Engelbart DC (1962 ) Augmenting Human
Intellect: A Conceptual Framework.
• “…By ‘augmenting human intellect’ we mean increasing
the capability of a man to approach a complex problem
situation, to gain comprehension to suit his particular
needs, and to derive solutions to problems.
• [………………………………………………………………….]
• We see the quickest gains emerging from (1) giving the
human the minute-by-minute a service from a digital
computer […] and (2) developing new methods of
thinking and working that allow the human to

Umberto Eco
(1986)
Il computer non è una
macchina intelligente che
aiuta le persone stupide,
anzi è una macchina stupida
che funziona solo nelle mani
delle persone intelligenti”
(“The comuter is not an
intelligent machine that
helps the stupid people ,
but is a stupid tool that
functions only in the hands
of intelligent people“) .

Peter Drucker (1967): “The
computer makes no decisions; it only carries
out orders. It’s a total moron, and therein lies
its strength. It forces us to think, to set the
criteria. The stupider the tool, the brighter the
master has to be—and this is the dumbest
tool we have ever had”

Peter Drucker’s Assumptions (1967):
The Age of Information
• “Assumption No. 1: Within the next ten years, information will
become very much cheaper. An hour of computer time today costs
several hundred dollars at a minimum; I have seen figures that put the
cost at about a dollar an hour in 1973 or so.
• Assumption No. 2: The present imbalance between the capacity to
compute and store information and the capacity to use it will be
remedied. We will spend more and more money on producing the things
that make a computer usable—the software, the programs, the
terminals, and so on.
• Assumption No. 3: The kindergarten stage is over. We’re past the
time when everybody was terribly impressed by the computer’s ability
to do two plus two in fractions of a nanosecond. We’re also past the
stage of trying to find work for the computer by putting all the
unimportant things on it—using it as a very expensive clerk.”

Today: The Computer in The Private Life
“Almost everyone has a cradle-to-grave general personal assistant
application that builds up an integrated model of the person’s
preferences, abilities, interests, modes of learning, idiosyncratic use of
terms and expressions, experiences, goals, plans, beliefs” (Ex.
Oracle’s Siri; μSoft’s Cortana; Amazon’s Alexa, Google Assistant..).
• Predicted phenomena:
– weak telepathy: the AI understands what one has in mind and
why, completes that action […], and accomplishes actual goal ;
– weak immortality : PDA’s model , even after one’s death, is able
to continue to interact with family, friends, business associates,
carry on conversations, accomplish assigned tasks…;
– weak cloning: person’s instant duplication, ubiquity, multitasking

Operator 4.0 in Modern
Manufacturing
6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 13
(Source: Romero et al 2016)

Operator 4.0
• “Operator 4.0 : is a smart and skilled operator who performs not only
‘cooperative work’ with robots, but also ‘work aided’ by machines as
and if needed, by means of human cyber-physical systems, advanced
human-machine interaction technologies and adaptive automation
towards human-automation symbiosis work systems .
• Social Operator 4.0 is a type of Operator 4.0 that uses smart
wearable solutions together with advanced human-machine interaction
(HMI) technologies to cooperate with other social operators such as:
social machines and social software systems in order to communicate
and exchange information for mutual benefit and align/alter activities
as well as share resources so that more efficient results can be achieved
at the smart and social factory of Industry 4.0.”
• ( Source: Romero et al 2016)
6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 14

Social Factory
• “A Social Factory is a live enterprise social network
– with powerful middleware and analytics backend
– to improve the connection between social operators, social machines and social
software systems working together in a smart production environment, and
– the data created within the networking process towards a sustainable ‘learning
factory’.
• A Social Factory should be able to
– provide the right information and the right time and place (anywhere and any
time) to the right person, machine and/ or software,
– support humans under any working conditions,
– engage humans to contribute to new knowledge creation,
– treat humans, machines and software as equal partners
– learn from all this socialization of knowledge by explicitising it.”

