Item type:Publication, What Happens When CHI Reaches 30,000 Submissions in 2030? Preparing for the Tsunami of AI-Accelerated Papersthe OECD has remained flat at 2.7 percent since 2020. c Proportional expansion of research capacity is not driving growth in submissions; more papers are being produced from roughly the same pool of resources. I have served on program committees long enough to recognize the early symptoms of this strain. Recruiting qualified reviewers is harder each cycle; the pool of willing experts does not grow at anywhere near the rate submissions do; review quality has become uneven, not because reviewers lack good intentions, but because the match between expertise, experience, and assigned papers loosens as numbers climb. AAAI 2026 acknowledged this development, noting that some reviewers would assess papers "adjacent to their core research fields rather than papers that perfectly match their expertise." Reviewer fatigue is real, it is growing, and it corrodes the care that good reviewing demands [1]. Additionally, many researchers carelessly use AI tools. I stumbled over many hallucinated references when reviewing for a large SIGCHI conference, which also has seen a 50 percent increase in submissions. And then there is the feedback loop: AI-assisted papers are increasingly reviewed by AI-assisted reviewers. Research [2] suggests that between 6.5 and 16.9 percent of peer review text at some AI conferences may have been substantially generated or modified by LLMs. arXiv has responded by tightening its rules for computer science, now requiring prior peer review for review articles and position papers, explicitly citing the flood of content that generative AI makes "fast and easy to write."

Item type:Publication, The Impact of a Reward-and-Progression Loop on Engagement with a Mobile Breathing Training: Preliminary Findings from a 15-day Field Study(ACM, 2026-04-13); Engagement with digital health interventions (DHIs) often declines over time, with many users discontinuing use after initial adoption. Gamification has been proposed to address this challenge, yet evidence on its effectiveness remains mixed. This exploratory study examines whether a reward-and-progression loop (RPL), linking performance to daily-constrained collectible coins and unlockable visual features, is associated with differences in engagement in a mobile biofeedback breathing training (MBBT). Twenty participants were randomly assigned to a control or an RPL condition and used the application over 15 days. Engagement was operationalized using two metrics: the number of active days and median session duration per user. Participants in the RPL condition showed more active days than those in the control condition (median = 7 vs. 2). Session duration was comparable across conditions, though more variable in the RPL condition. These preliminary findings suggest that RPLs may support more frequent engagement in DHIs and warrant further investigation.Type:journal articleJournal:Extended Abstracts of the 2026 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Navigating beyond places: The significance of navigation tools in everyday media use(2025-08-01); This study examines navigation tools as key mediators of spatial perception, mobility, and digital infrastructures, contributing to scholarship on mediatization, geomedia, and surveillance studies. Navigation apps like Google Maps do not merely facilitate wayfinding; they actively shape spatial experiences, decision-making, and social interactions. Using a mixed-methods approach, we combined real-time activity tracking via the “MapRecorder” tool with qualitative interviews to analyze how users engage with Google Maps. Our findings reveal that navigation tools function as interfaces of spatial production, social connection, and data extraction, embedding themselves in everyday media repertoires. We identify four key usage patterns—search, place, directions, and map view manipulation—demonstrating that navigation is increasingly entangled with broader digital habits. In addition, the data suggested a paradoxical relationship between user convenience and concerns over dataveillance, contributing to debates on privacy resignation and the platformization of spatial control. By foregrounding these tensions, our study extends discussions on the deep mediatization of space, the role of geomedia in shaping mobility, and the sociotechnical power of digital navigation infrastructures.Type:journal articleJournal:New Media & Society - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Traffic jam by GPS: A systematic analysis of the negative social externalities of large-scale navigation technologies(Public Library of Science, 2024-08-06); ; ; Xiangjie KongThe increased usage of navigation technologies has caused conflicts in local traffic management, resulting in congested residential areas among other challenges for residents. This paper uses content analysis to investigate such negative social externalities within local communities and neighbourhoods. Through a corpus of 90 news articles about traffic incidents caused by navigation technologies, we identified negative traffic and safety-related externalities, including congestion, damage, pollution, and accidents. We also report on countermeasures by local communities and governments, including street closures, speed limit reduction, and turn bans. Based on our results, we discuss the implications for designing mobile navigation technologies that reduce negative social externalities.Type:journal articleJournal:PLOS ONEVolume:19Issue:8Scopus© Citations 6 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Dark Patterns: manipulative Designstrategien in digitalen Gesundheitsanwendungen(2024-02-08); ; Malaka, RainerAmong other things, digital health applications offer users support in better understanding their physical and mental health through digital data, thereby promoting positive health behavior. In addition to state-approved digital health applications (DiGA) and digital care applications (DiPA), there is a wide array of other commercial health applications available to users. Particularly in non-approved applications, developers often deploy manipulative design strategies (dark patterns), intentionally or unintentionally, to deceive users into making specific decisions. This article provides an overview of current and widespread dark patterns and assesses the risks posed by them in digital health applications. In the future, “light” should be shed on dark patterns by creating more transparency for users, providing regulators with a more accurate understanding of dark patterns, and paying more attention to the implementation of guidelines. Thus, users may gain autonomy using healthcare applications and their data can be better protected.Type:journal articleJournal:Bundesgesundheitsblatt (2024)Scopus© Citations 2 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
