Happening now in Allegheny 2!

Thrilled to officially announce that I will join the Department of Computer Science at GMU George Mason University as an Assistant Professor in 2025! After 4 incredible years in Hong Kong, I'm looking forward to this new chapter and the opportunities it brings.

📢Hire Karthik! One of the strongest HRI minds I've seen, plus commitment and good vibe.

📢I'm recruiting PhD students for Fall 2025 as I begin my journey as an assistant professor at NJIT in Jan 2025. Our lab aims to explore the future of intelligent creation tools for AR/VR. 💫 Details about my advising philosophy and research vision: raynez.art/join-us/

🔬Research ideation is hard: After the spark of a brilliant initial idea, much work is still needed to further develop it into a well-thoughtout project by iteratively expanding and refining the initial idea and grounding it to relevant literature. How can we better support this?

#CHI2025 Coding Partner or Intruder? We designed, tested Codellaborator, a proactive AI assistant that initiates coding help. Compared to Copilot, we found: - Faster coding, but workflow disruptions - AI presence & local context eased confusion - Felt more like collaborating

Feel free to check out our latest work on using AR-based analogy to explain counterintuitive quantum computing concepts! It will be presented at CHI 25 Late-Breaking Work.

Congrats to all! Karthik Mahadevan Blaine Lewis Bilge Tony Tovi Grossman An image can sometimes be worth a thousand words for robot instruction.

i’m at #chi2025 and i’ll be on the industry job market later this year! i work in human-ai interaction. my prev projects focused on design tools. i love design. i love user interfaces. i trained myself to become an ai engineer to push our tools further. i believe ai is on

I am excited to join the University of Utah as an Assistant Professor this Fall. I will be hiring 2 Ph.D. students starting in Spring/Fall 2026. I will continue to work on UI optimization/generation and eye tracking-related research. I’d love suggestions for a lab name! University of Utah

Excited to share that I'll be joining the CS department at University of Alberta as an Assistant Professor in January 2026 where I will be affiliated with Amii. I'll be recruiting 2-3 PhD/MSc students and establishing a research lab on AI in Education and Human–AI Interaction.

Fresh off the EuroVis press! Blog post on work that Naimul Hoque and I did to scaffold dashboard guidance authoring by *demonstration*. Especially proud moment was having it featured at the Visionaries Summit at TC25. Brilliant work, Naimul Hoque!
