Abstract

Despite the discussion about fully autonomous systems that might reach consciousness and substitute, simulate or even dominate human actors, it has also become an accepted fact that information technologies should serve the purpose of humans. They should, therefor, be designed human-centric. Yet a set of questions need further investigation, discussion, and development: 1) What is human-centricity in different contexts? 2) How can it be assessed? 3) How can it be realized and achieved? 4) What is its relation to other values?
