Human-AI Teaming in Cockpit Systems (HAITICS)
✈️
As artificial intelligence (AI) advances, its integration into safety-critical applications presents both opportunities for improving efficiency but also challenges in ensuring safety. In cockpit systems, understanding pilot interaction with AI-based technologies is crucial for assessing overall flight safety.
✈️
This research explores human-AI interaction in aviation through interdisciplinary collaboration between the Institute of Aircraft Systems and IRIS, combining expertise in aviation systems, AI, and human factors. Traditionally, human-machine systems are developed by defining system behavior and training pilots, who remain responsible for monitoring, error detection, and overriding automation when needed. AI disrupts this model by: 1) Introducing higher levels of automation, increasing operational complexity and making it harder for pilots to detect system failures; 2) Exhibiting unpredictable behaviors, such as overconfidence and hallucinations, which are difficult to identify.
✈️
This research examines key factors in pilot-AI collaboration, including workload, trust, explainability, and de-skilling. They use flight simulator experiments and plan to integrate system dynamics modeling to analyze these aspects over time. Additionally, it was explored how system requirements, safety assessments, and pilot training must evolve to maintain system safety in AI-assisted aviation. The results of this research will also contribute to standardization efforts and help shape regulatory guidelines for AI certification in aviation. This talk will present insights from the recent experimental findings, discuss challenges in AI trust and authority allocation, and highlight the broader implications of our research for the future of AI-enabled flight operations.

This is a WebEx talk to which everyone who is interested is cordially invited. It will take place in English. The moderator and IRIS speaker, Jun.-Prof. Dr. Maria Wirzberger Wirzberger, will moderate it. Following Zamira Daw's presentation, there will be an opportunity to ask questions. We look forward to active participation.
