🏆 The Adamic-Glance winner of this year is @kous2v.bsky.social, for foundational work in using social media and multimodal sensing data #icwsm

IC PhD students @niharika1011 (L) & @JCForiest (R) will be heading to Wisconsin next week to attend the HCI Consortium & share their work on AI explanations & tech-mediated violence, respectively. IPaT is proud to support them & join the convo on the future of HCI & genAI! #HCIC

We're proud to have students like @JCForiest. Her research on abating violence through technology has led to award-winning papers @acm_chi and @ACM_CSCW, and she's driving the U.S. expansion of the Cardiff Model for Violence Prevention. @gtcomputing b.gatech.edu/4dCBfV6

First there was electricity, then the internet, now #LLMs. OK, we’re skipping a lot of history, but large-language models (LLMs) are a pretty big deal. Meet the next wave of inventors from @GeorgiaTech who are part of this new computing revolution. Highlighted are Munmun De Choudhury (@munmun10) and Mohit Chandra (@mohit__30), working on cracking an important issue in mental health—can #AI chatbots accurately identify patients’ adverse reactions to psychiatric medication, and, if so, also provide timely effective advise to minimize harm? Learn the answers at the link and meet all of Tech’s talent at @naacl this week. The Land of #LLMs awaits 🗺️🔍: sites.gatech.edu/research/naacl… #GTComputing #TogetherWeCompute #ChangeTheGame

How can we better think & talk about human-like qualities attributed to language technologies like LLMs? In our #CHI2025 paper, we taxonomize how text outputs from cases of user interactions w/ language technologies can contribute to anthropomorphism arxiv.org/abs/2502.09870 1/n

Super excited to announce our workshop on aging in place @ CHI 2025! More details to follow soon..come join us in Japan, we have a stellar list of organizers (see below)! For more details on workshop themes, see bit.ly/49lJraf w @alisha_pradhan @DeanBethMynatt @jlwaycott
