinating for us all. An abstract and brief introduction to Al are included below.
Feel free to simply drop by! Looking forward to seeing you there!
Best regards,
Jan vom Brocke

Liebe Studierende,
ich möchte Sie alle ganz herzlich zu einem grossartigen Gastvortrag meines amerikanischen Kollegen Alan Hevner einladen, die diesen Donnerstag im Schloss der Universität stattfindet.
6. Juni, 10 Uhr s.t., Schloss der Universität, S2 Designing Human-Artificial Intelligence System.
Al ist eine Legende der internationalen Wirtschaftsinformatik und insbesondere ein Pionier auf dem Gebiet der Gestaltungsorientierten Forschung, die ja auch bei uns in Münster von grosser Bedeutung ist und sich auch für Abschlussarbeiten sehr anbietet.
Al spricht zum Thema "Designing Human-Artificial Intelligence Systems“ – ein sehr aktuelles Thema – und ich würde mich sehr freuen, dort auch viele Studierende begrüssen zu können. Der S2 ist ja gross genug, sodass wir zahlreich erscheinen können. Das Thema der Gestaltung von Systemen mit KI ist ja auch für uns alle sehr spannend. Ein Abstract und eine Kurzvorstellung von Al habe ich unten angefügt.
Kommen Sie gerne einfach vorbei! Ich freue mich, Sie zu sehen!
Herzlich
Jan vom Brocke

Abstract:
Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are disrupting the design, development, and operation of all business applications. Future socio-technical systems will combine design innovations in AI technologies, human behaviors, and the synergistic human-machine trade-offs. New goals and requirements for Human-AI System (HAIS) capabilities and qualities are emerging, whereas the boundaries between human and machine behaviors continue to blur. The goal of this presentation is to identify and investigate the design science research (DSR) challenges facing the field of Information Systems as the demand for human-machine synergies in HAIS surges in all application areas. The design challenges of HAIS are characterized by a taxonomy of eight C’s - composition, complexity, creativity, confidence, controls, conscience, certification, and contribution. By applying a design science research frame to structure and investigate HAIS design, implementation, use, and evolution, a forward-thinking agenda for relevant and rigorous research contributions is proposed. The presentation concludes by examining prior research published in Decision Support Systems that makes contributions to HAIS design science research (DSR). Synergistic interactions among DSR, AI technology design, and human interaction design are used to specify the dimensions for a meta-analysis of the DSS HAIS literature. Observations are made and future research directions for the design of HAIS as solutions for complex decision science problems are proposed.
