At this year's SaxFDM Open Data Award, three publications with @scadsai.bsky.social involvement were awarded for exemplary approaches in the field of open research data. Congratulations to Prof. Miguel Mahecha, Dr. Patrick Ebel, Dr. Markus Wolfien, and Waldemar Hahn! 👉 scads.ai/saxfdm-open-...

When discussing how to identify LLM-generated or -tuned text in research papers, the most obvious indicator is that every abbreviation is introduced 7 to 12 times

AutomotiveUI 2025 Proceedings are out! The conference proceedings are now available for download: 👉 auto-ui.org/25/proceedings Final versions will be published soon in the ACM Digital Library! #AutoUI25 #HCI #AutomotiveResearch #HumanMachineInteraction

Evidence no. 4657916 that the review process is broken:

“Altman has said it’s better to talk about levels of progress toward this state of general intelligence rather than asking if something is AGI or not.” 2022: AGI in a year 2023: AGI in a year 2024: AGI in a year 2025: stop asking about AGI!

🏆Anton Gasse, Alexander Lingler(@ituaustria.bsky.social), Martin Lorenz, @oulasvirta.bsky.social(@aalto.fi‬), @philwintersberg.bsky.social(@ituaustria.bsky.social) & @patebel.bsky.social won the People’s Choice Award for Best Poster @chiwork.bsky.social 2025 in Amsterdam! 🔗https://shorturl.at/D5JDO

ScaDS.AI on Tour in Leipzig! 🌞🏐 This year, we explored Lake Kulkwitz—enjoying volleyball, great talks, and beautiful weather while strengthening team bonds. Looking forward to more lakes ahead! 🚣

Today I gave a talk at @tue.nl and presented my vision of how to use computational models of human behavior as interactive crash test dummies. I argue that only by using simulation we can develop technology that truly meets human needs. Thanks to @bazilinskyy.bsky.social for hosting me this week!

So here we are... I'm sorry for the colleagues affected. We can't let these twisted arguments proliferate any longer and finally get coordinated as a field.

Mis/disinformation research officially cancelled. Understanding the creation, content, distribution, and susceptibility is one of today’s key scientific and societal challenges. Researching this is not free speech infringement. Such a claim is intentionally misleading. www.nsf.gov/updates-on-p...

Apply! (For our RL-based project on simulated users and computational rationality)

Happy to be Open Data Chair once again! Submit your paper, make your artifacts available and go for the Open Science Prize🏆 More info here: www.auto-ui.org/25/authors/o... #autoui2025

📢 Attention, authors! 📢 All submission dates for AutoUI25 are now public! 🗓️✨ Make sure to submit your work on time and be part of an inspiring exchange of ideas. 💡 Got questions? Feel free to reach out—we’re happy to help! 🔗 Visit our website: www.auto-ui.org/25/ #callforpaper #AutoUI2025

I'm looking at this panel for the third time now and am still trying to figure out who received which award. ⬇️⬆️

📣9th Summer School on Computational Interaction in June in Paris🇫🇷. Speakers include Lydia Chilton, John Williamson, Laure Soulier, Jean Claude Dreher and myself. Application deadline March 14th. cixschool2025.isir.upmc.fr

On my way back from the Human Modeling and Cooperative Agents Retreat in snowy Austria, bringing back a bag full of ideas and promising collaborations. Many thanks to @philwintersberg.bsky.social for organizing and to @oulasvirta.bsky.social and all participants for the engaging discussions.

Together! #b0202

Our response to the far-right attacks on our democracy, rights, planet and liberties: Hope and resistance. As they plan to drown us in darkness, 100k people on the streets of Berlin turned on the lights yesterday.

Just deleted my Twitter account. Felt good.

More than 100.000 people in Germany 🇩🇪 in the streets today, like here in Berlin, protesting the rise of far right politics, like the AfD nazi party promoted by Elon Musk.

Want to learn about human modeling or computational design? We have several summer internship positions open for Bachelor and Master's students at Aalto University. Application deadline Jan 31. www.aalto.fi/en/open-posi...

Exactly what I needed for next week‘s lecture on scientific writing!

Yesterday I had a nice little chat with @helliwood.bsky.social about our work at ScaDS.AI. The interview is part of a series called "Mobile Digital Classroom" that aims to promote digital education in schools across Saxony and get kids interested in science. Already excited to the final product!
