In this episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Doris Aschenbrenner from Aalen University. She reflects on her path into academia, what it means to build a career as a professor, and how her experiences in industry continue to shape her work with human-centered technologies.
A central theme of the conversation is hybrid intelligence—the idea that the real potential of AI lies not in replacing humans, but in thoughtfully combining human and artificial intelligence. Doris emphasizes the importance of maintaining a human-centric perspective to guide technological development in a responsible and meaningful direction.
She also shares her personal experiences of often being the only woman in the room, highlighting the need for a more open and diverse engineering community. Her advice to young engineers is clear: seek out environments where you feel a sense of belonging, because that’s where you’ll be best positioned to grow and contribute to advancing technology.
Thank you Doris Aschenbrenner for an open and engaging conversation!
