Designing and deploying social computing systems inside and outside the lab

Abstract:
Social computing platforms, from Facebook to Uber, have permeated most aspects of our lives. In recent years, however, these platforms have contributed to critical societal issues ranging from isolation and misinformation, for example, in Instagram and Twitter, to exploitation facilitated by gig work platforms, for example, Grubhub or Uber. These challenges inspired my teams–in industry and academia–to create novel social computing systems.

In this talk, I will show several systems designed to help people connect and collaborate. First, I will present Project IRL and Capybara, a suite of augmented reality (AR) social applications designed to foster creative expression and in-person play. Second, I will show Significant Otter, a wearable application that uses biosignals to facilitate new forms of interpersonal communication. Lastly, I will describe OpenDelivery, our team’s ongoing efforts to create alternative, decentralized, community-owned platforms for gig work and beyond. I will close by articulating the challenges and opportunities ahead for the field of human-computer interaction.

About the speaker:
Andrés Monroy-Hernández leads the Princeton HCI Lab, where he focuses on human-computer interaction and social computing. He is also an associated faculty at Princeton's Center for Information Technology and Policy, the Keller Center for Innovation, the Program in Cognitive Science, and the Program in Latin American Studies. He also serves on the board of the non-profit Crisis Text Line. Before Princeton, he spent a decade in industry research labs, first in the leadership team of Microsoft Research's FUSE Labs and then at Snap Research, where he founded and managed the HCI Research team.
He has created technologies that help millions of people connect and collaborate in new ways, these include MIT's Scratch, an online community for children to learn programming; Microsoft's Meeting Scheduler, a scheduling agent that uses hybrid AI; Significant Otter, a smartwatch app for couples to connect using biosignals; and Snapchat's Project IRL, a suite of playful and co-located augmented reality experiences.
His research has received best paper awards at CHI, CSCW, HCOMP, and ICWSM, and has been featured in The New York Times, CNN, Wired, BBC, and The Economist. Andrés was named one of the 35 Innovators under 35 by the MIT Technology Review magazine in Latin America and one of the most influential Latinos in Tech by CNET. Andrés was the technical program co-chair for CSCW 2018 and Collective Intelligence 2019. He was an editor for CSCW from 2019 to 2022 and is currently a member of the CSCW steering committee.
