Human-centric artificial intelligence in industry 5.0: Enhancing human interaction and collaborative applications

Abstract

The fifth industrial revolution - or Industry 5.0 - likely see human-centric artificial intelligence (AI) revolutionize by literally putting humans in contact and integrated with AI advancements. While its predecessor, Industry 4.0, cantered on automation and productivity by integrating cyber-physical systems and the Internet of Things (IoT), Industry 5.0 focuses on the cooperative connection between human workers and AI systems. This study investigates the recent and well-established uses of humanistic AI and provides a deeper insight into the possibilities of improving various sectors of the industry. Use cases range from making cobots even more collaborative by making them totally safe to work alongside humans, to having AI-assisted decision-making that further enables human operators real time with smarter decision making and problem solving. The sophisticated natural language processing (NLP) and computer vision technologies create an intuitive human-machine interfaces to communicate and interact without any hindrance. They are even experimenting with AI enabled training and simulation tools, reinforcing and reskilling the current affected workforce to meet the developing and dynamically larger requirements of Industry 5.0. By moving towards ethical AI principles, we assure that AI implementations keep human values and societal benefits at the core and mitigate issues on privacy, bias, and transparency. This research has implications for human-centric AI, reaffirming the value of building an integrated and resilient industrial ecosystem that capitalizes on the collective strengths of humans and intelligent systems to deliver innovation, resilience, and growth for the economy.
