CALL FOR PAPERS

The 2nd International Symposium on Artificial Intelligence throughout the Human-Centered Design Process (AI-HCD 2027) provides a unique platform for researchers, practitioners, and innovators from Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), User Experience (UX), Human-Centered Design (HCD), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to exchange ideas and advance the integration of AI into human-centered design practices.

We invite original contributions that explore how AI can support, augment, or transform design practices across all phases of the HCD lifecycle—from requirements analysis and ideation to prototyping, evaluation, and deployment.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

AI-assisted creativity and ideation

Automated prototyping and design generation

AI-supported user research and UX evaluation

Ethical, social, and methodological implications of AI in design

Trust, transparency, and user perception of AI-driven systems

Accepted papers will be peer-reviewed and published in the German Informatics Society (GI) Library with a unique Digital Object Identifier (DOI), ensuring academic visibility and citation.

Key Questions:

Where in the Human-Centered Design process is AI most impactful?

How can AI enhance creativity without diminishing human agency?

What are the limitations and risks of AI-supported design?

How does AI influence usability and UX perceptions?

What ethical frameworks are needed for AI in interactive systems?



SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Authors are invited to submit papers describing original, previously unpublished work, not currently under review by another conference, workshop, symposium, or journal. AI-HCD implements a double-blind review process. Submitted prototypes and demos are exempted from the requirement of anonymization. We also accept work-in-Progress or demo papers.

For the submission guidelines refer to the full CfP: https://ai-hcd.github.io/2027



Best Paper Award: The best paper will be honored with a Best Paper Award at the end of the symposium.
