ABSTRACT

Commercialised voice user interface devices for the home, like Amazon Echo, Google Home, and Apple HomePod, with integrated digital personal assistants have rapidly grown in popularity. These devices embody intelligent software agents that support users in their everyday life through easy and intuitive conversational interactions. While their use in everyday activities is largely unexplored, the proliferation in home use presents a valuable opportunity to add to understanding around the use of in-home digital personal assistants. In this paper, we investigate their home use in a broad context to learn more about people’s experiences, attitudes, interactions and expectations with these devices contributing new insights to current knowledge around this use. Applying the digital ethnography method, we collected 3542 reviews and comments about Amazon Echo, Google Home, and Apple HomePod on Amazon, eBay, and Reddit. Six main themes and 29 categories were derived through filtering, thematic analysis and affinity diagramming. These findings constitute a conceptual framework characterising the current landscape of home use of digital personal assistants. Additionally, we identify and discuss unique issues discovered around the invisible interface, interactive freedom, and creative appropriation. We use our findings to propose implications for interaction design of DPAs for home use.

数字个人助理家庭使用的数字民族志

摘要

带有集成数字个人助理的家庭商业化语音用户界面设备,如 Amazon Echo、Google Home 和 Apple HomePod,已迅速普及。这些设备体现了智能软件代理,通过简单直观的对话交互为用户的日常生活提供支持。虽然它们在日常活动中的使用在很大程度上尚未得到探索,但家庭使用的激增提供了一个宝贵的机会,可以加深对家庭数字个人助理使用的理解。在本文中,我们在广泛的背景下调查了他们的家庭使用情况,以更多地了解人们对这些设备的体验、态度、互动和期望,从而为当前有关此用途的知识提供新的见解。应用数字民族志方法,我们在 Amazon、eBay 和 Reddit 上收集了 3542 条关于 Amazon Echo、Google Home 和 Apple HomePod 的评论和评论。通过过滤、主题分析和亲和力图表,得出了 6 个主要主题和 29 个类别。这些发现构成了一个概念框架,描述了当前家庭使用数字个人助理的情况。此外,我们识别和讨论围绕隐形界面、交互自由和创意挪用发现的独特问题。我们使用我们的发现来提出对家用 DPA 交互设计的影响。这些发现构成了一个概念框架,描述了当前家庭使用数字个人助理的情况。此外,我们识别和讨论围绕隐形界面、交互自由和创意挪用发现的独特问题。我们使用我们的发现来提出对家用 DPA 交互设计的影响。这些发现构成了一个概念框架,描述了当前家庭使用数字个人助理的情况。此外,我们识别和讨论围绕隐形界面、交互自由和创意挪用发现的独特问题。我们使用我们的发现来提出对家用 DPA 交互设计的影响。
