New paper on human-AI interaction. We hire 18 writers to edit quirks in AI writing & see if #AI can mimic this process to improve its own writing Verdict: Writer-edited > AI-edited > AI-generated In other words:🚨Edits enhance alignment in writing🚨 🔗arxiv.org/pdf/2409.14509

I will be at EMNLP 2025 in Miami presenting our Main conference paper on how Human & AI perform on cognitively demanding creative thinking tasks (Nov 13th 4 PM) I am also recruiting PhD students at Stony Brook University Dept. of Computer Science starting Fall 2025. Details on my webpage. Say hi #NLProc

Excited to share ✨ Contextualized Evaluations ✨! Benchmarks like Chatbot Arena contain underspecified queries, which can lead to arbitrary eval judgments. What happens if we provide evaluators with context (e.g who's the user, what's their intent) when judging LM outputs? 🧵↓

Can laws be translated into software? In a new study, Nel Escher Jeffrey Bilik Nikola Banovic and I show that the translation process is rife with misunderstandings, leading to errors and policy distortions in legal software. dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/36…

#EMNLP2024 make sure to come to Ashe Auditorium at 5pm today to learn more about 😺 CaT-Bench! Great way to end the conference day and head to the social event happy 😁

Honored and humbled to awarded the 2024 Google PhD Fellow in #NLProc. Thankful to my advisor Kentaro Toyama, my mentors & collaborators Sunayana Sitaram and Jiyin Cao and friends School of Information for their support. Thank you Google AI for the honor.

📢I’m recruiting Ph.D students this cycle Computer Science and Engineering at Michigan , to invent and study mechanisms to support human expertise development, projects incl authoring techniques for tutoring systems, LLM-powered learning companions, simulated students, physical task tutoring, and more!

How well can VLMs detect and explain humans' procedural mistakes, like in cooking or assembly? 🧑‍🍳🧑‍🔧 My new pre-print with Itamar Bar-Yossef, Yayuan Li, Brian Zheyuan Zhang, Jason Corso, and Joyce Chai (Michigan SLED Lab MichiganAI Computer Science and Engineering at Michigan) dives into this! arxiv.org/pdf/2412.11927

Now accepted to #chi2025 ACM CHI Conference . Super stoked for Japan 🇯🇵

New Ai2 paper accepted to #NAACL2025! We worked with Teaching Lab and ASSISTments to create a new dataset for evaluating VLMs. DrawEduMath includes 2,030 teacher-annotated images of students’ handwritten responses to math problems. Website: drawedumath.org

🤗Thanks to those asking about our CHI session on Bidirectional 👫Human-AI🤖 Alignment! 🔥Exciting news — We’ll host both the 2025 #ICLR workshop & #CHI Special Interest Group (SIG), bringing together brilliant minds from #HCI & #AI experts to collectively explore how humans &

First CfP for #EMNLP2025 is live now. Submission deadline to May ARR cycle! Excited to be part of organizing the conference as publicity chair w/ Aaron Mueller Dallas Card so watch out for more updates esp by following the official conf account EMNLP 2025

New preprint out! GenAI is changing how we think 🧠 This work reviews its cognitive impacts. Using Bloom’s Taxonomy & Dewey’s theory of reflective thinking, it unpacks *how* it affects human cognition. arxiv.org/abs/2502.12447 With Karan Taneja Klara Guan Avijit Ghosh 🧵

😓 #AI co-pilots excel in information work, but what about emotional ones? Working with angry clients harms #MentalHealth 🫂 Our #CHI2025 paper w/ Microsoft Research introduces Care-Pilot, an AI-agent to empathetically support workers. #FutureOfWork bit.ly/carepilot2 [1/7]
