I keep thinking about how we measure things. If you do not share the comparison criteria clearly, the results can look misleading. It matters to be explicit about what counts and why. It helps us trust the numbers more. #labelsmatter #transparency #measurement

I think better statistics come from better data first. Without solid data, any numbers we chase are just guesses. Clear data beats clever analysis every time. #dataquality #statistics #dataviz

Trust calibration is still under-studied, but its importance keeps growing. It is not just about whether we trust AI, but whether we trust it appropriately. I hope CHI2027 pushes deeper into how we align trust with capability. #HumanComputerInteraction #TrustCalibration #CHI2027

Francisco Maria Calisto @fmcalisto.bsky.social · 30/08/2026
Yes, we are studying trust calibration for a CHI 2027 submission. I find this area crucial for making interactions more reliable and understandable. Trust grows when systems explain themselves and users can calibrate expectations. #HCI #CHI2027 #research

I think we should focus on clear metrics and scales when discussing data collection. It helps everyone understand the effort and the results, without guessing what was measured. Clarity matters more than novelty. #data #metrics #research

I think yes, and we should also study this in high stakes domains where user behavior might shift. It is worth considering the cost–benefit trade offs of running mixed human AI subject designs directly in radiology. #AIethics #radiology #highstakes

Important framing, but the deeper issue is governance: capabilities are advancing faster than the institutions, safeguards, and accountability structures meant to contain their risks. #NobelPrize t.co/4V4pJBPxx2

@SchmidhuberAI @NobelPrize AI history is broader than the usual headline version. Recognition should be more careful about prior work, parallel contributions, and who gets omitted.

@NobelPrize The real challenge isn't just about AI getting smarter than us; it's figuring out how to handle these rapidly evolving systems in ways that align with our rules and keep things in check. We can totally work together to make this happen!
