Such oversight is critical, as undetected errors can have serious consequences or undermine the benefits of AI. Effective oversight, however, depends not only on detecting and correcting AI errors but also on the motivation and engagement of the oversight personnel and the meaningfulness they see in their work. Yet little is known about how domain experts approach and experience the oversight task and what should be considered to design effective and motivational interfaces that support human oversight. To address these questions, we conducted four co-design workshops with domain experts from psychology and computer science. We asked them to first oversee an AI-based grading system, and then discuss their experiences and needs during oversight. Finally, they collaboratively prototyped interfaces that could support them in their oversight task. Our thematic analysis revealed four key user requirements: understanding tasks and responsibilities, gaining insight into the AI\u2019s decision-making, contributing meaningfully to the process, and collaborating with peers and the AI. We integrated these empirical insights with the SMART model of work design to develop a framework of twelve design considerations with increased transferability compared to the identified user requirements. Our framework links interface characteristics and user requirements to the psychological processes underlying effective and satisfying work. Being grounded in work design theory and overlapping with existing guidelines for human\u2013AI interaction, we expect these considerations to be applicable across domains and discuss how they go beyond existing guidelines for human-AI interaction to inform the design of engaging and meaningful interfaces that support human oversight of AI-based systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Link:<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/dl.acm.org\/doi\/10.1145\/3742413.3789100\">https:\/\/dl.acm.org\/doi\/10.1145\/3742413.3789100<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New paper accepted to the Proceedings of the 31st International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces.
