ABSTRACTIn this paper, we present a novel application where Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) meets Artificial Intelligence (AI) and discuss obstacles that need to be resolved on the long journey from research to production. Unlike academia and industries that have been at the forefront of automation for decades, government is a new player in the field, though an important one. We build systems that are used on a large scale, we collect data to inform policymakers. Using the example of the Household Budget Survey, we demonstrate how government agencies can apply Human-in-the-Loop AI to automate the production of official statistics. The aim is time and resource saving on repetitive, labour-intensive tasks which machines are good at, allowing humans to focus on value added tasks requiring flexibility and intelligence. One major challenge is the human factor. How will the users, who are accustomed to manual tasks, react to the complexity of AI? How should we design the interface to give them a good user experience? How do we measure success? Indeed, one key step towards production is to secure funding, which requires presenting potential success in a way that the stakeholder can understand. Stressing the importance of formulating problems from a practical business viewpoint, we hope to bridge the communication gap and help the research community reach out to more potential users and help solve more novel real-world problems. |
