Generative AI (GenAI) has spurred the expectation of being creative, due to its ability to generate content, yet so far, its creativity has somewhat disappointed, because it is trained using existing data following human intentions to…
Generative AI (GenAI) tools are increasingly being adopted in software development as productivity aids, since there is evidence that GenAI tools can improve individual aspects of productivity. However, productivity is multidimensional;…
Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools have seen rapid adoption among software developers. While adoption rates in the industry are rising, the underlying factors influencing the effective use of these tools, including the depth…
The availability and abundance of GenAI tools to administer tasks traditionally managed by people have raised concerns, particularly within the education and academic sectors, as some students may highly rely on these tools to complete the…
Generative AI is directional: it performs well in some task directions and poorly in others. Knowledge work is directional and endogenous as well: workers can satisfy the same job requirements with different mixes of tasks. We develop a…
Background: Recent innovations in generative artificial intelligence (AI) have transformed how programmers develop and maintain software. The advanced capabilities of generative AI tools in supporting development tasks have led to a rise in…
The rise of generative AI presents new opportunities for the understanding and practice of self-care through its capability to generate varied content, including self-care suggestions via text and images, and engage in dialogue with users…
This paper presents JEDAI, an AI system designed for outreach and educational efforts aimed at non-AI experts. JEDAI features a novel synthesis of research ideas from integrated task and motion planning and explainable AI. JEDAI helps users…
This paper examines the impact of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) on scientific practices, conducting a qualitative review of selected literature to explore its applications, benefits, and challenges. The review draws on the…
Socially shared metacognition (SSM) refers to the collective monitoring and regulation of joint cognitive processes in collaborative problem-solving, and is essential for effective knowledge work and learning. Generative AI (GenAI)-based…
Mobile agentic AI is extending autonomous capabilities to resource-constrained platforms such as edge robots and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), where strict size, weight, power, and cost (SWAP-C) constraints and intermittent wireless…
Generative AI models are capable of performing a wide variety of tasks that have traditionally required creativity and human understanding. During training, they learn patterns from existing data and can subsequently generate new content…
Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) presents a governance challenge for STEM assessment. Unrestricted GenAI access enables task outsourcing that undermines the validity of traditional assessments; blanket prohibitions are difficult…
AI agents deployed in assistive roles often have to collaborate with other agents (humans, AI systems) without prior coordination. Methods considered state of the art for such ad hoc teamwork often pursue a data-driven approach that needs a…
The capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) lie along a jagged frontier, where AI systems surprisingly fail on tasks that humans find easy and succeed on tasks that humans find hard. To investigate user reactions to this phenomenon, we…
The "Gen-AI-tecture" project embeds a locally executed, discipline-specific tool into a mixed-methods focus-group design, structured around three research objectives: (a) to evaluate how generative AI tools impact students' creativity in…
Freelance workers must continually acquire new skills to remain competitive in online labor markets, yet they lack the organizational training, mentorship, and infrastructure available to traditional employees. Generative AI-powered tools…
Producing an artificial general intelligence (AGI) has been an elusive goal in artificial intelligence (AI) research for some time. An AGI would have the capability, like a human, to be exposed to a new problem domain, learn about it and…
The rapid adoption of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in research presents both opportunities and ethical challenges that should be carefully navigated. Although GenAI tools can enhance research efficiency through automation of…
Generative UI is transforming interface design by facilitating AI-driven collaborative workflows between designers and computational systems. This study establishes a working definition of Generative UI through a multi-method qualitative…
