Dr. Alexandra Diening and Jie Li recently shared insights at the ADRA annual event, discussing the impact of AI and the need for societal awareness around it. Their presentation at the Humane AI Net workshop inspired Dr. Diening to launch the Human-AI Symbiosis Alliance®, focusing on mutual benefits between humans and AI—whether in mutualism, commensalism, or even competitive dynamics. They highlighted the power of synthetic users in participatory design and urged the audience to explore AI capabilities firsthand before forming judgments.

What’s your take? Are we headed for mutualism or competition with AI? Let us know!
