"Gamifying XAI: Enhancing AI Explainability for Non-technical Users through LLM-Powered Narrative Gamifications" is a project that explores how gamification and narrative-driven interactions, powered by Large Language Models (LLMs), can enhance AI explainability for non-technical users. The study focuses on integrating LLMs into Explainable AI (XAI) visualization technique, aiming to improve XAI visualizations' meaningfulness and relatedness for non-technical users. Our prototype introduces LLM-driven conversational NPCs that guide users through complex AI concepts and XAI visual encodings, helping them understand things like model prediction process and decision boundaries in a more intuitive way.
