Dear colleagues,
We are excited to announce that the *submission deadline* for our Mensch
und Computer (MuC) 2025 workshop, “GenAI and Well-Being: Designing for
Agency and Beyond,” *has been extended.* *You now have until June 27,
2025, to submit your position paper or statement of interest.*
Our workshop will explore how generative AI can support meaningful,
healthy lives and strengthen human agency in everyday contexts.
🎤 We are delighted to feature a keynote by Jasmin Niess, who will
discuss how AI-driven tools can foster empowerment and challenge
conventional ideas about autonomy, control, and decision-making.
Expect a hands-on and interactive format, bringing together voices from
HCI, design, ethics, psychology, and related disciplines. We aim to map
out opportunities, surface risks, and collaboratively shape future
research directions.
