Happy to see this out at #CHI2025! Another effort to push for a more central role of designer in the development of LLM-powered applciations through designerly adaptation, enabling mutual shaping of UX design and LLM adaptation (prompting). And we made a Figma widget for it👇
🤖LLMs are being integrated everywhere, but how do we ensure they're delivering meaningful user experiences?
In our #chi2025 paper, we empower designers to think about this via 🎨designerly adaptation🎨 of LLMs and built a Figma widget to help!

Appropriate reliance is key to safe and successful user interactions with LLMs. But what shapes user reliance on LLMs, and how can we foster appropriate reliance?
In our #CHI2025 paper, we explore these questions through two user studies.

As #AI gains a growing space in creation and art, how are the public discourses on AI in the arts shaping creative work?
It what we investigate in a new paper with @katecrawford.bsky.social , @qveraliao.bsky.social, Gonzalo Ramos and Jenny Williams : arxiv.org/abs/2502.03940
