Ever have a frustrating or even bizarre conversation online? Helpdesk, chatbot, scammer - any of these can make you feel uncomfortable. Not knowing whether something is human or not can be uncanny. This is interaction, or discourse, that structures power and control. We create a new concept, Uncanny Discourse, that frames computer and human interaction, informed by the reality-bending nature of AI. Learn how to face the challenging space of designing interactive systems in the age of AI by grappling with Uncanny Discourse. Mitigate it or lean in and run with it. But know that it is out there, weird and waiting.
