Participatory AI Justice in HCI: A Scoping Review

Participatory design is increasingly used to address the negative social impacts of artificial intelligence (AI), aiming for more inclusive and equitable innovation. However, it can inadvertently reproduce injustice and reinforce power imbalances, even with good intentions. While the HCI community is critical of these…

Going Beyond the I With CI: an Interview-based Design Space

Deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) individuals using cochlear implants (CIs) often have regular jobs or enroll in mainstream education where they face complex social challenges. While first HCI interventions targeted this group’s communication skills, or compensated for limited sound perception, we instead focused on expe…

Remembering with Reminiscope: Codesigning with Generative AI for Reminiscence Among Older Adults

Generative AI has shown the potential to support older adults to reminisce about the past by producing personalized memory-related content despite the person's varied ability to elaborate or the lack of memory cues. We present two studies to investigate how generative AI can support older adults in individual and grou…

Mapping Social Media Dependency: Functional and Psychological Platform Reliance as Mechanisms of Digital Vulnerability

Social media dependency is a central mechanism through which digital vulnerability takes shape, making it critical to understand for research, design, and policy. This study distinguishes between functional dependency (needs-based reliance) and psychological dependency (compulsive engagement) and investigates how thes…

CHI '26Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) +1

Verbal Descriptors for Electrotactile Stimulation

Electrotactile stimulation can evoke a wide range of sensations, including taps, squeezes, and strokes. Although verbal descriptors are available for vibrotactile and ultrasound stimuli, a comprehensive list has not been developed for electrotactile experiences. To address this, we used a text normalization approach t…

Resisting The Matrix: Perceptions of Manipulative Designs Among Vulnerable Users

Manipulative designs - so-called "dark patterns'' - as ubiquitous design practices that can cause harm online are increasingly discussed among scholars and policymakers. While academia shows an increased interest in designing counter-interventions, the impact of manipulative designs on users in situations of vulnerabi…

Changing Health Goals with Personal Informatics

People’s health goals change as their contexts, needs, and values evolve. Personal informatics (PI) literature recognizes the importance of supporting goal change; however, little is known about how these tools can best support the changes people go through with their goals. To understand how PI are currently involved…

Let’s Talk Menopause: Promoting Intergenerational Dialogue about Menopause through Design

Menopause is an important life transition characterised by physiological, emotional, and social changes. It is surrounded by stigma and taboo. Thus, conversations about menopause are often rare, even among family members, and people often don’t know what to expect from menopause. We leverage design and collaborative m…

Enhancing Visitor Engagement in Interactive Art Exhibitions with Visual-Enhanced Conversational Agents

Conversational agents in art exhibitions can enhance user engagement and understanding of artworks by providing contextual information, especially through voice interactions. However, creating a deeper personal connection with art - which often requires direct aesthetic and visual experiences - remains a challenge. Th…

Artificial Intimacy: Exploring Normativity and Personalization through Fine-tuning LLM Chatbots

Fine-tuning Large Language Models (LLMs) is one response to the critique of LLMs being biased, erasing diversity, and raising ethical concerns. The Artificial Intimacy project employs artistic methods, taking personalization of chatbots to an extreme by fine-tuning LLMs on individual social media data. We find that re…
