The Influence of Assumptions on AI Conversations

A study conducted by researchers from MIT and Arizona State University found that users' prior beliefs about an AI agent significantly influence their interactions and perception of its trustworthiness, empathy, and effectiveness. Priming users with different descriptions of the AI agent influenced their perception and communication with it, even though they were speaking to the same chatbot. Users who were told the AI agent was caring believed it was, and gave it higher performance ratings, while those who believed it was manipulative rated it lower. The study highlights the importance of how AI is presented to society and raises concerns about the potential for deception.

"Revolutionary OLED Touchscreen with Liquid-Filled Tactile Buttons"

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University's Future Interfaces Group have developed a display that can create protrusions on demand by inflating and deflating screen sections with fluid. The "Flat Panel Haptics" technology can be stacked under an OLED panel to create pop-up buttons, adding a new tactile dimension to activities like typing and gaming. The Embedded Electroosmotic Pumps (EEOPs) are arrays of fluid pumps on a thin actuation layer built into a touchscreen device, and filling each area takes about one second. The researchers see this as a tactile equivalent to the way pixels work on displays, and it could open new doors for user interaction and accessibility features.
