Mapping the Present (20 min)
In groups, participants will reflect on how generative AI is currently being democratized in their domain and the role of HCI in supporting this process. They will identify different perspectives on democratizing AI within their landscape of work.Mapping the Future (40 min)
Building on the previous activity, groups will explore how the democratization of generative AI may evolve. They will consider which aspects may continue to grow, which may diminish, and which require discipline or transformation (inspired by the Manoa School method).Summarizing (30 min)
Groups will share their perspectives across domains to identify connections and discuss how HCI can help foster the responsible democratization of AI.
