Classic 1983 paper by Lisanne Bainbridge examining the ironies of automation, arguing that the more advanced the automatic system, the more crucial human intervention becomes, and that removing the operator from direct control can introduce new types of failure.
AI Watchdog is a browser-based agent interface that detects manipulative dark patterns in AI conversations, such as sycophancy and brand bias, and alerts users in real-time. Experimental results showed that just-in-time warnings without cognitive forcing significantly reduced compliance with AI-steered recommendations containing dark patterns.
This 1996 paper by Gentner and Nielsen explores alternative user interfaces by reversing the core design principles of the Macintosh, leading to a language-based, expert-user-oriented interface.
This paper compares socio-technical design principles with guidelines for human-centered AI, analyzing their similarities and differences to inform future AI design approaches.
This paper presents a qualitative study based on interviews with CS researchers, revealing a paradox of pragmatic skepticism where researchers distrust LLM leaderboard rankings yet continue to use them as rough guides. It finds that peer networks are primary for model selection, arena-based leaderboards are preferred, and cost transparency is the most demanded feature.
This paper presents PrivacyAkinator, an interactive tool that helps novice developers articulate privacy design decisions via LLM-generated multiple-choice questions, achieving 47% more key decisions in 73% less time compared to NIST's PRAM methodology.
This position paper explores 'banal deception' in generative AI, arguing that subtle manipulation is becoming normalized in chatbot interactions and requires new safeguards.
This paper presents a framework for Human-Centered Large Language Models (HCLLMs), integrating HCI and NLP perspectives to prioritize human values throughout the model development lifecycle.
A robotics engineer from Hugging Face proposes mapping human facial expressions onto non-humanoid robots to enhance expressiveness while avoiding the uncanny valley, with plans to use this data for autonomous body language training.
Daniel Edrisian left OpenAI's Codex team to found Blackstar, a hardware startup focused on revolutionizing human-computer interaction through OS-level changes for AI communication.
This scoping review analyzes 81 articles (2022-2025) examining the use of generative AI for creating and evaluating user personas, identifying strengths in reproducibility but critical issues including lack of evaluation in 45% of studies, over-reliance on GPT models (86%), and risks of circularity where the same model generates and evaluates personas.
MIT researchers developed VisiPrint, an AI-powered preview tool that helps 3D printing users visualize the aesthetic outcome (color, texture, gloss) of printed objects to reduce waste and improve design accuracy.
