Identity Continuity in Long-Term Embodied AI Relationships: From Agent-Specific Identity Representation to Identity-Continuity Appraisal

This article proposes a user-side framework in which long-term embodied AI is represented through an agent-specific identity representation organized by at least three open identity-content domains: embodied-perceptual, psychological-behavioral, and relational-autobiographical.

AI Persona, Service Consumption, and User Intent Entropy: Field Experimental Evidence from an LLM Platform

This work examines how a relational persona - warmer, more empathetic and more engaging than a non-relational persona - affects service consumption and the evolution of user objectives and suggests greater conversational breadth and persistence in AI persona.

Evaluative Dynamics of AI Integration and Expert Performance under Epistemic Dependence across Heterogeneous Stakes

Overall, performance-related recalibration appeared comparatively portable, while integration-structure effects were more selective and context-sensitive, which suggests that system designers should consider how AI enters expert workflows, not only whether it is present.

Deciphering the Babel of Play: A Human-AI Collaborative Approach for Large-Scale Cross-Language Analysis of Game Reviews

A large-scale cross-language analysis of game reviews using a human-AI collaborative framework that combines quantitative screening with multilingual large language models (LLMs) offers empirical insights into cross-cultural game evaluation and a scalable methodological approach to multilingual content analysis that pr...

Measuring Smartphone User Experience through a Hierarchical Metric Framework via Social Media Reviews

Smartphone user experience (UX) is widely expressed in user-generated online discourse across platforms, creating opportunities for in-the-wild measurement at scale. However, existing UX instruments and review-mining approaches do not provide a smartphone-oriented, theory-grounded hierarchical measurement specification...

How Did Writing Change At CHI? Analyzing 44 Years of CHI Writing Before and After the Introduction of Large Language Models

The availability of Large Language Models (LLMs) reshaped scientific discourse at a linguistic level. LLMs are assumed to homogenize academic writing, flattening it into a single generic lexical register. To understand how CHI writing has changed since the public release of LLMs, we analyzed full texts of 14,262 archiv...

When Disability Disclosure Travels: Memory, Privacy, and Contextual Integrity in Conversational AI

Interviewing adults with disabilities in the United States who use LLM-based assistants about when, how, and why they disclose disability to these systems and how this compares with disclosing to people found that participants disclosed by need rather than by name, translating disability into task-scoped instructions.

Explanation Navigator: Rectifying Out-of-Scope Human Interpretations of Leaky AI Explanations through Conversational Guidance

As explanations of artificial intelligence systems proliferate, their recipients must grasp not only what they convey but also recognise what they cannot. We conducted an interview study with nine participants to examine how explainees reason when their information needs exceed the scope of available explanations. Part...

The Choreographic Genome: Amplifying the Silent Structure of Text into Dance

Recent advances in generative artificial intelligence have enabled the synthesis of complex human motion with unprecedented fidelity. However, current text-to-motion systems rely strictly on linguistic semantics: if an input reads"I put my hands up", the model searches for a pose with raised hands, and every non-semant...

Formally verifying agent-written full-stack web apps with PDD Kit

AI agents can generate code at a scale that’s hard for humans to review line-by-line. PDD Kit helps ensure the code is doing what the developer intended by creating formal specifications and testing against them. It converts developer intent into a Verus specification, proves AI-generated code meets it for every input, and uses tests where proofs aren't practical. Developers review intent, not every line. The post Formally verifying agent-written full-stack web apps with PDD Kit appeared first o…

Q&A: How AI came to model the “messy” human mind

Assistant Professor Benjamin Lindquist studies how engineers deliberately injected randomness into early AI, giving rise to deep-learning models that sometimes hallucinate.
