We've been studying student adoption of LLMs at @coschoolofmines. Get a first glimpse of the university-wide data in our @HRI_Conference workshop paper (https://t.co/S3yYUiQMgr) with @BezabihAlem@ShadiNrz, Bo Wu, and Gabe Fierro.
Pleased to announce our workshop paper "Toward LLM-Powered Social Robots for Supporting Sensitive Disclosures" @HRI_Conference with @ShadiNrz and @EstelleSmithPhD . We explore how social robots can assist in sensitive disclosures, addressing technical, ethical & privacy concerns.
I'm presenting on the release of new reactions on @CaringBridge during the #CSCW2023 Health Support session (chaired by @jesspater) at 2:30pm!
β Product Release: π β‘οΈ ππππ’
β We surveyed 800+ users

I'm presenting on the release of new reactions on @CaringBridge & discussing design opps in computer-mediated communication during health crises.
The health blogging platform @CaringBridge expanded its reactions from 1 π option to a set of 4: ππππ’. How did patient & caregiver users perceive this [contentious!] update?! See new #CSCW2023 work by @EstelleSmithPhD@hannahjean515 & @zwlevonian: https://t.co/Ztaia3bM5Q
Thank you for your emphasis on the concept of deliberately redesigning social media (technology) with a focus on enhancing human well-being and promoting a fulfilling experience, as opposed to exacerbating the frenetic and distracting aspects of contemporary living.π
Future research paradigms can honor & support healthy human spirituality through design. This generous award will open new frontiers in Computational Spiritual Support. I couldn't be more excited to start this journey or more grateful for all of your help along the way πβ€οΈ

What do you think is most likely to happen with the #RedditBlackout?
(Responses 1 & 2 imply the blackout will end; responses 3 & 4 imply the API fees will remain as they are.)
Imagine, a mother uncertain about how to tell her little cute one that s/he has HIVπ. What can technology provide to support parents facing disclosing sensitive health information to children? Our paper at #CHI2023 has answers! https://t.co/Iwdmstj3BP
Congratulations to Alemitu Mequanint Bezabih @BezabihAlem on obtaining her Ph.D. degree with the title "Interactive Technology to Support HIV Management in Adolescents in Ethiopia"!
A student of mine is seeking adult participants who have received a formal ADHD diagnosis. The project aims to understand how tech can support challenging diagnostic processes. There is no participant compensation, but please send a DM if you're interested in a 30-45 min. chat!
