Semi-Structured Interview Guide on Human–AI Interaction

This document contains a semi-structured interview guide designed to explore individuals’ experiences with generative AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude) and AI agents. The guide covers topics such as AI usage patterns, perceived agency and authorship, delegation and trust, emotional and moral responses, disclosure behavior, skill development, and identity-related implications of human–AI interaction. The interview structure is organized into thematic blocks, progressing from background information to deeper reflections on self-concept, autonomy, and comparison with classical IT tools.

The interviews follow an open-ended, experience-oriented approach, encouraging participants to share concrete situations, personal interpretations, and reflections. This design allows for rich qualitative insights into how AI tools influence work practices, thinking processes, and identity construction.

Methodological Note:The headings and keywords included in the interview guide were intended solely as orientation for the interviewer. They were not disclosed or read aloud to participants in order to avoid priming effects and to ensure that responses emerged naturally from the participants’ own framing and experiences.
