  • Abstract

    Recent enterprise digitalization has transformed workplaces into intelligent environments powered by cloud computing, IoT, big data, AI, and collaborative platforms. Among these technologies, AI has emerged as a key enabler of human–AI collaboration, enhancing decision-making, automating routine tasks, supporting organizational learning, and improving productivity. However, organizations continue to face challenges related to trust, transparency, explainability, ethical governance, interoperability, and employee acceptance.  This paper proposes an **Intelligent Human–AI Collaboration Framework for Future Digital Workplaces** consisting of four stages: workplace data integration, intelligent knowledge processing, collaborative decision intelligence, and adaptive feedback optimization. The framework integrates enterprise data, AI-driven analytics, human expertise, and explainable AI to deliver transparent, adaptive, and trustworthy decision support while maintaining human oversight. It also incorporates responsible AI principles, including fairness, accountability, privacy, and ethical governance. By combining collaborative intelligence with continuous learning, the framework aims to improve decision accuracy, operational efficiency, employee productivity, organizational agility, and sustainable digital transformation across diverse industries.
