Abstract

As Large Language Models (LLMs) revolutionize Conversational User Interfaces (CUIs) in health and wellbeing, these technologies offer unprecedented potential to enhance user wellbeing by improving physical health, psychological resilience, and social connectivity. However, the integration of such advanced AI into everyday CUI health applications brings substantial challenges, including privacy, user agency, and the psychological impacts of AI interactions. This workshop will provide a platform for collaborative dialogue to explore leveraging these advancements to improve health outcomes while addressing the ethical challenges and risks. Through presentations, breakout sessions, and collaborative discussions, participants will delve into themes such as designing multimodal CUI interventions, structuring conversational interventions for privacy and engagement, personalizing user experiences, and developing proactive and context-adaptive CUI strategies. These discussions aim to develop effective, user-centered CUI strategies that ensure the benefits of LLM-driven innovations are realized without compromising user wellbeing.
