In recent years, automation systems that conduct human physical and cognitive tasks
on people’s behalf are coming to join our everyday life. In this article, first, we define
automation systems as a third artifact, compared with primitive tools that support
human physical activities and cognitive artifacts that support human cognitive activi-
ties. Second, we review three branches of researches investigated in the research field
of human-automation system interaction, and show the importance of the function of
trust when making a relationship with automation systems. Finally, we show common-
alities and differences in the nature of trust for human-human and human-automation
system interaction.
