This position paper argues that AI-assisted deliberation offers a more promising path by lowering barriers to meaningful engagement without substituting machine judgment for human choice.

Business analytics education requires diverse datasets to support different learning objectives, student backgrounds, and analytical tasks. Real-world data can be difficult to obtain and offer limited flexibility for adapting a case to a particular course. Even when suitable data are available, instructors must investi...
It is found that felt ownership depends on the process of collaboration: people disown work when they merely approve AI's suggestions, but retain ownership when they lead, iterate, or rewrite, but retain ownership when they lead, iterate, or rewrite.

This work presents EgoPHI, the first method that jointly estimates dense contact maps and 3D force distributions on hand and object meshes from a single monocular RGB image and object geometry, and demonstrates that EgoPHI improves force estimation over existing approaches while generalizing to unseen datasets.

While ubiquitous computing research has explored diverse devices for personal health tracking, we know less about multi-device designs for family informatics, where health management is inherently collaborative. To understand how families adopt and perceive ubiquitous access to shared health data across contexts, we ev...

A user study examining the difference in human behavior between an HRT scenario conducted in a virtual vs real environment and found differences in participants's strategy, their mental model of robots, and the type of trust they had for robots between modalities.

Teaching robotics relies on screen-based simulation, showing robot motion in an abstract coordinate frame rather than at real scale in the learner's own space, while access to physical hardware is limited by cost, safety, and scheduling constraints. We present MR-Robotics LAB, a mixed-reality (MR) platform that replays...

This work examines how people reason about GenAI's appropriateness in DSM and conceptualizes this as boundary drawing and shows how making such boundaries visible can support more grounded design, policy, and collective deliberation around GenAI in DSM.
In practice-based design courses such as knit yarn design, students must turn visual ideas into feasible material outcomes. This is difficult because creative decisions are tied to yarn properties, stitch structures, machine operation, and limited opportunities for physical sampling. This study presents an integrated p...
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…
