<p class="m_2253419434272169029MsoPlainText"><span style="font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif" lang="EN-US">The
<b>aim of the workshop</b> is to address the role that human autonomy presently receives in HCI research and how “autonomous technologies” might challenge, rather than facilitate human autonomy. We acknowledge a need for new ways of understanding HCI and interaction
design as digital technologies develop. In this workshop, participants are invited to a discussion where the autonomous human-being—who can act autonomously with autonomous technologies—is emphasized, beyond simple human control to a more flexible, sophisticated,
subtle, and sustainable autonomy. <u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="m_2253419434272169029MsoPlainText"><span style="font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif" lang="EN-US">With our main interest being ‘autonomous technologies’ and how they might make the interaction imperceptible, challenging rather than facilitating human autonomy as a background,
this workshop focuses on the role of human autonomy and the right of the individual to govern their own lives. We want to explore interaction goals, relevant theories, methods, relations between the human and the computer, and relevant values and questions
for these technologies, potentially defining a shift in HCI. We are particularly interested in discussing the following themes but are also open for other takes on our main questions:<u></u><u></u></span></p>

(the mechanisms behind the technology is hidden) such as; smart environments and homes, ML algorithms and predictive technologies, robot “decisions”. How do people understand autonomous technology when they cannot sense or make sense of its operations? How
can we design for human autonomy when the human does not know that s/he interacts or what the autonomous technology does? How can humans relate to autonomous and/or imperceptible ‘things’ – or how do we describe the human-thing and subject-object relations?

seen that with the introduction of a robot in a domestic setting, humans need to carry out facilitation or articulation work. How do we describe how we relate to technology that performs tasks for us and with us? How do people handle having autonomous or automatic
things as “colleagues” or “partners” in work where work tasks are distributed or shared between humans and technology? What is a good mix or fit between machine and human decision-making?<u></u><u></u></span></p>

perspectives on human autonomy in today’s society and how technology can strengthen human autonomy. How do we describe and critically evaluate the different ways that technology represents, protects and supports or weakens human autonomy? Within this theme,
we include questions about how we can design these interactions, i.e., how to design for capabilities, prolonged mastery, or situated abilities, or how to design for perception and meaning-making when imperceptible interaction is the basis, how to design for
interaction with moving things like robots? <u></u><u></u></span></p>
