📣 Hey #CHI folks! Have you used an #LLM in your work as part of your *methodology* in #HCI?

E.g. to analyse data from a user study. Or maybe you've encountered this as a reviewer? 🤔

I'm curious to hear your thoughts and experiences or reading suggestions! ✍️ 💡

A 🧵 on our new paper accepted at #CHI2023 - by myself, @elisamekler, Oussama Metatla and Anne Roudaut

How does HCI Understand Human Agency and Autonomy?

We analysed 30 years of HCI research, identifying theoretical, practical & ethical issues. We outline conceptual schemes & practical steps to move forward

arXiv.orgHow does HCI Understand Human Autonomy and Agency?Human agency and autonomy have always been fundamental concepts in HCI. New developments, including ubiquitous AI and the growing integration of technologies into our lives, make these issues ever pressing, as technologies increase their ability to influence our behaviours and values. However, in HCI understandings of autonomy and agency remain ambiguous. Both concepts are used to describe a wide range of phenomena pertaining to sense-of-control, material independence, and identity. It is unclear to what degree these understandings are compatible, and how they support the development of research programs and practical interventions. We address this by reviewing 30 years of HCI research on autonomy and agency to identify current understandings, open issues, and future directions. From this analysis, we identify ethical issues, and outline key themes to guide future work. We also articulate avenues for advancing clarity and specificity around these concepts, and for coordinating integrative work across different HCI communities.