Andrew Yan-Tak Ng (吳恩達 )(2016):
“A lot of valuable work currently done by
humans:
– examining security video to detect suspicious
behaviors,
– deciding if a car is about to hit a pedestrian
– finding and eliminating abusive online posts
can be done in less than one second. These tasks
are ripe for automation”
6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 17

Automation, Division of Work,
Human Computer Collaboration
• Definition: “Automation is a process that controls a
function or task without human intervention.” ( Billings 1991)
• Remarks
– “Even highly automated systems need human beings for
supervision, adjustment, maintenance and improvement.” ( Bibby
et al 1975);
– “The hardest activities to automate with currently available
technologies are those that […] apply expertise to decision making,
planning, or creative work (18 percent).” ( Chui&Manika 2016)

Fewer than 5% of occupations consist of activities that are 100%
automatable with today’s technology, while 62% of occupations have at
least 30% of automatable tasks. Consequently, employees at all career
stages enjoy new tasks and responsibilities that demand the human skill
of dynamic decision-making in a changing environment. (Batra et al
2017)

Task Allocation Between People and
Automation Equipment
• Traditional Schemes:
– Comparison allocation based on MABA-MABA list: assigning each function
to the most capable agent (either people or machine),
– Leftover allocation: allocating to automation equipment every function that
can be automated, the rest remain to be performed by the people
– Economic design: the allocation scheme ensures economical efficiency.
• New Approaches:
– adaptive/shared automation: the control of functions dynamically shifts
between people and machines depending on environmental factors, operator
workload, and performance
– human centered automation, balanced automation, collaborative automation…
6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 20

Original MABA-MABA list of Fitts
• Humans appear to surpass
present-day machines in respect
to the following:
• Present-day machines appear to
surpass humans in respect to the
following:
Ability to detect a small amount of
visual or acoustic energy;
•Ability to perceive patterns of light or
sound;
•Ability to improvise and use flexible
procedures;
•Ability to store very large amounts of
information for long periods and to
recall relevant facts at the appropriate
time;
•Ability to reason inductively;
•Ability to exercise judgment.
•Ability to respond quickly to control
signals and to apply great force smoothly
and precisely;
•Ability to perform repetitive, routine
tasks;
•Ability to store information briefly and
then to erase it completely;
•Ability to reason deductively, including
computational ability;
•Ability to handle highly complex
operations, i.e.to do many different things
at once.

Licklider: A Similar View
• Men are noisy, narrow-band devices, but their nervous
systems have very many parallel and simultaneously
active channels.
• Relative to men, computing machines are very fast and
very accurate, but they are constrained to perform only
one or a few elementary operations at a time.
• Men are flexible, capable of "programming themselves
contingently" on the basis of newly received information.
Computing machines are single-minded, constrained by
their "pre-programming.“

Human –Machine Cooperative Interaction
• Fitts’ Remarks: “The listing of those respects in which human
capabilities surpass those of machines must, of course, be hedged with
the statement that we cannot foresee what machines can be built to do
in the future’ (p 6–7)”
• “We suggest that great caution be exercised in assuming that men can
successfully monitor complex automatic machines and ‘take over’ if
the machine breaks down” (p 11) ( See AI HLEG 2019)
• Licklider (1960) “Man-computer symbiosis is an expected
development in cooperative interaction between men and electronic
computers. It will involve very close coupling between the human and
the electronic members of the partnership. The main aims are:
– to let computers facilitate formulative thinking as they now facilitate the solution
of formulated problems, and
– to enable men and computers to cooperate in making-decisions and controlling
complex situations without inflexible dependence on predetermined programs”6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 24

“The hope is that, in not too many years,
human brains and computing machines will
be coupled together very tightly, and that
the resulting partnership will think as no
human brain has ever thought and process
data in a way not approached by the
information-handling machines we know
today”

