Abstract
This contribution investigates co-creative system design in transhuman settings based on a reflective learning approach. Transhuman settings can be understood as systems of co-creation and co-evolution, laying the groundwork for development processes informed by educational reflection principles. A communication framework and system architecture utilizing explanation facilities of machine learning systems allows for co-constructive intervention and stepwise alignment of objectives, capabilities and interaction, and thereby, induces transformation processes, both for the actors involved and the transhuman setting they are part of. (This chapter is based on the presentation at the IS4SI 2017 Summit Digitalisation for a Sustainable Society in Gothenburg—see also Stary (Multidiscip Digit Publish Inst Proc 1(3):236, 2017).)
