Qualitative study with 18 participants using ProbeAssist, a prototype offering real-time AI probing suggestions during semi-structured interviews. Two variants were tested against a no-AI baseline. Users adopted AI as a supportive aid but resisted its assessor or competitor roles, with tensions around agency, ownership, creativity, and interpersonal communication.

Empirical qualitative data on how a third-party AI agent reshapes the social dynamics of a professional interaction, beyond task performance metrics. Useful for designers of triadic AI tools.
