We conducted a barcamp session on motivation - because it is essential to motivate our students to learn the basics without AI tools. Only thereby they can gather an understanding of the fundamentals. Having learnt the basics, we then need to teach how to make use of AI tools efficiently.

Two weeks ago, I had the pleasure of attending the TEACH 5 conference at Helmholtz Information & Data Science Academy in beautiful Berlin. We exchanged about educational projects, and discussed which role AI plays in teaching and how we need to adapt - both regarding teaching with and about AI.

Privacy improvements still proliferate only slowly. In a world where digital privacy increases in relevance, our work is important as it underlines which aspects users are especially afraid of and what needs to change from their perspective.

I am thankful that our paper "European Users' In-Depth Privacy Concerns with Smartphone Data Collection" received an honourable mention award - a great team effort with my coauthors @maximilianewindl.bsky.social , Tobias Knochbloch, and @svenmayer.bsky.social !

Once again, it was great to join @mobilehci.bsky.social ! The first time in Egypt was definitely a special and very interesting one.

By evaluating the placeholder text of a textfield, we derive the user's input intention. This allows to distinguish between private contents, public posts, or functional inputs such as search queries. Researchers who study typed language on smartphones can thereby obtain higher quality data.

To get the most out of our research data, we need to regard it in the context of the data-donating participant's situation and action. In our short paper "Contextualizing Smartphone-Typed Language with User Input Intention," we propose a method to improve our understanding of mobile typing behavior.

How can we redesign the interaction concepts in 𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗻𝗲𝘄𝘀 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀 to mitigate negative 𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀? I'm happy to attend #CHI2025 to discuss this during the conference. Whether you're at CHI or not - feel free to reach out if you are interested in having a chat! 🗯️

In the summer of 2024, I finally handed in my dissertation incorporating 5 years of research on privacy in human-computer interaction – let's be honest, nobody will ever read all of this. That's why I have now summarized 5 key takeaways in an article: drflo.de/uncategorize...

However, a discussion about industry experiences of our students showed that (web) developers are and will still be needed. They reported on an increased debugging demand in the code of colleagues who heavily rely on LLM-based tools, and difficulties with the integration in larger infrastructures.

LLM-based support tools, such as @cursor.com.web.brid.gy and Github Copilot, do a great job supporting web developers in their work. Development proceeds faster and feels more satisfying, according to research at our lab that was led by Thomas Weber and @svenmayer.bsky.social.

We had an interesting discussion today in the Online Multimedia lecture, that I give together with Florian Alt at @mimuc.bsky.social . Are we as web developers, and the course that we teach, becoming superfluous with the rise of LLM tools?
