Seeking to Interview People Who Make Software!

By kaylea on July 8, 2026

Students in the CDSC are recruiting for two interview studies.

The AI Slop study seeks to interview people involved in open source software who have experience dealing with AI-authored contributions in open source. We hope to learn more about how communities are responding to this challenge. You can read more about the study and fill out our screening survey here!

The Software Handoffs study seeks to interview people about how responsibility for a given piece of code gets handed off from one person to the next. We are wondering how this task is handled in industry and how this might differ from what is taught in a computer science curriculum. You can read more about the study and fill out our screening survey here!
