Cognitive personalization for online microtask labor platforms: A systematic literature review

USER MODELING AND USER-ADAPTED INTERACTION

Abstract
Online microtask labor has increased its role in the last few years and has provided the possibility of people who were usually excluded from the labor market to work anytime and without geographical barriers. While this brings new opportunities for people to work remotely, it can also pose challenges regarding the difficulty of assigning tasks to workers according to their abilities. To this end, cognitive personalization can be used to assess the cognitive profile of each worker and subsequently match those workers to the most appropriate type of work that is available on the digital labor market. In this regard, we believe that the time is ripe for a review of the current state of research on cognitive personalization for digital labor. The present study was conducted by following the recommended guidelines for the software engineering domain through a systematic literature review that led to the analysis of 20 primary studies published from 2010 to 2020. The results report the application of several cognition theories derived from the field of psychology, which in turn revealed an apparent presence of studies indicating accurate levels of cognitive personalization in digital labor in addition to a potential increase in the worker's performance, most frequently investigated in crowdsourcing settings. In view of this, the present essay seeks to contribute to the identification of several gaps and opportunities for future research in order to enhance the personalization of online labor, which has the potential of increasing both worker motivation and the quality of digital work.

On the Human-AI Metaphorical Interplay for Culturally Sensitive Generative AI Design in Music Co-Creation

Authors
Correia A.;

Publication
CEUR Workshop Proceedings

Abstract
This research revolves around the potential challenges, opportunities, and strategies associated with human-centered generative artificial intelligence (AI) in the music compositional practice, emphasizing the role of metaphorical design in shaping musicians' expectations toward the adoption of generative AI in their everyday creative activities. Through a human-computer interaction (HCI) lens, this paper aims to discuss the cultural implications of the human-AI metaphorical design space for the seamless integration of intelligent algorithmic experiences in a manner that aligns with cultural values and realistic expectations of music creators while promoting informed policies, sociotechnical imaginaries, and culturally sensitive generative AI design strategies with focus on user-friendly interfaces that resonate with diverse music creation groups.

Abstract
This study discusses the intricate relations between generative artificial intelligence (AI) and music composers. Based on a previous rapid review of recent literature, it reinforces a gap and suggests the need to develop human-centered generative AI design strategies prioritizing cultural artistic (and non-artistic) aspects. We posit that AI-based music generation solutions should resonate with the cultural diversity of stakeholders who are impacted by these systems in practice. The paper highlights the significance of metaphorical design as an effective method in human-AI music co-creation by leveraging familiar interfaces and features that are rooted in everyday objects and cognitive models derived from real-world settings. Our insights illustrate possible ways of (re)framing human-AI metaphorical design to shape perceptions and facilitate seamless interactions between humans and intelligent systems in music co-creativity, particularly at the compositional level. At the heart of this research is the alignment of AI-driven music creation systems with user needs, values, and expectations that vary from culture to culture and thus require a continuous and transparent adaptation of the technology in use to accommodate individual preferences and the socio-algorithmic specificities underlying musicians’ activities.