A New Perspective
• Dekker et al (2002):
– “The early automation attempts were based on the assumption of
permanent human and machine strengths and weaknesses, and
suggested an often quantitative division of work.
– Quantitative ‘who does what’ allocation does not work because
the real effects of automation are qualitative: it transforms human
practice and forces people to adapt their skills and routines.”
• Rouse&Spohrer (2018).
“We need
– a new perspective to the automation-augmentation continuum and
– create the best cognitive team or cognitive organization to address
the problems at hand”

New Decision Problems and
Corresponding Needs
• There are ever more people with various types of
expertise involved in the decision-making activities
carried-out in management and control. This requires
intensive exchange of information and collaboration to
solve the decision problems;
• Decision problems have become more and more
complex, multi-facet ones, and, in a significant number
of cases, should be solved in real time;
• There is a real need and a definite market for advanced
and evolving computer-based tools to support
collaborative decision-making activities.6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 32

Herbert Alexander Simon (1916-2001)

Decision: A Metaphor
• Herbert Simon:
“A complex decision is like a great river,
drawing from its many tributaries the
innumerable premises of which it is
constituted”.
Source:https://www.azquotes.com/author/13612-Herbert_Sim
6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 34

The Decision:The Adopted Definition
• The decision is the result of human conscious
activities aiming at choosing a course of action for
attaining a certain objective (or set of objectives)
and normally implies allocating the necessary
resources.
• The decision is the result of processing
information and knowledge performed by an
empowered person or group of persons who have to
to make the choice and are accountable for the
quality of the solution adopted to solve a particular
problem or situation.
6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 35

Herbert Simon’s Process Model of
Decision-making
• Phases (Simon 1960):
– Intelligence, which consists of activities such as:
• a) setting the objectives,
• b) data collection and analysis in order to recognize a decision problem,
• c) problem statement;
– Design, which includes activities such as:
• a) identification ( or designing) possible courses of action (alternatives,)
• b) model building, and
• c) evaluation of various potential solutions to the problem;
– Choice, or selection of a feasible alternative, called decision, with
a view to releasing it for implementation.
Remark. Simon (1977) introduced later a fourth step which consists in
implementation of the solution and review of the results.6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 36

Multi-participant Decision-making
Model ( Konaté et al 2019)
• Preparation phase: deﬁning the problem (purpose, the domain, current context,
criteria, and possible constraints) and empowering the decision unit;
• Collective understanding of problem: an extension of the preparation phase
(sharing a common vision of the problem with all the participants and agreeing
on how to implement the designed process );
• Solution generation phase: to produce alternative ideas to solve the problem;
• Negotiation and confrontation of viewpoints: participants elaborate their
contributions present them in order to win the support of the greatest number
• Decision phase: selecting, according to the criteria previously deﬁned, the ideas
which have been approved by most of participants, or which will have made the
consensus within the group;
• Monitoring phase covers all the decision making process so that any problem
can be solved in the allocated time period It includes generating a report on all
decision-making process and ensures their implementation.

Consensus-based Multiparticipant Decisions
Two processes (Dong et al 2018):
1. Consensus building
a. Representing participants’ individual preferences representations expressed by
using various models ( cardinal, ordinal, multi-attribute measures, linguistic
preference relations and so on);
b. Aggregating individual preferences ( Weighted Average WA, Ordered WA,
Importance –Induced OWA);
c. Measuring the consensus level as a distance of individual preferences either to
the calculated collective one or as the result of comparing pairs of preferences;
d. Implementing a feedback mechanism to increase the consensus level based either
on a) identifying the participants whose contribution to consensus reaching is
minor or b) aiming at minimizing the number preference revisions.
2. Selecting a recommended solution (or a set of acceptable
solutions).
6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 40

