Elena L. Glassman is a researcher at Harvard University focusing on human-computer interaction and human-AI interaction. Her work explores the design and evaluation of systems that enhance user experience with artificial intelligence, particularly in the context of code generation, explainable AI, and interactive program synthesis. She investigates how users interact with AI tools, aiming to improve usability and effectiveness through visualizations, feedback mechanisms, and collaborative frameworks. Her research also addresses challenges in evaluating AI systems, such as the limitations of proxy tasks and subjective measures. By combining human-centered design with computational methods, she develops tools that support sensemaking, creativity, and learning in AI-driven environments.
