Activities
During the workshop, we conducted a series of design activities. First, we used a speculative version of a method called Thing Interview (Chang et al. 2017) where participants embodied conversational agents. This activity was also inspired by the podcast Everything is Alive. Then we discussed emergent themes, and using those, we interviewed conversational agents directly. The outcome was a questionnaire for conversational agents, to provoke conversations about ethical issues. The final questionnaire (for Alexa, Google Home, and Siri) and the emergent ethical themes are presented here.
