Cultural Influence on Code-mixing with Conversational AI
Agents
In increasingly multilingual societies, users often engage in code-mixing: mixing and switching words or phrases from multiple languages in everyday communication. However, mainstream conversational AI agents (CA) are predominantly designed for monolingual interactions, creating a disconnect between natural user behavior and system capabilities. In this research, I examined three bilingual user groups[N=15]: native Germans with immigrant family backgrounds, native Germans with a second language, and Indians who reside in Germany. Thematic analysis of the interviews revealed shared patterns of habitual code-mixing driven by comfort, expressiveness, and context. Following that, I conduct a scenario-based interview to gather reflections and preferences from users of different groups on an improved code-mixing CA.
