Automating the Path: An R&D Agenda for Human-Centered AI and Visualization
Speaker: Niklas Elmqvist – Aarhus, DenmarkTopic(s): Human Computer Interaction
Abstract
The emergence of generative AI and foundation models is fundamentally reshaping computer science, and visualization is no exception. In this talk, I will present a systematic framework for understanding how human-centered AI (HCAI) can transform the visualization discipline. This framework maps four key HCAI capabilities—amplify, augment, empower, and enhance—onto the four phases of visual sensemaking: view, explore, schematize, and report. For each combination, I will discuss existing research, envision future possibilities, identify challenges and pitfalls, and examine ethical considerations. This design space can serve as an R&D agenda for both visualization researchers and practitioners to integrate AI into their work as well as understanding how visualization can support HCAI research.About this Lecture
