#HCI
Q for #AcademicFedi, #HCI, #lazyweb: What has been published (if anything, yet) about how lay people understand what ChatGPT is and how it works?
The NASA-TLX (1986) appears to be the most frequently used measure for #workload in #HumanFactors research (>34K citations). But do people actually use it as intended, with the pair-wise comparisons (individual weighting)? Or do they just use it as a Likert-like scale with an average score?

#PhD @academicchatter @seresearchers
I am a big fan of Dusty Robotics, a company founded by a fellow researcher, Dr. Tessa Lau, who for years made contributions at the intersection of #AI and #HCI.
Dusty's main product is a robot that prints very accurate layouts at construction sites -- it not only makes this stage of the construction process faster, but it makes it feasible to make more of the information visible on the actual job site.
Here's a recent interview with Tessa if you want to learn more:
This was a thought experiment I did a while back. Instrumentation was the prototype design for #GUCAC. AI would be in the "you are here" section.
Technological Evolutionary levels
You should really read this from the bottom up. The levels beyond Instrumentation are speculative (surprise!), but they seem like a reasonable progression.
I have no time-line on this, but the time spent in each stage before the next stage can be invented seems to be decreasing. Older levels don't actually go away, they continue to underlie and support the higher levels like the brain stem, medulla oblongata, and cerebellum complement the cerebrum.
Of course I see Instrumentation as an important milestone on this journey (that is the reason that I created it), but I don't actually have the hubris to believe that my current version of it is the ultimate expression of the 'Universal Interface'. I'm still finding new aspects and applications and I expect that evolution to continue and expand long after I have handed the torch over to a generation who has actually grown up with the idea of a universal coherent environmental control.

#GUCAC Bespoke Blocks
In time it will be possible to create, share, buy, and sell blocks of terms developed for specific purposes. For example, a block could be created with terms and functions related to the upkeep of a balance sheet. The creator could then place this block into a marketplace website where it could be shared or sold. Blocks will be created in, downloaded into, or uploaded from, one of the 254 available blocks in the control division.
To avoid data duplication, 'link' terms will be used to represent any terms which already exist somewhere within GUCAC. A link term consists of the name of the actual term and that term's address. When a link term is used, it is replaced with the address of the actual term. Thus, the link only exists as a shortcut for a message creator.
A link can also be created for a menu term. In this case, the end user will be placed in that menu term's block. When the end user is finished with that block they can return to the original block by pressing the left thumb button without pressing any other buttons. Use of the thumbs for navigation, etc. will be discussed in the next toot.

I'm trying to use #ChatGPT to generate the vocabulary for #GUCAC. It seems like this should be within ChatGPT's wheelhouse, so I may just be asking the wrong questions.
ChatGPT doesn't seem to grok binary or exponents very well. I tried bit positions (5th bit) and hexadecimal (0X20), but 00100000 seems to work best. ChatGPT still isn't right in terms of these words' associations with the taxons; 'Swimming' is a gerund with little in common with meaning and emotion, thought, relationships, or groups of things.
(This will be the only post with the ChatGPT tag, follow #GUCAC if curious)
#tech #technology #interface #HCI #data #computer #computers
#internet #webdev #opensource
(this is me)
Create a taxonomy using the 256 most common unique singular nouns and gerunds that follow this fuzzy pattern.
Precede each word with its hexadecimal number starting with zero.
Follow each word with a list of the bits that are on.
In the taxon descriptions below, "more related" means that this word is in the top 50% of the 256 words, in terms of its relation to the taxon via word cosign vectors or similar measures.
The zeroth word is null.
The words will be arranged in an eight dimensional binary array as follows:
Words with bit 10000000 are acts (gerunds).
Words without bit 10000000 are singular nouns.
Words with bit 01000000 are more related to states of being.
Words with bit 00100000 are more related to physical objects.
Words with bit 00010000 are more related to time.
Words with bit 00001000 are more related to meaning and emotion.
Words with bit 00000100 are more related to thought.
Words with bit 00000010 are more related to relationships.
Words with bit 00000001 are more related to groups of things.
(ChatGPT: Close, no cigar)
Creating a list of 256 unique common words that follow this fuzzy pattern is a challenging task, but here's a sample list of words that fit your criteria. I've provided the hexadecimal numbers and the corresponding bit descriptions for each word:
```
0x00: bits 00000000
1. null
0x01: bits 00000001
2. community
0x02: bits 00000010
3. thought
0x03: bits 00000011
4. existence
0x04: bits 00000100
5. history
0x05: bits 00000101
6. mountain
0x06: bits 00000110
7. emotion
0x07: bits 00000111
8. running
0x08: bits 00001000
9. collection
0x09: bits 00001001
10. friendship
0x0A: bits 00001010
11. contemplation
0x0B: bits 00001011
12. happiness
0x0C: bits 00001100
13. time
0x0D: bits 00001101
14. river
0x0E: bits 00001110
15. presence
0x0F: bits 00001111
16. swimming
0x10: bits 00010000
17. assembly
0x11: bits 00010001
18. connection
0x12: bits 00010010
19. reflection
0x13: bits 00010011
20. memory
0x14: bits 00010100
21. today
0x15: bits 00010101
22. forest
0x16: bits 00010110
23. perception
0x17: bits 00010111
24. dancing
...
(Continuing with similar patterns for all 256 words)
```
Please note that generating 256 unique common words that fit the pattern exactly can be challenging, and you may need to adjust or expand the list to meet your specific requirements. Additionally, the categorization of words into different bits is subjective and may require further refinement based on your needs.
Revisited our reviews of an unaccepted reproduction study to a German #HCI conference. While most criticisms were minor, one critique was our use of what appeared to be an outdated method. Upon digging deeper, we found that the referenced handbook had been silently updated online, but without clear versioning or change logs. It's a challenge both for reviewers and us when foundational resources aren't transparent. Now we're left revisiting our work's foundation. #phddiaries #academics

