AI-based systems, and especially voice-based AI systems, are gaining popularity and set novel requirements for end users. Research has provided first approaches postulating and conceptualizing AI-related user competencies. However, voice-based technology utilizing spoken language for operation has been neglected so far. This study presents qualitative interviews of 12 experts in research, development, or design of voice-based AI and explores the skills and competencies which are needed to interact with VBAI in a self-determined and mindful manner. Analyses highlight that, contrary to existing assumptions and providers’ advertising promises, not only language skills but a wider...

Intelligent voice assistants (IVAs) such as Alexa or Siri are voice-based AI systems that support users in various tasks with simple voice commands, making everyday life easier. However, users tend to have only a superficial understanding of the technological functionality of IVAs, leading to misconceptions and usage risks. To foster a self-determined interaction with IVAs, developing specific AI-related competencies, such as a comprehensive functional understanding, is essential. Three online training modules were developed based on learning psychology and media didactics principles to deepen the functional understanding of IVAs and empower self-determined use. In total, 180 participants...

Intelligent voice assistants (IVAs) are widely used in households but can compromise privacy by inadvertently recording or encouraging personal disclosures through social cues. Against this backdrop, interventions that promote privacy literacy, sensitize users to privacy risks, and empower them to self-determine IVA interactions are becoming increasingly important. This work aims to develop and evaluate two online training modules that promote privacy literacy in the context of IVAs by providing knowledge about the institutional practices of IVA providers and clarifying users' privacy rights when using IVAs. Results show that the training modules have distinct strengths. For example,...

As Artificial Intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly pervasive in everyday life, AI literacy is widely recognized as a set of essential competencies for navigating AI-driven environments safely, responsibly, and effectively. There is a growing need to assess this construct, for example, to inform targeted educational interventions. Although several measurement tools already exist, many show limitations regarding subjective data collection methods, differentiation between target groups, validity, and the integration of recent developments, such as Generative AI literacy. To address these limitations, this study introduces the AI Competency Objective Scale (AICOS) - an instrument grounded in...
