Maaike Harbers is lector artificial intelligence & society bij het Kenniscentrum Creating 010 en hoofddocent bij de opleiding creative media and game technologies. Ze doet onderzoek naar ethiek en kunstmatige intelligentie.

Deze openbare les gaat over het verantwoord ontwerpen van toepassingen met kunstmatige intelligentie. Verantwoord ontwerpen houdt daarbij in dat ontwerpers zich bewust zijn van hun verantwoordelijkheid en rekening houden met de ethische implicaties van hun werk op mensen en de samenleving. In deze les …

Interview over kunstmatige intelligentie met Maaike Harbers (lector Artificial Intelligence, kenniscentrum Creating 010)

This article proposes the use of agent-based simulation to analyze complex design trade-offs that involve value tensions. This is illustrated by a case study in the domain of train traffic control. In this case, agent-based simulation supported the involvement of stakeholders and increased understanding …

The Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly growing, and offers many economical and societal potentials and benefits. Nevertheless, the IoT also introduces new threats to our Security, Privacy and Safety (SPS). The existing work on mitigating these SPS threats often fails to address the fundamental challenges …

Het Internet of Things (IoT) is een netwerk van ‘slimme’ apparaten, sensoren en andere objecten die met elkaar en met het internet verbonden zijn. Nu al worden verschillende IoT-toepassingen veelvuldig gebruikt in onze samenleving en in de toekomst zal de adoptie van het IoT alleen nog maar verder toenemen. …

Uneven workload distributions in teams can lead to suboptimal team performance. This paper therefore describes the design of a virtual assistant that supports workload harmonization in teams by measuring workload, informing team members about their own and other team members’ workload, and supporting …

Due to advances in technology, the world around us contains an increasing number of robots, virtual agents, and other intelligent systems. These systems all have a certain degree of autonomy. For the people who interact with an intelligent system it is important to obtain a good understanding of its …

As robots are increasingly used in Search and Rescue (SAR) missions, it becomes highly relevant to study how SAR robots can be developed and deployed in a responsible way. In contrast to some other robot application domains, e.g. military and healthcare, the ethics of robot-assisted SAR are relatively …
