Knowing Is Not Enough: Information Retrievability as a Precondition to Effective LLM Oversight

This work develops an alternative, retrieval-based account of human oversight and posit that error detection is more effective when oversight-relevant information is accessible to users at the moment of review, and shows that self-generated explanations improve error detection and strengthen recall of verification-rele...

ChartAnno: Evaluating MLLMs for Chart Annotation Generation

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have made significant progress in chart understanding, generation, and editing, but their ability to annotate existing charts remains underexplored. Annotating charts is a common yet challenging communicative task, requiring models to infer intended messages, interpret chart sem...

Toward Interaction Dynamics: A Predictive Framework for Safe Physical Human Robot Interaction

Physical human-robot interaction requires yielding transiently to contact yet recovering the commanded reference under sustained load. Finite-stiffness impedance control retains a static deflection there, while predictive alternatives typically optimize a nonlinear robot or impedance model online. Operational-space can...

Fact-Checking Comments Precede Community Notes to Misleading Posts on X

Community-based fact-checking systems, such as X's Community Notes program, offer a potentially scalable approach against online misinformation diffusion. However, their efficacy is substantially undermined by the delay of fact-check delivery. To address this challenge, we investigated the promise of organic user comme...

Less Is More: Balancing Positive and Negative Space in Visual Concept Blending

Graphic designers often blend visual concepts to communicate multiple ideas within a single image, leveraging positive and negative space to create balance, emphasis, and aesthetic appeal. While computational methods have begun to support automatic concept blending, they largely overlook the role of spatial composition...

AMINA: The Inclusive and Accountable AI for Marginalized Immigrant Nonprofit Assistance

Immigrant-led nonprofit groups, particularly those operating in politically sensitive contexts, face exclusion from formal registries and digital platforms. This paper reports a three-phase mixed-methods study with Iranian immigrant nonprofit practitioners: 27 semi-structured interviews, a co-design session, and 7 eval...

What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us

Jennifer Neville did not want to go into computer science—but that’s exactly where she landed. Neville discusses the starts and stops that led to her professional sweet spot and her work identifying “surprising failures” making it hard for AI to handle complexity.  The post What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us appeared first on Microsoft Research.