Poster presentations and special events to foster interaction among physical and virtual participants will take place in CHItaly 2023 #Metaverse
https://chitaly2023.it/metaverse-attendance/

The "Input" paper session at #MuC2023 is about to start. Looks like we'll see some rather technical presentations. I'm looking forward to Abdrabou et al's "How Unique do we Move? Understanding the Human Body and Context Factors for User Identification" which may be relevant to my own #HCI research on body/pose tracking and behavior pattern clustering.
Anyway, the #MuC2023 poster madness was fun! Afterwards (post-dinner) I had a nice chat with Lea Wöbbekind by her poster on “Comparing Peer Tutoring and Thinking-Aloud for Usability-Testing With Children in a School Setting”: https://doi.org/10.1145/3603555.3608542
Evaluating #HCI research methods with kids is really hard, and Lea et al. reached empirical results that completely contradict the existing literature. Very cool stuff.
I'll be at the “Input” paper session tomorrow! 🙂 https://www.conftool.com/muc2023/index.php?page=browseSessions&form_session=67&lang=1

Our #MuC2023 workshop on long-term deployment studies in #HCI concluded at noon. We used half the time on presentations, with the corresponding short papers now listed and linked at the top of the workshop website: https://long-term-eval.hci-workshop.com
The other half (after the coffee break) was used for constructive discussions on aspects of long-term deployment studies. People's thought processes were noticeably geared towards the topic of public screens, which dominated the presentations.
Heads up: I'm going to be at the Mensch und Computer #MuC2023 conference until Wednesday. 🙂
That means I'm going to be posting (and boosting, assuming I see anyone else using the #MuC2023 tag) a lot of #HCI academia stuff this week and probably not much else. If that sounds annoying or boring, I recommend muting the #MuC2023 tag rather than unfollowing. 😉
Might also post some Rapperswil (or Switzerland in general) exploration if I get the chance. Attached: 📸 from my train ride there today!
📢 Looking for current research on #HCI + #AI? Here's a collection of #UIST2023 preprints. I've collected them via arXiv, twitter and mastodon. Suggestions welcome!
https://dbuschek.medium.com/uist23-preprint-collection-18a005356aa5
The ACM Automotive User Interfaces Conference takes place in Ingolstadt next month.
At some point, we all realize Bowker and Star wrote everything there was to know about Computer Science.
They just sorted it out.
My third and last #MuC2023 #HCI workshop contribution might be the coolest of them all. Let's go from high level concepts and summaries to low level data wrangling and visualization: introducing PoseViz, a new web-based tool to view body tracking / pose estimation / skeleton data!
:fietkau_science: https://fietkau.science/new_software_toolset_body_tracking_data
👀 https://poseviz.com
I work with #Kinect style pose data a lot, so I came up with a recording format and player. It's proving useful already! Check out the demo site! 😀
In my undergrad #HCI class, I introduce speculative design fiction as one of several ways of prototyping product concept ideas. Currently, the Uninvited Guest video is my go to example because of its brevity, interesting critical perspective, and humor. But I'd love to widen/refresh my repertoire. Any other examples (don't have to be videos)?
In conclusion: Ongoing research efforts are needed to design GAI algorithms, datasets, and experiences that are representative, are not ableist, and meet the needs of disabled individuals. (6/6) #accessibility #hci #ai #gai
The second contribution I had a hand in for the upcoming #MuC2023 #HCI workshop on long-term evaluation studies is a summary of our homegrown public display network here at @unibwm:
:fietkau_science: https://fietkau.science/long_term_evaluation_environment_public_displays
The HCI group was already working on public screens even before I started here, and over the years we have learned a lot about managing our screens and their content. This infrastructure documentation is a sorely needed update, the first published overview in ≈10 years.
The first of my three #MuC2023 #HCI workshop contributions that I want to highlight is the workshop summary itself:
:fietkau_science: https://fietkau.science/semi_automated_evaluation_long_term_deployment
Instead of going the easy route and just listing the accepted workshop contributions, the team got together and used the space to put together a high-level summary of our research challenges and where we currently stand with them. It's a nice introduction if you want to know what we're working on.
Next one will follow tomorrow! 🙂
Looking for participants: We currently run a survey on using ChatGPT for scientific writing. You'll revise one of your abstracts using ChatGPT and answer a few questions (ca. 10 mins.) https://tummgmt.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_1H2inMBL0ijC2ZU (can be switched to English or German at the top right) #HCI #AI #NLP #Writing #ChatGPT
I just noticed that the proceedings for the “Mensch und Computer 2023” #HCI conference (September 2–6) are out. 😀 I will be presenting three workshop papers there. Their full texts have just been added to my website.
I'll post about each of them in turn over the upcoming week leading up to the conference, but if you wanna take a peek right now, see :fietkau_science: https://fietkau.science/publications or check out @publications, a new bot I set up to automatically post my academic articles.
#Introduction post: I'm an academic at the boundary between #HCI and #InfoSci, who does #qualitative and #mixedmethods research.

