AI at Work: Åsa Cajander participates in podcast on productivity, health and responsibility
Is AI a productivity superpower, a health risk – or both? In a new episode of the podcast Hur är läget egentligen?" Åsa Cajander takes part in a conversation about how artificial intelligence affects working life.
Åsa Cajander, professor of human-computer interaction at Uppsala University, is a guest on the podcast How Are Things Really?. The episode discusses the growing importance of AI in the workplace and how the technology can influence productivity, the work environment, and well-being, as well as the challenges that follow in its wake.
Among other things, the episode addresses how AI can contribute to increased or decreased stress, why trust in these systems is crucial for them to function in practice, and how responsibility and control change when AI becomes part of everyday work.
The conversation offers a nuanced view of both the opportunities and risks of AI at work and highlights the importance of thoughtful and sustainable use of the technology.
