Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is concerned with the symbol-manipulation processes that produce intelligent action; that is, acts that are arrived at by intelligible reasoning steps that are guided by knowledge of a particular domain. AI areas relevant to human factors and automation include expert systems, natural-language understanding, and intelligent robotics. These topics are reviewed and illustrated. Potential contributions of human factors research to AI are briefly described.
