Human-Computer Interaction Conference - Wisconsin

HCIC 2025: The Future of Being Human in a Generative AI World: Principles, Methods and Education In-person, UW is a member of HCIC, a unique organization that hosts an annual workshop that attracts leading researchers in HCI in a small and collegial environment. The workshop has a relatively unique format, emphasizing more substantial presentations by more established members of the community (e.g. 40 minute presentations with a discussant, there is a rule that students participate throughout the workshop but do not give full presentations). In addition to the many benefits that faculty gain from discussions with such a group, prior faculty and student participants have described it as a great opportunity for strong doctoral students to engage with top HCI researchers (e.g. developing connections for job searches, internships, or collaborations that they felt were based in part on interactions they had with people while at HCIC). Event interval: Ongoing event. Accessibility Contact: humancomputerorg@gmail.com. Event Types: Conferences. Student Activities. Target Audience: All interested in education, research, and technology transfer in Human-Computer Interaction. Sunday, June 15, 2025 – Thursday, June 19, 2025. For more info visit hcic.org.

Generative AI & Accessibility Benefits, Trade Offs, Intersectionality

We are excited that CREATE Ph.D. student Kate Glazko, along with co-author Jun Cha, will speak about their research at this webinar featuring two papers from CHI 2025. Autoethnographic Insights from Neurodivergent GAI “Power Users”  Generative AI has become ubiquitous in both daily and professional life, with emerging research demonstrating its potential as a tool for accessibility. Neurodivergent people, often left out by existing accessibility technologies, develop their own ways of navigating normative expectations. GAI offers new opportunities for access, but it is important to understand how neurodivergent “power users”—successful early adopters—engage with it and the challenges they face.  “We do use it, but not how hearing people think”: How the Deaf and Hard of Hearing Community Uses Large Language Model Tools Sev Huffman will speak about her research on generative AI tools, particularly those utilizing large language models (LLMs). While these tools, increasingly used in everyday contexts,… Event interval: Single day event. Online Meeting Link: https://washington.zoom.us/meeting/register/LuIASLV2QP-M8qvMGZ6pew#/registration.
