In this article, we explore the intersection of creativity, education, and technology, with a focus on the impact of Generative AI (GenAI). We delve into the transformative potential of GenAI in redefining educational and creative processes and challenging our existing notions of learning and creativity. Through a conversation with renowned…

Cognitive load occurs when the demands of a task surpass the available processing capacity, straining mental resources and potentially impairing performance efficiency, such as increasing the number of errors in a task. Owing to its ubiquity in real-world scenarios, the existence of offloading strategies to reduce cognitive load is not new to…

Digital systems are pervasive in modern societies -- augmenting personal and commercial driving, detecting cancer, and exploiting transitory events in financial markets. Attacks on these systems are growing in number, sophistication, and impact. Current cyber defenses are proving inadequate against some of these attacks. Cyber defense tools that…

Before interacting with real users, developers must be proficient in human--computer interaction (HCI) so as not to exhaust user patience and availability. For that, substantial training and practice are required, but it is costly to create a variety of high-quality HCI training materials. In this context, chat generative pretrained transformer…

This study explores the interaction between artificial intelligence (AI) and human behavior in economic contexts, focusing on using generative AI, such as ChatGPT, to examine trust and reciprocity. Through an experiment conducted at LUMSA in Palermo, 61 economics students participated in three economic games: the Ultimatum Game, the Trust Game,…

An educational customer relationship management (CRM) Chatbot is a learner support service automation tool that enhances the human computer interaction and user experience in higher education institutions through effective online conversation and information exchange. The machine with embedded knowledge is trained to identify the sentences and…

Social robot in service is radically changing the ways of performing tasks and it becomes a distinct and valuable nascent. To achieve persist autonomy, robotic systems implement a closed-loop consisting of at least planning, reasoning and acting phases. From the continual loop perspective, this paper presents the ROSPlan framework, as a task…

The overarching theme of this research project is to build a machine-accessible and mathematically precise abstraction of human body movement through experiments in programming an articulated puppet that imitates the human body structure and mobility within a "Real-Time Interactive Computer Animation" (RTICA). Human movement has been the…

Advances in the integration of smart technology with interdisciplinary methods has created a new genre, approachable modeling and smart methods -- AM-Smart for short. AM-Smart platforms address a major challenge for applied and public sector analysts, educators and those trained in traditional methods: accessing the latest advances in…

This article highlights teaching and learning in reconstructive research supported by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine interpretation in particular. The focus is whether the traditional teaching of methodological competence through research workshops can be supplemented with artificial intelligence (natural language processing, NLP)…

A chatbot is artificial intelligence software that converses with a user in natural language. It can be instrumental in mitigating teaching workloads by coaching or answering student inquiries. To understand student-chatbot interactions, this study is engineered to optimize student learning experience and instructional design. In this study, we…

Despite the growing popularity of ChatGPT and chatbot-assisted writing, research on the use of ChatGPT in second language (L2) writing classrooms remains insufficient. Using reflection papers and focus group interviews, the qualitative study examined doctoral students' views on the impact of using ChatGPT on L2 writing and their expected…

There is a significant body of research in "naturalistic designs" of augmented reality (AR), concerning different fields (medicine, education, arts etc). Although naturalistic approaches have the potential to enable new forms of experiencing and experimenting with AR technologies, it remains unclear how they can impact participants'…

The emergence of ChatGPT, an AI system designed for conversation by OpenAI, has prompted conversations about its transformative possibilities in multiple fields, primarily in education. This study conducts an in-depth investigation into the emotional and cognitive factors contributing to the popularity of ChatGPT and its influence on the shift…

The realm of online international Chinese language teaching is undergoing significant transformations propelled by the internet and the pandemic. The digital teaching is the way forward for online international Chinese language teaching. There are significant differences between online international Chinese language teaching and traditional…
