About
Hussam Alhalbusi is a rising scholar at the intersection of human-computer interaction and psychological well-being, with a focused research agenda on the societal and individual effects of conversational AI. His work critically examines how users perceive, trust, and stereotype chatbot systems like ChatGPT, and how these perceptions cascade into impacts on self-esteem and mental health. In his highly cited 2023 paper—accumulating over 78 citations—Alhalbusi decodes the intricate relationships between user trust, stereotype perception, and psychological well-being, revealing that chatbot interactions can both empower and threaten users’ self-concept. A second influential study (32 citations) reinforces these findings, while a third explores the moderating role of job anxiety, highlighting how professional insecurity amplifies the psychological risks of AI engagement. By bridging technology adoption with clinical psychology, Alhalbusi provides essential insights for designing ethically responsible AI that safeguards user mental health. His work is particularly timely as generative AI becomes embedded in daily life, making him a key voice in the ongoing conversation about human-centered AI design.
