Digital Agents for Automated Facilitation
Both research and practice demonstrate that many teams struggle with coordination, communication, and decision-making, often leading to ineffective meetings and suboptimal outcomes. Overcoming these challenges typically requires facilitation expertise to help groups structure their interactions and achieve predictable results. However, facilitation expertise is scarce, expensive, and difficult to scale. This thesis project aims to address this problem using digital agents. You will explore, design, implement, and evaluate an AI system capable of guiding a group through a structured brainstorming session.read more
Marketing Decisions Using Social Media and GenAI
Together with the company Respondelligent and Bern University of Applied Sciences (Prof. Thiemo Wambsganss), we are investigating how we can use social media data to support personalized marketing decisions for hotels and restaurants. You will examine the needs of hotels and restaurants and determine whether the AI-based tools developed by Bern University of Applied Sciences meet user requirements. Furthermore, you will work with Respondelligent to develop a service concept for the implementation of these tools. read more
Real or Generated? Individual, Collective, and Expert Intelligence in Detection of AI-generated Media
This thesis investigates how individuals, online communities, and experts detect AI-manipulated images and videos. Using Reddit discourse analysis and a quantitative experiment, it compares detection accuracy and visual cues across these groups, with a focus on how collective intelligence shapes outcomes. Findings will inform the design of media verification tools. read more
How AI-Assisted Software Development Reshapes Serial Digital Entrepreneurship
Vibe coding tools (AI platforms like Claude, Cursor, Replit etc) have made it possible to build and launch a digital product in a weekend with no coding experience. This is changing who becomes an entrepreneur and how they think about experimentation: when starting costs almost nothing, the logic of what's worth trying, when to quit, and when to start again changes. This thesis will investigate how serial digital entrepreneurs = people who launch multiple digital products one after another, experience this new reality but also leverage it (and maybe some become serial digital entrepreneurs thanks to AI). You will conduct and analyze 20-25 qualitative interviews with founders who actively build with AI tools, recruited through communities like Indie Hackers and Product Hunt. The study will follow a qualitative approach and is grounded in effectuation theory. read more
