Meaning and Understanding in Human-centric AI

Project description

Human-centric AI that will understand us better

Artificial intelligence (AI) has already made possible the communication between machines and humans, in addition to providing solutions to problems. But could AI grasp deeper meanings or motivations? The EU-funded MUHAI project will investigate by exploring a radically new approach in studies on human-centric AI technology focussing on meaning and understanding. Researchers will refer to the theory of personal dynamic memory to shed light on the process of reconstructing meanings of experiences. Based on recent advances in technical AI components, such as deep learning networks, it will build new ones, such as the mental simulation of actions using gamified virtual environments. The new approach will be tested in cases that require common sense and an understanding of social phenomena, as for example the persistence of inequality in our society.
