Design, Adoption, and Impact of Human-Centered Technologies

Artificial intelligence (AI), immersive systems, and data-driven technologies have become increasingly embedded in organizational and societal infrastructures. The question is no longer whether technologies perform efficiently, but whether they are designed, adopted, and governed in ways that align with human values. Human-centered technologies represent a paradigm shift, one that emphasizes usability, emotional alignment, trust, ethics, sustainability, and societal impact alongside technological advancement. Further exploration may reveal the conceptual foundations, adoption mechanisms, and broader consequences of human-centered technological innovation. Design, Adoption, and Impact of Human-Centered Technologies explores how human-centered principles are embedded into the design of intelligent systems. It examines how individuals and organizations respond to these technologies, and how their implementation reshapes behaviors, strategies, and performance. This book covers topics such as e-commerce, interactive technologies, and sentiment analysis, and is a useful resource for business owners, engineers, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
