AI-generated influencers are rapidly gaining popularity on Chinese short-video platforms, often adopting kinship-based roles such as AI grandchildren to attract older adults. Although this trend has raised public concern, little is known…
We present pathways of investigation regarding conversational user interfaces (CUIs) for children in the classroom. We highlight anticipated challenges to be addressed in order to advance knowledge on CUIs for children. Further, we discuss…
IUIs aim to incorporate intelligent automated capabilities in human computer interaction, where the net impact is a human-computer interaction that improves performance or usability in critical ways. It also involves designing and…
Human-AI co-creativity involves humans and AI collaborating on a shared creative product as partners. In a creative collaboration, communication is an essential component among collaborators. In many existing co-creative systems users can…
Mobile and wearable interfaces and interaction paradigms are highly constrained by the available screen real estate, and the computational and power resources. Although there exist many ways of displaying information to mobile users,…
People with visual impairments perceive their environment non-visually and often use AI-powered assistive tools to obtain textual descriptions of visual information. Recent large vision-language model-based AI-powered tools like Be My AI…
Serious illness conversations (SICs) align care with patients' values, goals, and preferences, yet they rarely occur in emergency departments (EDs), where time constraints and emotional burden often leave clinicians making high-stakes…
In pediatrics, patients, caregivers, and clinicians share responsibility for health decisions, but limited collaboration can undermine outcomes. We conducted a qualitative study examining decision-makers perceptions toward collaborative…
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly seen as assistants, copilots, and consultants, capable of supporting a wide range of tasks through natural conversation. However, most systems remain constrained by a linear request-response…
This workshop proposal focuses on best practices in UI/UX design for AI applications aimed at children, emphasising safety, engagement, and ethics. It aims to address the challenge of measuring the safety, trustworthiness, and reliability…
We present the design of an online social skills development interface for teenagers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The interface is intended to enable private conversation practice anywhere, anytime using a web-browser. Users…
People with special needs like blind and visually impaired (BVI) people can particularly benefit from using voice assistants providing spoken information input and output in everyday life. However, it is crucial to understand their needs…
Traditional UX development methodologies focus on developing ``one size fits all" solutions and lack the flexibility to cater to diverse user needs. In response, a growing interest has arisen in developing more dynamic UX frameworks.…
Interior design often struggles to capture the subtleties of client experience, leaving gaps between what clients feel and what designers can act upon. We present AIDED, a designer-AI co-design workflow that integrates multimodal client…
A voice AI agent that blends seamlessly into daily life would interact with humans in an autonomous, real-time, and emotionally expressive manner. Rather than merely reacting to commands, it would continuously listen, reason, and respond…
Language User Interfaces (LUIs) could improve human-machine interaction for a wide variety of tasks, such as playing music, getting insights from databases, or instructing domestic robots. In contrast to traditional hand-crafted approaches,…
Assistive technologies for adults with Down syndrome (DS) need designs tailored to their specific technology requirements. While prior research has explored technology design for individuals with intellectual disabilities, little is…
This paper draws from literature and our experience of conducting Wizard-of-Oz (WoZ) studies using natural language, conversational user interfaces (CUIs) in the automotive domain. These studies have revealed positive effects of using…
Socially Assistive Robots represent a valid solution for improving the quality of life and the mood of older adults. In this context, this work presents the CloudIA robot, a non-human-like robot intended to promote sociality and well-being…
In-person small-group conversations play a crucial role in everyday life; however, facilitating effective group interaction can be challenging, as the real-time nature demands full attention, offers no opportunity for revision, and requires…
