This document discusses the relationship between psychology and computer science. It notes that we live in the information age dominated by computers, so understanding human behavior and cognition through psychology can help computer professionals better develop technologies. The document outlines key branches of psychology like cognitive and cyber psychology that are especially relevant. It also presents two case studies analyzing a website and product from a psychological perspective. The overall goal is to demonstrate how knowledge of psychology can help IT professionals create technologies that meet human needs.

Intimate technology - the battle for our body and behaviourKarlos Svoboda
This essay aims to spark a wave of public and political debate about a series of new products already showered out over you, the volume of which will continue to increase during the coming years. This essay takes a serious look at the trend that technology is rapidly nesting itself in between us, very close to us and even within us, increasingly coming to know us and even receiving human traits. In short, we have become human-machine mixtures, cyborgs.
Orientation of IT towards Human Being - the Paradigm (2016)Research Impulses
At the beginning of our Age of Information, the 21th century, the influence of IT (Information Technology) got so important that all parts of human live and society where involved. Especially Media Industry started a great hype which is not finished till now. Mobile Media have got a really up to date part of especially young society.
On the level of serious science it has been up to date to use the word Information in all reports and publishing papers. A lot of semantics have been used and some scientists (Prof. FLEISSNER, Prof HOFKIRCHNER, Prof. CAPURRO and the author) tried to abstract this word to a constant scientific term. So for first time the author tried a worldwide unifying definition of the terms Information and Data. It’s importance is documented by the topic “Information Scientific Axioms”.
In second part – based on it – Clues for generally evidence of Information are written down. They are a set of informationscientific terms - excerpted out of real nature and society. The way of Information between Object and Subject or involving Human Being in big and complex machine systems (aeroplanes, ships and industrial productions) made it necessary to think additionally about the general usage of Information. As a useful result many relationships to other sciences are possible. They bring the benefit to be unifying and scientifically worldwide structuring.
As next research object general forms of actual Information are investigated.
As final result for future the author asks: „How can we make Information – in all forms – more positive and precious for Human Being? “. This is a new, scientific topic for the future of IT and human society.

AI（Full name Artificial Intelligence）is a new technological science that studies and develops theories, methods, techniques, and application systems used to simulate, extend, and expand human intelligence.
Artificial intelligence is a branch of computer science. It attempts to understand the essence of intelligence and produce a new intelligent machine that can respond in a similar way to human intelligence.

Welcome to the Launch of the Transformative Tech international chapters.
We focus on technology to scale, business to sustain, and entrepreneurship and innovation to experiment.
We serve entrepreneurs and innovators to find feedback, funding, and friends.
Why code robots, avatars and software agents with compassion? In one word: Neuroplasticity. Repeated exposure to objects, relations,emotions changes who we are. Recent Discoveries in Neuroscience, neuroendocrinology, Psychoneuroimmunology, etc. show biological benefits from compassion - witnessing it, giving it or receiving. Designing technologies without considering how they change us, without designing to display or encourage compassionate we are in some sense encouraging our psychopathic tendencies through our daily interactions. Slides contain some disturbing graphics.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Builder.ai Founder Sachin Dev Duggal's Strategic Approach to Create an Innova...Ramesh Iyer
In today's fast-changing business world, Companies that adapt and embrace new ideas often need help to keep up with the competition. However, fostering a culture of innovation takes much work. It takes vision, leadership and willingness to take risks in the right proportion. Sachin Dev Duggal, co-founder of Builder.ai, has perfected the art of this balance, creating a company culture where creativity and growth are nurtured at each stage.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Apport de la psychologie dans les sciences informatiques -Devfest Yde 2013
1. Introduction
-The information age , computer science and its implications
Part I - What is psychology, branches of psychology and its relevance for IT professionals ? Presented by
Didier Demassosso
Part II- What is the place of psychology in computer science ? ( practical demonstration)
Presented by Ntari Ernest
Conclusion
- Knowlegde in Psychology can inform ITCT/IT professionals on best ways to develop , innovate , sell ,
create good and services
The place of psychology in the field
of computer science the case of the Cameroonian context
A Presentation By Didier Demassosso Psychologist and Ntari Ernest Freelance
Developer For GDG DevFest 2013 Yaoundé Conference 28th September 2013
2. - We are living in the information age (Alvin
Toffler)
- The information age is computer science
- this implies new ways of perceiving
(perception), cognizing ( cognition)
, sensing ( sensation) the environment in
which we live.
This implies sciences which can enable us
understand and explain behaviour (
machines and man)
3. Psychology is a science that studies behaviour and
mental processes of humans and animals.
Everything behaves but human behaviour is particular
( observable and inobservable behaviour).
Psychology is not common sense . Distinction between
implicit psychology and explicit psychology.
A psychologist cannot know how people behave if
he/she does not have a scientific background.
Psychology is everywhere in our day to day lives
4. All the branches of psychology study an
aspect of behaviour.
Examples of this subdisciplines relevant to
computer sciences are cognitive psychology ,
cyber psychology, clinical psychology ,
psychopathology, developmental psychology
,consumer psychology.
Each branch of psychology can enable the IT
professional to understand , explain , predict
human behaviour.
5. - An analysis of the user interface of MTN
web sms.
- -An analysis of the new tradex gas bottle
pressure reader
6. Knowledge in Psychology can inform
ITCT/IT professionals on best ways to
develop , innovate , sell , create good and
services that will meet the developmental
and socio-cultural needs of people.
7. We will be glad to answer your questions
