Lecture:

Trust calibration in generative AI: Investigating daily human-AI interactions

As conversational generative AI agents become part of everyday life, a pressing question emerges: how do individuals calibrate their trust in systems that adapt to their behavior and play an increasingly central role in their online interactions? This lecture outlines an integrated framework for studying trust calibration in generative AI, covering what trust calibration means in practice, the challenges that emerge from daily human-AI interaction, and how computational social science methods can help us study this process.

Workshop:

Digital data donation: Studying social phenomena in partnership with citizens 

Access to digital trace data is both a central need and a growing challenge for computational social scientists — platform APIs are increasingly restricted, and alternatives are scarce. Data donation, a citizen science approach where individuals share their own digital data with researchers, offers a promising path forward. This workshop walks through the full data donation workflow using the open-source PORT tool, and includes a hands-on brainstorming session to help participants apply it to their own research.
