"It was 80% me, 20% AI": Seeking Authenticity in Co-Writing with Large-Language Models
Angel Hsing-Chi Hwang, Q. Vera Liao, Su Lin Blodgett, Alexandra Olteanu, Adam Trischler
Hi there! I am a human-AI interaction (HAII) researcher and an Assistant Professor at USC Annenberg and a core faculty member at USC Center for AI in Society. My research explores the impact of AI on individuals' work practices and their broader societal implications.
Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Associate at the Department of Information Science at Cornell University. I also received my PhD in Communication at Cornell with a Concentration in Human-Computer Interaction. Throughout my PhD journey, I was fortunate to work at Microsoft Research, Google Research, Sony AI, Adobe, Accenture Labs, and Cornell Center for Social Sciences through various internships, fellowships, and PhD scholar programs.
I am always on the lookout for thought-provoking collaborators to work with. If you find anything interesting on this page, let's get in touch :)

10/2024 Two papers accepted at CSCW 2025! One on the authenticity of AI-assisted writing (work done with my wonderful mentors, Vera Liao, Su Lin Blodgett, Alexandra Olteanu, and Adam Trischler at Microsoft Research) and one on applying generative AI tools to support participatory design of public spaces (kudos to my Cornell collaborators: Jose Guridi, Duarte Santo, Maria Goula, Cristobal Cheyre, Lee Humphreys, and Marco Rangel). See you next year in Norway 🇳🇴
10/2024 Gave a talk at USC MASTS to share some of my thought on regulatory sandbox and AI governance. Thanks the MASTS group for a thought-provoking conversation!
