Julian Rasch in the final stretch of his PhD on communication, collaboration and intentions in XR. Julian Rasch LMU Media Informatics Group

We live in a hybrid world - the digital and physical are intertwined. How can we create a positive user experiences in a hybrid world, how to design technologies for this? Sophia Sakel put more questions in this space forward and shared answers from her research. LMU Media Informatics Group

Thomas Weber shared ideas of a new project on the use of generative AI to create software with interactive and human readable specifications. What will software be in the future - developed or just in time created? Who will build software? more questions than answers… LMU Media Informatics Group

How are we transferring ideas, concepts and knowledge between people? Clara Sayffaerth shared ideas of how we can rethink learning and teaching. Excited about a new experiment were we use an life-like avatar to see the impact on learners LMU Media Informatics Group

Visual impairment is very common - and with an aging society challenges are increase and there is still very little research. Jesse Grootjen summarizes his PhD research (which he currently writes up:) on how to detect and mitigate some of these issues. LMU Media Informatics Group Jesse Grootjen

The LMU media informatics doctoral colloquium comes to an end with lots of inspirations and new ideas to go forward! Thanks to DFKI for hosting us. Discussing in depth with our researchers always makes me optimistic about the future - with regard to science and society :) LMU Media Informatics Group

Arrived in Sardinia for IUI2025… a beautiful island - stunning drive from Olbia to Cagliari and morning walk at the coast - already good discussions over breakfast 🙂 looking forward to a lot of inspiration over the week with the latest in intelligent interactive system! LMU Media Informatics Group

Keynote #1 by Albrecht Schmidt happening now! #IUI2025

Pat Pataranutaporn giving interesting insights into false memory creation in humans through malicious (or faulty) LLMs and chatbots. Great work to better understand how LLMs can “brainwash” people (by accident or deliberately). Great presentation… Pat Pataranutaporn Pattie Maes

Rifat Mehreen Amin is presenting her poster on "Designing AI-driven Interfaces for Improved Interaction, Decision-Making, and Explainability" at #iui2025. Great discussions at the poster - a reminder why I like in person conferences... doi.org/10.1145/370855… LMU Media Informatics Group

Is AI better at creating humor than humans? Thomas Weber presented "One Does Not Simply Meme Alone: Evaluating Co-Creativity Between LLMs and Humans in the Generation of Humor" at #iui2025 completely in Memes. Congrats on the honorable mention doi.org/10.1145/370835… LMU Media Informatics Group

I enjoy #IUI2025 a lot - so many insightful discussions after my keynote on "Reality Design" and an inspiring program. I enjoyed the morning runs before the conference in Cagliari (sunrise was at 6:30 - well aligned with a conference start at 9). LMU Media Informatics Group uni.ubicomp.net/talks/RealityD…

German PreCHI 2025 is starting! Looking forward to get a preview of lots of papers others will see in Yokahama … #CHI2025

Next year‘s PreCHI will be in Munich at LMU. #PreCHI2026

Kick-off at BIDT (bidt.digital) for a new set of projects on Human-ai co-creation. In our project we look into democratization of software development by co-creation of spezifications as intermediate representations for software. Sven Mayer LMU Media Informatics Group

CfP for the upcoming workshop: *The Role of Design in the Future of Human-AI Interaction* at Aarhus 2025. uni.ubicomp.net/Aarhus2025/ As part of aarhus2025.org Rolling deadline: submit now! We plan to respond within one week! Janin Koch, Wendy Mackay, Albrecht Schmidt

So amazed to get the chance to do my dream research on Human-AI interaction supported by European Research Council (ERC) - check out ai-twin.eu - how can we create AI models that encode our very personal experiences and how to use them to amplify our cognitive abilities?

SpaceCHI 2025 is starting at the Astronaut training center in Cologne - another week another conference:) spacechi.media.mit.edu
