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. 1/7

Exciting news 🪩 I'll present our upcoming paper Proxona: Supporting Creators' Sensemaking and Ideation with LLM-Powered Audience Personas at #CHI2025 in Yokohama! 🇯🇵 Can we simulate virtual yet plausible and meaningful audience personas for content creators?

Malleable Overview-Detail Interfaces at #CHI2025 How do we design malleable interfaces in the age of GenAI? How can we pull information instead of navigating to find it? How can we create our own abstractions of information? Check out our preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2503.07782

When learning new skills, people often watch *multiple* how-to videos to understand different approaches and details. In our #IUI2025 paper, we introduce VideoMix — a system that uses vision-language models to aggregate videos into one organized, easy-to-digest experience.

🌸New #CHI2025 paper alert!! 🤖👩‍🏫 How can teachers ensure that AI tutors work for every student? Our team envisions a future where teachers build chatbots (e.g., AI tutors) tailored to their curriculum and students. 📄 Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2410.04078

I've been quiet for a while on the social media front -- it's been a very busy two years with an international move and setting up a new lab at KAIST, but I wanted to take a moment to highlight some of my students' fantastic new work in the domain of online safety.

I'll be presenting "Understanding the LLM-ification of CHI" **Wed, 30 Apr, 2:10 PM - 3:40 PM** at 📍G401📍 Come to the #CHI2025 paper session "Future of HCI and Research Practices" for all the wonderful papers! Let's connect and chat in Japan!! 😀

I'm in Yokohama for #CHI2025 to present my work #Proxona! 😊 I'll be presenting at 9:12 AM in Room G314+G315. If you're interested in user simulation & prototyping, data-driven personas, conversational interactions, or supporting sensemaking and ideation, please come!

Are you interested in expanding your design ideas with generative AI? 🎨🚀 Come check out our LBW poster on Expandora at #CHI2025 on Wed. We explored how structured input and a mindmap-style interface can enable broader exploration. Love to chat about #GenAI #Creativity #Design

I am presenting IdeaSynth in the last paper session at #CHI2025 right now! Feel free to come by G314-315 to learn about how we utilize LLM to provide literature-grounded assistance for research idea development! The talk is happening at around 10:12 AM.

🌸 Thanks everyone for coming! 🌸#CHI2025 #DynamicAbstractions

안녕하세요, KIXLAB 에서 만든 📢 공약쏙쏙 시스템📢을 소개합니다! (promisescope.com) 🤔공약쏙쏙? #대선2025 공약을 바탕으로 공약이 가져올 수 있는 사회적 영향, 그리고 '나'에게 어떤 변화가 생길 수 있을지 LLM (GPT-4o) 을 활용해 자동으로 보여주는 시스템입니다. (1/3)

New paper at #UIST25! 🧠 Wearable AI assistants can support our daily tasks, but poorly timed interventions often hurt more than help. 🕶️ ProMemAssist is a wearable AI assistant that delivers proactive task support—at the right time—by modeling your working memory in real time.

You ask ChatGPT to write a message for: 💼 Credit-stealing colleague → “Building on *my* idea…” 🏠 Messy roommate → “babe wake up new mold just dropped” Same you. Same task. Different context. Can LLMs learn this? 🤔 We built CUPID 🏹 to find out. 🔗 cupid.kixlab.org

🎓I officially defended my PhD! Huge thanks to my amazing advisor Juho Kim and committee Eytan Adar Alice Oh Sherry Tongshuang Wu Minjoon Seo. This fall, I'm excited to join Computer Science and Engineering at Michigan as a postdoc with Vera Liao to continue my research in human-centered AI and cognitive alignment!💙

Are you heading to Busan? 🏄‍♀️🌴🇰🇷 I'll present our paper 🪷BloomIntent: Automating Search Evaluation with LLM-Generated Fine-Grained User Intents at #UIST2025! 📍Oct 1 · 11:12–11:24 AM (Miami Room)

Are you interested in capturing professionals' tacit knowledge—like implicit decisions—and reusing it in generative agents 🤖 to better support creative work 👨🏻‍🎨? 👉 I will present my thesis work at UIST25 Doctoral Symposium (Poster: Tue evening). See you in Busan! 🇰🇷 #UIST2025

I am presenting ProMemAssist at #UIST2025! The demo is funny -- check out how my AI assistant on smart glasses helps me pack 🎒👓 📍Sept 30 Tue | 12:12 PM | Grand Ballroom
