Original cover of Human-Centered Reading and Writing — AI writes better, but is your own knowledge growing?

What this project covers

  • A reading process of checking sources and writing in one's own words
  • Records of judgment that retain evidence, conditions, exceptions, and reasons for accepting or deferring
  • Ways to reuse reviewed writing in documents, presentations, and workflows

Preview of the A2 poster separately combining all four speakers on one sheet

Recalibrating Research Workflows in the AI Era

A poster production case that uses AI to summarize and re-edit four speakers' public presentations after the event. Two rotating mobile posters accompany a separately edited single-sheet A2 poster. This was not the official poster distributed for the event.
