From Clicks to Consensus: Collective Consent Assemblies for Data Governance

Obtaining meaningful and informed consent from users is essential for ensuring autonomy and control over one's data. Notice and consent, the standard for collecting consent, has been criticized. While other individualized solutions have been proposed, this paper argues that a collective approach to consent is worth ex…

How are Vibrotactile Experiences Visually Represented? A Taxonomy of Illustration Characteristics

Vibrotactile experiences (VTX) consist of a multitude of design parameters and experiential dimensions that can be challenging to communicate visually. To understand how this is commonly done in scientific communication, we systematically reviewed VTX illustrations in academic publications. Using inductive and deducti…

Compliant But Unsatisfactory: The Gap Between Auditing Standards and Practices for Probabilistic Genotyping Software

AI governance efforts increasingly rely on audit standards: agreed-upon practices for conducting audits. However, poorly designed standards can hide and lend credibility to inadequate systems. We explore how an audit standard’s design influences its effectiveness through a case study of ASB 018, a standard for auditin…

``What If My Face Gets Scanned Without Consent'': Older Adults' Experiences with Biometric Payment

Biometric payment, i.e., biometric authentication implemented in digital payment systems, can reduce memory demands and streamline payment for older adults. However, older adults' perceptions and practices regarding biometric payment remain underexplored. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 22 Chinese older a…

What is Safety? Corporate Discourse, Power, and the Politics of Generative AI Safety

This work examines how leading generative artificial intelligence companies construct and communicate the concept of "safety" through public-facing documents. Drawing on critical discourse analysis, we analyze a corpus of corporate safety-related statements to explicate how authority, responsibility, and legitimacy ar…

When Feasibility of Fairness Audits Relies on Willingness to Share Data: Examining User Acceptance of Multi-Party Computation Protocols for Fairness Monitoring

Fairness monitoring is critical for detecting algorithmic bias, as mandated by the EU AI Act. Since such monitoring requires sensitive user data (e.g., ethnicity), the AI Act permits its processing only with strict privacy measures, such as multi-party computation (MPC), in compliance with the GDPR. However, the effec…

Scene2Hap: Generating Scene-Wide Haptics for VR from Scene Context with Multimodal LLMs

Haptic feedback contributes to immersive virtual reality (VR) experiences. However, designing such feedback at scale for all objects within a VR scene remains time-consuming. We present Scene2Hap, an LLM-centered system that automatically designs object-level vibrotactile feedback for entire VR scenes based on the obj…

Connected Material Experiences using Bimanual Vibrotactile Crosstalk in Virtual Reality

Perceiving material properties such as elasticity, flexibility, and torsion is inherently bimanual, as we rely on the relative motion of our hands to form a unified sense of materiality. Yet, most vibrotactile material rendering approaches are limited to a single hand or finger. While prior work has explored bimanual…

CHI '26Honorable MentionSocial Platform Design & User Behavior +3

Simple changes to content curation algorithms affect the beliefs people form in a collaborative filtering experiment

Content-curating algorithms provide a crucial service for social media users by surfacing relevant content, but they can also bring about harms when their objectives are misaligned with user values and welfare. Yet, few controlled experiments on the potential behavioral and cognitive consequences of this alignment pro…
