38. What can academic research tell us about the current and future state of Generative AI? - Conversations at CHI 2023 in Hamburg (Part 1)

What is generative Artificial Intelligence (AI)?

What aspects of generative AI are academics conducting cutting edge research currently investigating?

How can UX researchers and designers apply lessons from this research in their own work?

And should we learn to love or fear AI?

In the first of two episodes from the CHI2023 Human Computer Interaction conference in Hamburg, I chat in-person with five attendees about the event, their own research, and what the future may hold for generative AI. 

There isn’t possibly time to cover the vast range great talks and sessions at CHI2023, but I hope this will give you a flavour of what was on offer and what those who attended took away from the event.

Many thanks to my guests:
