SUMMARY:On Hitting the Button
DESCRIPTION:BritCHI 2026 · alt.britchi: Designing Otherwise: Power\, Value
 s and Consequences\nGruben\na one-page piece of prose expresses the defeat
 ed and disembodied experience of humans using GenAI casually while knowing
  or suspecting some of the resulting harms. It is written with a cadence t
 o invoke a sense of direct causation from single user action to single out
 come\, but this is partly for effect to illustrate participating in a netw
 ork of harms. In a closing line\, the author suggests to the reader that e
 ven in such hopelessness\, we still have choices. The abstract and keyword
 s are placed afterward to protect the “show\, don’t tell” rule of fi
 ction writing. This piece was submitted to BritChi’s alt.britchi track\,
  a creative call on the topic of what HCI (human-computer interaction) can
 ’t do.
