Not sure if you missed this, but our paper "Making Indecent Persuasion Visible: How Evaluation Metrics Shape UX Designers’ Ethical Reasoning" with Rhomberg, and Nissenbaum was awarded the *best late breaking work* (1 out of 25 accepted). dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/... hauke.haus/assets/pdf/P...
from 30% rejection to 56% rejection in the persuasion metrics condition.

Do you feel like everyone is using AI these days, but no one is being transparent about how truthfully? Join us for our workshop on AI disclosure, where we’ll discuss how AI is used (un)ethically in CHIwork.

Does everyone need to do a PhD? No. Do we need PhDs for a prospering society? Absolutely. High-risk, high-effort, and low-monetary-reward breakthroughs require diligent workers. America’s long-term prosperity is more dependent on this expertise than most imagine.

7/ What's next? X has 60 days to fix the checkmark issue and 90 days for an action plan on ads/data or face penalty payments. In December Elon Musk already called to "abolish the EU". And this decision does not even include more recent concerns about Grok producing sexual images of minors.

4/ Shutting Out Researchers: The law (Art. 40) says researchers must have access to data to study systemic risks. The EC says X is obstructing this by killing free API access and charging "prohibitive" fees—blocking the public's ability to see how the platform really works.

3/ Dark Patterns in Ad Repository: Transparency isn't just about having a list; it has to be usable. The EC found X’s ad repository is "labyrinthine" and "unreliable," with artificial delays and missing info on who is actually paying for influence campaigns.

2/ "Blue Check" Deception: The EC argues that selling "verification" without actual identity checks is a deceptive design practice. By using a symbol traditionally linked to authenticity, X misleads users into trusting accounts that could be bots or scammers.

We had an open text field as a mandatory field for responses. Respondents were presented with text and image stimuli. Ai individuals clearly failed to respond to the images and instead provided long and hallucinated explanations based on the limited text stimuli available.
