    Application deadline:
    The position will be at the newly found Research Center Trustworthy Data Science and Security. The RC Trust addresses the trustworthiness of intelligent systems in safety-critical applications. Its human-centered research approach covers the entire interdisciplinary research of trustworthy data analytics, explainable machine learning, and privacy-aware algorithms.

    The project
    People interact increasingly with technology powered by artificial intelligence (AI). This project aims to explore people's perceptions of and interactions with AI-based systems in their daily lives.

    Utilizing experience sampling methods, we will gather real-time data on participants' thoughts, feelings, experiences, and behaviors as they encounter and interact with various forms of AI in their daily lives.

    This longitudinal approach will enable us to understand the nuanced dynamics of human-AI interaction and its implications for technology design and policy.

    Your main tasks
    Scientific collaboration and independent research in our research projects and experiments.

    You will contribute to gaining a better understanding of how emerging technologies shape people's thoughts and behavior with the eventual aim of informing the responsible design of such technology.

    For this purpose, you will work together with a team of experts who can guide you but also have the opportunity to develop your own research focus and supervise PhD students in their work.

    In addition, you will take on the implementation and execution of teaching and administrative tasks.

    a quiet, research-oriented atmosphere while being close to leisure and cultural facilities of the Ruhr metropolis and the Rhineland, one of Europe's largest but also greenest metropolitan areas with the highest university density in Germany
