4:30 – 5:30 PM | Group discussion (Moderator: Lin Padgham) • What international, global, or cross-cultural considerations were raised during your scenario discussions? • What are the benefits of intelligent human-machine collaboration vs. traditional autonomy? • What are some of the commonalities in human-machine issues that were raised across the scenarios? • What are the issues that were not raised? • What are the biggest overall research challenges? Which of these challenges would require significant breakthroughs? Which of these break-throughs are unlikely to occur in the next ten years? In twenty years? |
| Based on this discussion, workshop participants will select and self-organize into 5 topics for the next day’s Collaboration Panels. |
