Shared an observation/concern with Prof Rogers that users are starting to behave as synthetic users, that they want to ask AI even for answering what 'they think'.
Prof holds optimism that we can mould AI tools into the ones that can empower us and not limit us. Lot of work needed here!

I think all web spaces will become conversational and customizable.
Essentially, these spaces are capable of behaving as users dictate what they want and how they want to see it.

Turns out my only participant who rated our tool very low on NPS actually went on to recommend it and brought in more participants!

Our #HCI workshop "Beyond Quantitative Goals" led by Prof Sas @corinasas.bsky.social is set to explore the future of personal informatics with the integration of qualitative goals.
We invite paper contributions with design concepts!

Movies or research, the last thing you want to do is to throw the message (or RQs) directly at audience (or participants).

In answering questionnaires, think aloud is revealing that participants answer incorrectly for reverse-framed questions (especially complex ones). And when this happens it's the mirror opposite of what they intended.

If pre-post user studies measure the change in fitness activity, timing is huge, especially in Western settings.
Just conduct it while approaching summer and you will end up with a significant increase, courtesy of a confound.
How many HCI studies reveal their timing? Rigour weeping in a corner.

Wonder how efficient academic paper reading/skimming must have become post Ctrl-F feature. No other feature is this useful in my experience. Simple yet extremely usable.

HCI focusing on behavior change needs a lot more quant evaluation studies, interventions holding potential, and a desire to establish large effect sizes.

I’m sorry but if your students use AI to write papers and you use AI to grade them zero school is happening. You are running together on a hamster wheel
Why even have a brain, any ideas, any ability to express them, any kind of communication with other people, any desire to solve problems or invent anything, any reason to learn, any use for your eyes or your heart, or any reason to teach or create