Crowdsourceing: Basic Aspects
• Definition :“Crowdsourcing is a type of participative
online activity in which an individual, an institution, a non-
profit organization or a company proposes to a group of
individuals of varying knowledge, heterogeneity and
number, via flexible open call, the voluntary undertaking a
task. The undertaking of the task, of variable complexity
and modularity, and in which the crowd should participate
bringing their work, money, knowledge and experience,
always entails mutual benefit.” (Estellés-Arolas&Gonzales-
Ladron-de Guevara 2012)
• Platforms: Amazon’s Mechanical Turk3, and CrowdFlower;
Microworker; mCrowd , Climate CoLab, InnoCentive, Spigit, and
Brightidea.and so on ( Wang et al 2016; Metcalf et al 2019))
6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 41

Crowdsourceing-based Decision-Making
• Identification of the problem to be solved or the opportunity to be exploited based
on opinions and predictions collected from the crowd and definition of the task. This
corresponds to Intelligence phase of Simon's process model;
• Task broadcasting to the crowd, performed, in most cases, in the form of an open
call. The crowd may be composed of either enterprise employees (as a modern
technology-supported variant of the old “suggestion box”) or customers and/or other
outsiders;
• Idea generation by the crowd in the form of the set of various action alternatives,
and, possibly, evaluation criteria, It basically corresponds to the Design phase of
Simon’s process model ;
• Evaluation of ideas by the same members of the crowd that generated the idea or
by another crowd or group of experts.;
• Choosing the solution through a voting mechanism or by using a systematic
consensus building and selection procedures.
( Source: Chiu et al 2014)
6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 42

Limitations (Metcalf et al 2019)
• “Serial contributions enabled by platforms might
induce a “herding” behaviour;
• Some decisions require expertise which is not
possessed by the majority of the crowd members;
• Processing an enormous number of contributions
could create problems that can, paradoxically,
make the decision-takers to focus on a limited
number of familiar directions and ignoring the novel
approaches;
• The platforms encourage upvoting the already
crowdsourced ideas and consequently herding
effects.”

A Comment about Numbers
W. T. Lord Kelvin (1824–1906):
“I often say that when you can
measure what you are
speaking about and express it
in numbers, you know
something about it; but when
you cannot express it in
numbers, your knowledge is of
a meagre and unsatisfactory
kind” (Lecture: “Electrical Units of
Measurements”, held on 13th May 1883)
Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–
48, B.C.)
“Non enim numero haec
judicantur, sed pondere”

matter, the quality does”)

Major Desired Characteristic Features
of a Group DSS)
• Parallelism meant to avoid the waiting time of participants who
want to speak in an unsupported meeting by enabling all users to
add, in a simultaneous manner, their ideas and points of view;
• Anonymity that makes possible an idea be accepted based on its
value only, no matter what position or reputation has the person
who has proposed it to avoid the leader and followers” effect;
• Memory of the group that is based on long term and accurate
recording of the ideas expressed by individual participants and
conclusions that were reached;
• Improved precision of the contributions which were typed-in
compared with their oral presentation;
• Unambiguous display on computer screen of the ideas.
• Any time and/or any place operation that enable the participation of

AI to Support Decision-making
• H. Simon (1987):“The MS/OR profession has, in a single generation,
grown from birth to a lively adulthood and is playing an important role in the
management of our private and public institutions. This success should rise our
aspirations. We should aspire to increase the impact of MS/OR by incorporating
the AI kit of tools that can be applied to ill-structured , knowledge rich,
nonquantitative decision domains … “(Two heads are better than
one; the collaboration between AI and OR.

The Era of Cognitive Computing
• “Now we are at the dawn of a much bigger shift in the evolution of technology—a new era
affecting nearly every aspect of the field. The changes that are coming over the next two
decades will transform the way we live and work just as the computing revolution has
transformed the human landscape over the past half century…. call this the era of cognitive
computing “ (John E. Kelly III & SE Hamm 2013)
• Available Systems: Apple Siri, IBM Watson, Google’s Now, Brain,
AlphaGo, Home, Assistant, Amazon’s Alexa, Microsoft’s Adam,
Braina & Cortana, Baidu’s Minwa, Microsoft’s M, Viv…

Cognition as a Service ( CaaS)
• “Engineers predict that by 2055, nearly everyone
has 100 cognitive assistants that “work for
them[….]
• Almost all the people including doctors, physicians,
patients, bankers, policymakers, tourists,
customers, as well as community people greatly
augmented their capabilities by the cognitive
mediators or cognition as a service CaaS[…]
• Cognitive systems can potentially progress from
tools to assistants to collaborators to coaches “.

