Social Identities and Artificial Intelligence: Exploring the role of social identities in complex systems which include humans and machines.

自主系统在日常生活基础设施中所占的比重越来越大。随着此类系统的范围和重要性的增加以及基础技术的迅速发展，UKRI资助了一系列调查研究“节点”，以解决自主系统的可信度问题。作为这个大型跨学科项目的一部分，兰开斯特大学心理学系正在探索包括人类和自主系统在内的灾害和紧急情况下应急响应系统的恢复能力。我们研究了普通公民、应急服务（警察、救护车、消防服务）和不同类型的技术（无人机、机器人）在应急响应中的相互作用。社会认同过程现在被认为是理解普通人如何应对紧急情况的关键。与此同时，社会认同过程日益被认为是紧急情况下应急服务运作方式的关键。这个博士项目将探索社会认同思想的潜在贡献，即如何支持人与技术之间的关系，使应急响应更具弹性。

Autonomous systems are an increasing part of the infrastructure of daily life. As the range and importance of such systems increases and the underlying technology rapidly develops, the UKRI has funded a range of investigatory research "nodes" to address the trustworthiness of autonomous systemsAs part of this large, interdisciplinary project, the Psychology Department at Lancaster University is exploring the resilience of emergency response systems for disasters and emergencies that include both humans and autonomous systems. We examine the interaction of ordinary citizens, emergency services (police, ambulance, fire service) and different types of technology (drones, robots) in emergency response.Social Identity processes are now recognised as being key to understanding how ordinary people respond to emergencies. At the same time, social identity processes are increasing recognised as being key to the way emergency services operate in emergencies. This PhD project will explore the potential contribution of social identity ideas for how the relationship between humans and technologies can be supported to make for more resilient emergency response.
