Abstract

Continuous increase in computing power and more available data contribute to AI maturing, enabling an efficient and powerful human-AI collaboration. As a result, the nature of work will change, and more and more AI will be involved in joint work. In this study, the authors introduce the so-called Virtual Collaborator (VC), an equal partner in digital collaboration, and report the results of a conducted online study. Based on the results of our study and current research, the concept of a VC was constructed, which consists of potential roles, tasks, level of autonomy, and behavior. This construct can be used as a guideline to design and implement a VC in collaboration scenarios.