Remarks (I)
• Several capabilities will remain, at least
for the foreseeable future, by the
human agent, because computers
– cannot take responsibility for things they
were not designed for,
– do not have consciousness, and
– are not capable of reflection and cannot
have feelings.
Source: Rouse&Spohrer (2018)
6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 76

Remarks (II)
“When algorithms are at work, there should be
a human safety net to prevent harming people.
Our research demonstrated that in some
situations algorithms can recognize problems in
how they’re operating, and ask for human help.
Specifically, we show, asking for human help
can help alleviate algorithmic bias in some
settings”

“Human Agency and Oversight”
(AI HLEG 2019)
“AI systems should empower human
beings, allowing them to make informed
decisions and fostering their fundamental
rights. At the same time, proper
oversight mechanisms need to be ensured,
which can be achieved through
• human-in-the-loop,
• human-on-the-loop, and
• human-in-command approaches”

Myths and Misconceptions about AI
• Alexander Linden, the Gartner Research’s VP :
– a) AI works as a human brain,
– b) AI is unbiased,

• Velocity is a measure of the speed of data creation, streaming and
aggregation.
• Variety measures the structural heterogeneity of data representation:
numeric, textual, audio, video, structured, unstructured and so on
(introduced by SAP).
• Value is a measure of usefulness and usability in decision making
(introduced by ORACLE)
• Complexity measures the degree of interconnectedness,
interdependence in data structures and sensitivity of the whole to local

sets based on instruments, sensors, Internet transactions,
email, video, and click streams, and/or all other digital
sources available (Source: NSF 2012, apud Shi 2018).
• “Big data is collections of data with complexity, diversity,
heterogeneity and high potential value, which are difficult
to process and analyze in reasonable time. Big Data is new

Data Science
• Shi (2018) of CAS (Chinese Academy of Sciences)
– “Big data is based on Data Science;
– Data science is the science of data collection, management,
transformation, analysis, and application, and its core is to
study the acquisition of knowledge from data.
– Data science has begun to gradually replace the known business
intelligence and business analysis in applications.Data analysts
are called ‘data scientists”
• Carle Idoine et al (2019) of Gartner:
– Data Science is “a cohesive software application that offers a
mixture of basic building blocks essential for creating all kinds of
data science solutions, and for incorporating those solutions into
business processes, surrounding infrastructure and products”
(Cohesive= the basic building blocks are well integrated into a single platform)

– Logistical planning and economic
interventions;
– Automated primary care.

A Final Remark
“ The ‘human system’ and the ‘tool system’ are equally important in CSCW. […]
To take advantage of the radical emerging tool system inventions associated with CSCW, it is
inevitable that the evolution of the human system will begin to accelerate. In the optimum design,
either a tool system or a human system is dependent on the match it must make with the other. The
high degree of dependence implies that a balanced co-evolution of both is necessary. The bind we
are in is that our society encourages and rewards progress in technological and material sense and
often ignores the human and social implications of that progress.”
(Engelbart, Lehtman 1988)
6/13/2020 F. G. Filip 97

Other Open Problems
• Digital Humanism vs Dataism
– Digital humanism seeks to enable people to achieve
things they never believed possible or redefine the way
their goals can be achieved (Pettey 2015 )
– Dataism has the potential to replace humanism and its
worship of the individual with the ‘information flow’ as
the ultimate goal to which all other activities, efforts
and desires will become subservient (Harari 2016)
