Artificial intelligence (AI) offers a wide range of possibilities in industrial production, but it also presents challenges regarding employee acceptance. AI demonstrators are therefore of central importance, as they enable hands-on experience with AI. However, there has been a lack of systematically identified requirements for demonstrators that specifically promote acceptance and address negative emotions. Using a multi-stage research design, 69 requirements were identified, structured into functional requirements, quality requirements, and boundary conditions.

EU regulations demand more intensive and transparent sustainable practices from companies. Industry needs to adapt many processes and products to take charge of this responsibility. Artificial Intelligence (AI) in particular offers innovative potential. Firstly, however, this technology needs to be evaluated focusing on weak AI—market-ready systems that perform specific tasks using algorithms and data-supported models efficiently.
