Beyond Bias: Participatory and Reflective Approaches to Cultural AI

Generative AI systems increasingly shape cultural production, yet creative intentions, cultural meanings, and interpretive practices often can't be articulated through computational metrics alone. This paper presents Beyond Bias, a collaboration between Gooey.AI and Goethe-Institut India, as a participatory approach to...

Beyond Prompt-to-App: Accountable Translation in Teacher-Facing Agentic Authoring

Accountable translation is developed as an analytic framework for making consequential changes attributable, inspectable, scoped in validation, and contestable, and extends HCI accounts of traceability and end-user debugging by locating professional authority and repair rights across heterogeneous technical and organiz...

Matched Starts, Divergent Objects: How Human-AI Collaboration Forms What It Explains

Scholarly knowledge is typically encountered in stabilized form, while the process histories through which research objects, claims, and contributions acquire form remain largely hidden. This study examines how human-AI scholarly collaboration develops under matched starting conditions and whether those conditions stab...

EyeMakeYou: Identity-, Task-, and Subjective-State-Conditioned Diffusion for High-Frequency Gaze Synthesis

Eye movement biometrics (EMB) is an emerging behavioral modality for user authentication, particularly in virtual- and augmented-reality systems, where gaze dynamics contain distinctive subject-specific features. However, robust EMB systems require diverse, high-quality gaze recordings that are expensive to collect and...

Auditing Bias and Safety in Voice AI Customer Care

Voice AI systems increasingly mediate customer care interactions where caller presentation cues such as accent, affect, fluency, and urgency are available alongside the service request. Existing fairness and safety evaluations cover speech recognition disparities, spoken dialogue bias, and voice agent capability, but r...

Hidden In Plain Gaze: Gaze Representations as Privacy Controls for Utility and Re-identification Risk in XR

This work studies whether gaze data representation choice can serve as a lightweight privacy control at feature extraction, before adding perturbation or formal privacy mechanisms, and compares three gaze representations under matched model capacity.

Label Over Logic? How Source Cues Bias Human Fallacy Judgments More Than LLMs

As AI-generated and AI-assisted content floods online spaces, source labels attached to such content can distort human reasoning judgments, with downstream consequences for moderation, evaluation, and decision-making. Whether LLMs share this vulnerability, or offer more source-agnostic evaluation, remains an open quest...

The Fake Friend Dilemma: Relational Trust and the Political Economy of Conversational AI

As conversational AI systems become a larger part of the media landscape, they raise questions about whose interests they serve and the risks they may pose to users. These systems do more than provide information: they increasingly offer advice and companionship through interfaces that can appear supportive and sociall...

Role-Aware Artificial Intelligence Across Augmentation and Automation in Human-Machine Symbiosis

The evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) has rendered the boundary between humanity and computational machinery increasingly ambiguous. In the presence of more interwoven relationships within human-machine symbiosis, the very notion of AI-generated information becomes difficult to define, as such information arise...

Formally verifying agent-written full-stack web apps with PDD Kit

AI agents can generate code at a scale that’s hard for humans to review line-by-line. PDD Kit helps ensure the code is doing what the developer intended by creating formal specifications and testing against them. It converts developer intent into a Verus specification, proves AI-generated code meets it for every input, and uses tests where proofs aren't practical. Developers review intent, not every line. The post Formally verifying agent-written full-stack web apps with PDD Kit appeared first o…

Q&A: How AI came to model the “messy” human mind

Assistant Professor Benjamin Lindquist studies how engineers deliberately injected randomness into early AI, giving rise to deep-learning models that sometimes hallucinate.
