Psychological risks of AI use have been under-represented in existing taxonomies. They often fail to capture the “lived experience” of users. So, how can we capture such risks and provide AI design recommendations? 🤔 We explore this in our paper, accepted at #FAccT 2025! 👇🧵 arxiv.org/pdf/2412.07951
Paper Title ("From Lived Experience to Insight: Unpacking the Psychological Risks of Using AI Conversational Agents") with the authors (Mohit Chandra, Suchismita Naik, Denae Ford, Ebele Okoli, Munmun De Choudhury, Mahsa Ershadi, Gonzalo Ramos, Javier Hernandez, Ananya Bhattacharjee, Shahed Warreth, Jina Suh)

First there was electricity, then the internet, now #LLMs. OK, we’re skipping a lot of history, but large-language models (LLMs) are a pretty big deal. Meet the next wave of inventors from @GeorgiaTech who are part of this new computing revolution. Highlighted are Munmun De Choudhury (@munmun10) and Mohit Chandra (@mohit__30), working on cracking an important issue in mental health—can #AI chatbots accurately identify patients’ adverse reactions to psychiatric medication, and, if so, also provide timely effective advise to minimize harm? Learn the answers at the link and meet all of Tech’s talent at @naacl this week. The Land of #LLMs awaits 🗺️🔍: sites.gatech.edu/research/na… #GTComputing #TogetherWeCompute #ChangeTheGame

We draw from a corpus of DoD grant solicitations from 2007 to 2023, focusing on those addressed to researchers in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). Considering the implications of DoD funding for academic research, the paper proceeds through three analytic sections. In the first, we offer a critical examination of the distinction between basic and applied research, showing how funding calls framed as basic research nonetheless enlist researchers in a war fighting agenda.

Rachel’s work is so important! Check out her recent paper published at #CSCW2024
Georgia Tech Computing@gtcomputing
20 Nov 2024
Georgia Tech students with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) are designing technologies tailored to them while teaching faculty and researchers about their needs in the process. Rachel Lowy, a Ph.D. student in @ICatGT, piloted a new human-computer interaction design course for IDD students in Georgia Tech’s EXCEL program. EXCEL is an Inclusive Postsecondary Education (IPSE) program that offers a four-year track for IDD students to earn two separate certificates. Read more: cc.gatech.edu/news/excel-stu…
