<div>Hello all,<br><br>I'm a postdoctoral fellow at Carnegie Mellon University's Human-Computer Interaction Institute, and I'm recruiting for an interview study on how adults with disabilities use conversational AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini in everyday life: what people choose to tell these systems about themselves, and what they expect the system to do with that information.<br><br>You may be eligible if you:<br><ul><li>Are 18 or older and live in the United States</li><li>Identify as disabled or as having a chronic illness or chronic health condition</li><li>Either use an AI assistant at least twice a week, or <span aria-invalid="grammar" class="Lm ng">used</span> one that often in the past and have since stopped or cut back. People who stepped away from these tools are just as important to this study as people who use them daily.</li></ul>Participation is one Zoom interview, 60 to 90 minutes, scheduled at a time that works for you. Participants are compensated for their time. Accommodations are arranged at no cost, including live captions or CART, scheduled breaks, extra time or splitting the interview across two sessions, materials that work with your screen reader, and the option to answer in writing or in the Zoom chat.<br><br>To check your eligibility, the short screening form is here (about 3 to 5 minutes):<br><a href="https://cmu.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3ygSf4Rt94GRiSi"><span id="mt-tracked-link_2_1787064588542" style="color:red"></span>https://cmu.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3ygSf4Rt94GRiSi</a></div><div><br></div><div>If you have any questions, <span aria-invalid="grammar" class="Lm ng">write me at</span> <a href="mailto:ataheri@cmu.edu">ataheri@cmu.edu</a>.
