A Study of Human–AI Symbiosis for Creative Work: Recent Developments and Future Directions in Deep Learning

Abstract

Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly deep learning, are having an enormous impact on our society today. Record numbers of jobs previously held by people have been automated, from manufacturing to transportation to customer services. The concerns of AI replacing humans by taking over people's jobs need to be urgently addressed. This article investigates some promising different directions of AI development: Instead of using AI to replace people, we should use AI to team up with people so that both can work better and smarter. Human–AI symbiosis refers to people and AI working together to jointly solve problems and perform specific tasks. The recent developments in deep learning models and frameworks have significantly improved the efficiency and performance of human and AI collaborations. In this article, some research work on human–AI collaborative environments has been extensively studied and analyzed to reveal the progress in this field. Although the teaming of humans and machines includes many complex tasks, the development has been very promising. One of the main goals in this field is to develop additional capabilities in machines capable of being successful teammates with a human partner. The correctness of the outcomes is often determined by the underlying technology and how performance and human satisfaction are measured through the collaborative nature of the system. We conclude that the teaming of humans and AI, particularly deep learning, has the advantage of combining the power of AI with the human domain expertise to improve performance and create value. Human–AI symbiosis could be a promising future direction for AI's continuing integration into the world.