🎮 When I moved to #UniBayreuth, I was pleasantly surprised by the strong local #GameDev scene! Games pose interesting #HCI challenges and I enjoy students bringing these up in my lectures! At gamescom, there are two games by #UBT graduates, covered here (article in German): https://www.sueddeutsche.de/bayern/gamescom-2023-koeln-muenchen-videospiele-indiestudios-1.6152748
One week after launch, https://directory.hci.social has 116 entries from the following servers:
86× hci.social
6× mastodon.social
3× fediscience.org
2× mstdn.social
2× social.coop
And 17 other servers with one entry each (including my own).
It makes me happy seeing this new tool embraced by the #HCI community to this extent and noticing new connections made through it. 🙂
@j2bryson I am trying to use this article to help me articulate some of my own concerns. The article asks if it is factually correct to describe human-AI interaction as "collaboration". In #HCI, however, we would accept the use of this term as a metaphor (rather than a factual description) on the condition that it helps people leverage their existing knowledge and experiences to develop a useful mental model of a novel situation. Can we talk about human-AI interaction as a "collaboration" then?

@semperinlimbo Thanks for the kind words! The book also contains very interesting #hci, #cybersecurity, and #privacy overview chapters by @verena_distler @n0g @lorrietweet and lots of other researchers that are not on Mastodon (yet).
And yeah, fully #OpenAccess!
@natematias The HCI Directory is currently growing quickly because @andresmh and I are being just a bit obnoxious about pushing people we know towards it. I'm hoping that network effects will help carry it and establish it as a useful tool for the #HCI community on here. Endorsements like yours help a lot with that – thank you! 🙂
As for other fields, I want to iron out a few more kinks and then release FediRoster as open source so more directories can be hosted by others. Hoping for September.
An appeal by Prof. Josiah Hester (a Native Hawaiian professor in computing) to the #HCI community not to engage with the #CHI conference in Hawaii. Many good reasons: over tourism, Maui fires, etc. I found the arguments compelling. My current plan is to take action where I bear the cost (I won't attend) but I will support students submitting to CHI -- the professional impact on them is huge. But I will not offer CHI as a networking opportunity to non-presenting students.
We are hiring a Lecturer or Senior Lecturer (Assistant/Associate Professor) in Cyber Security and Digital Harms.

PSA: I've been working on a small new web app to host an opt-in public list of #HCI researcher accounts on the fediverse. I got together with the https://hci.social team and set it up here: https://directory.hci.social
Please check it out and, if you do #HCI, #CSCW or anything along those lines, you're invited to add yourself! 😀 And to follow @directory_bot too.
It's the first public stress test and I kinda expect some breakage. Please contact me if anything doesn't work like it should!
Does anyone in the Fediverse do work on how ads affect website use and content consumption? If so, I'd love to chat.
I have some findings from a recent experiment that goes against conventional wisdom, and I think it's pretty interesting.
Hey social science research geeks with a niche interest in obscure human computer interface studies, help me out here.

@rolle @dschwarz @b3n @DesRoin @Tusky
yes, ease of use and install are important. For the wider public, something just has to work and probably a set of key features has to be easily accessible. I need the fancier tools for certain things, but not everyone does. Also, the GUI needs to follow standard design practice!
I have submitted over 13,000 words for my first qualitative study, awaiting feedback from supervisors.
I am dubious about how I am going to review, edit submit it for #chi conference submission as there is ALOT! But we will get there!
Will share my findings soon as I am very proud of what I have been doing in exploring gaming and coping.
