New Study: A Lack of Intelligence, Not Training, May Be Why People Struggle With Computers

Training alone cannot bridge the digital divide. The findings suggest a fundamental rethink of interface design is needed, as complex systems inherently disadvantage those with different cognitive capabilities.

"... awkwardly designed interfaces have become a driver for the digital divide," says Oulasvirta.

How should the use of AI be disclosed when it is used to write a research paper or a novel? Does it matter whether the AI improved clarity or contributed novel ideas? How does AI's involvement affect the work's authenticity?

These questions will be addressed in a new workshop at CHIWORK 2025:

Navigating Generative AI Disclosure, Ownership, and Accountability in Co-Creative Domains.

Submit your work by April 24. https://chiwork-aidisclosure.github.io/

Observation for #HCI / #CSCW: Rather than submitting to specific conferences, I should encourage the international students in my lab to submit to #TOCHI (etc.) so that they can *choose* any ACM presentation venue that works, even if it takes much longer to be accepted.

Hi, I'm new to Mastodon :D
I'm considering to join a master degree in #HCI somewhere in Europe. I completed a Bachelor's in Computer Science and I wanted to do something more "AI resistant".
Do you think this choice makes sense?

Huzzaah \o/ a topic I care deeply about, designing for, with and by people in sensitive or vulnerable context. I have been allowed to co-organize this workshop at the decennial (thats once every 10 years) #Aarhus2025 conference. its not a big conference but I am probably as close to a son of the Aarhus approach to #design and #HCI as one can be.

#AskFedi I am looking for books, articles, posts and research papers on the user experience and user interface / HCI design of *command line applications*

Please boost.

Looking for a validated questionnaire to measure people's interaction experience with social robots, chatbots, or any artificial social agents? You are in for a treat as the Artificial Social Agent Questionnaire (ASAQ) is out now. It comes with a comparative dataset and practical guidance on sample sizes and visualising results

Had the pleasure of visiting IT University Copenhagen and meet Mike, Rune and @elisamekler. I presented my research in modeling interactive experiences with "Aiming, Pointing, Steering" which won the best paper award at the CHI PLAY conference last year. The paper presents basic interaction patterns that games are built of, more info here:

Thanks Elisa and Mike for the arrangements!
