Abstract
Generative AIs or LLMs such as ChatGPT are increasingly used in service design synthesis. This article discusses research developing personas through human-led and AI-assisted processes during community engagement research. It identifies subtle narrative shifts and proposes community-anchored practices to retain interpretive accountability. Interpretation, ultimately, remains human work.
