What AI pretends to be?
Recent research shows that anthropomorphizing of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, such as virtual assistants or chatbots, affects users’ trust. This paper explores what an AI technology should look like at the interface to facilitate appropriate trust. It proposes an integrated framework based on related work, including Lee and See’s (2004) trust in automation model, Mollerup’s (2019) pretense design, as well as Clark and Fischer’s (202…

This paper explores the intersection of culture and design, examining the practice of design for the speculative future through the lens of cultural activities. Several domains of design, including product design and service design, are interpreted as cultural activities. Through mixed methods of research for, through, and about design, this paper proposes design for the speculative future as speculative cultural intermediary. Three design projec…

In the Western tradition, the former originates from Aristotelian poetics and rhetoric, while the latter is associated with science and technology. The two have started to overlap in the 20th century, especially with the advent of the computer—a machine simulating human mental activities. This article begins by revisiting …
