Behavior Latticing: Inferring User Motivations from Unstructured Interactions
Dora Zhao, Michelle S. Lam, Diyi Yang +1
A long-standing vision of computing is the personal AI system: one that understands us well enough to address our underlying needs. Today's AI focuses on what users do, ignoring wh…
Learning Next Action Predictors from Human-Computer Interaction
Omar Shaikh, Valentin Teutschbein, Kanishk Gandhi +8
Truly proactive AI systems must anticipate what we will do next. This foresight demands far richer information than the sparse signals we type into our prompts -- it demands reason…
Just-In-Time Objectives: A General Approach for Specialized AI Interactions
Michelle S. Lam, Omar Shaikh, Hallie Xu +5
Large language models promise a broad set of functions, but when not given a specific objective, they default to generic results. We demonstrate that inferring the user's in-the-mo…
Knoll: Creating a Knowledge Ecosystem for Large Language Models
Dora Zhao, Diyi Yang, Michael S. Bernstein
Large language models are designed to encode general purpose knowledge about the world from Internet data. Yet, a wealth of information falls outside this scope -- ranging from per…
Creating General User Models from Computer Use
Omar Shaikh, Shardul Sapkota, Shan Rizvi +4
Human-computer interaction has long imagined technology that understands us-from our preferences and habits, to the timing and purpose of our everyday actions. Yet current user mod…
LLM Agents Grounded in Self-Reports Enable General-Purpose Simulation of Individuals
Joon Sung Park, Carolyn Q. Zou, Jonne Kamphorst +8
Machine learning can predict human behavior well when substantial structured data are available for well-defined outcomes. Such models are typically outcome-specific, however, requ…
Aligning Language Models with Demonstrated Feedback
Omar Shaikh, Michelle S. Lam, Joey Hejna +4
Language models are aligned to emulate the collective voice of many, resulting in outputs that align with no one in particular. Steering LLMs away from generic output is possible t…
Social Skill Training with Large Language Models
Diyi Yang, Caleb Ziems, William Held +3
People rely on social skills like conflict resolution to communicate effectively and to thrive in both work and personal life. However, practice environments for social skills are…
Rehearsal: Simulating Conflict to Teach Conflict Resolution
Omar Shaikh, Valentino Chai, Michele J. Gelfand +2
Interpersonal conflict is an uncomfortable but unavoidable fact of life. Navigating conflict successfully is a skill -- one that can be learned through deliberate practice -- but f…
