About this opportunity

AI assistans are increasingly part of how we review requirments, design, code and tests. But vetting and interacting with AI is tiring - the effort of prompting, checking and correcting can outweigh the benefits the AI provides.

At Ericsson, we want developer-AI collaboration that is genuinely, lower-friction across review activities, so engineers spend their attention where it matters rather than fighting the interaction itself. This thesis explores what causes "AI-fatigue" and how to design interactions that reduce it.

What you will do

This Master Thesis investigates lower-friction human-AI interaction across lifecycle review activities. The goal is to understand, measure and reduce the fatigue that comes from vetting and interacting with AI when reviewing requirements, designs, code and tests.

You will have the freedom to define areas of exploration within the project, These could include but are not limited to:

Characterizing and measuring AI fatigue - what is is, when it occurs and how to quantify it.

Finding friction points across lifecycle reviews

Prototyping lighter interaction techniques such as summaries, progressive disclosure and trust calibration.

Running a user study compairing the new design against a baseline

Producing a fatigue model, interaction guidelines and a working prototype

The skills you bring

Knowledge in AI, Computer Science, Human-Computer Interaction or a related field

Interest in UX methods and running user studies

Experience in at least one programming language

Eagerness to learn and explore new concepts.
