This year, our team member Verena Traubinger represented VSR at the ACM Conference on Conversational User Interfaces (CUI ’26) in Bremen.

She presented papers for the workshops ADAPTIC – Adapting Dialog and Pragmatic Traits in Context and Workshop on Conversational Interfaces for Agentic Web browsing and took part in a workshop on Emerging Risks of Conversational AI. All workshops included discussions on creating better interactions with conversational interfaces and which opportunities they offer for the users. The full workshop materials and accepted papers are available on the respective workshop pages.

Additionally to a participation in the conference itself, she is Web Chair in the Organising Committee where she prepared, reviewed and published the necessary information on the website for participants and contributors.
