Giuseppe Manco

Giuseppe Manco is a Researcher at ICAR-CNR (Institute of High Performance Computing and Networking), part of the National Research Council of Italy (Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche).

Dr. Manco's research focuses on integrating symbolic AI with differentiable AI approaches to develop advanced recommendation systems. His work aims to move beyond conventional recommendation patterns by creating systems that provide users with novel, diverse, and surprising content suggestions they might not have discovered otherwise. He explores how to encode human knowledge, emotions, and feelings directly into machine learning algorithms, establishing a two-way interaction between humans and AI systems.

His vision for European AI development centers on creating systems that anticipate user needs people aren't yet aware of, building upon current connected technologies to deliver enhanced user experiences where AI proactively fulfills unexpressed requirements. This research contributes to the broader field of human-centered AI that prioritizes meaningful interaction between users and intelligent systems.
