Convergence of HCI & AI

Abstract

I believe the future of HCI is AI, where AI tools on sensor data from people are essential to improve usefulness and behaviour of interfaces. Similarly, I believe the future of AI is HCI, where AI no longer just provides a classification or prediction and decides, rather the person is part of AI's inputs / outputs, uses HCI techniques to present info. This convergence I call responsive AI - and I describe some work my students and I have done in this area: sensor data from people and predicting subtle internal states such as stress, doubt, depression and so on.
