The goal is to enhance transparency, interpretability, and explainability in AI-driven decision-making processes as well as to increase the acceptance of AI within an industrial manufacturing area. A human AI collaboration tool in perspective. The paper outlines the need of such a framework, describes the proposed design science approach for the development.}, language = {en} }
