In this pictorial, we consider how the negotiation of creative boundaries with a co-creative AI system can create moments for personal creative reflection. We ground this in our experiences with Froggi-Draw, a single-initiative co-doodling system that gives users power to decide when and how much an AI"collaborator"(Fr...
Visual search is a fundamental cognitive ability. This study investigates whether Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) exhibit human-like difficulty signatures in visual search tasks. We compared search performance of humans (n = 1,250) and MLLMs using identical 2D and 3D stimuli across different set sizes. Both gr...
People write and sketch while speaking to explain, organize, and develop content together. Inspired by these practices, we investigate how voice agents can use a canvas alongside speech in multi-turn conversations with users. We conducted a two-part formative study: an observational study of how pairs coordinated speec...
Automated neurodevelopmental assessment increasingly combines computer vision, speech, eye tracking, physiology, and machine learning, yet multimodality and discrimination do not establish construct validity, clinical usefulness, or appropriate interpretation of behavioral variation. We propose a testable architecture...

General turn-taking behavior in real-time dialogue systems requires deciding whether to keep listening or start responding while listening, and whether to continue or stop while speaking. Existing turn detectors use heterogeneous, task-specific label spaces and are often trained on limited annotations or evaluated on i...
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed to simulate human behavior, acting as computational replicas of human subjects. Yet the lived psychological experience of humans is difficult to benchmark, particularly as it unfolds over time. We introduce a psychometric benchmark for computational replicas: perso...
Human-agent teams are collaborative systems where humans and agents work interdependently to achieve shared goals. The success of such teams is associated with the human's perception of the agent as a legitimate teammate. This perception is thought to depend not only on the agent's capabilities and reliability but also...
AI agents that send emails, edit files, and make purchases must decide when to act on their own and when to check with the user first. This decision is usually evaluated by showing a model a proposed action, asking whether it should proceed, and scoring agreement with human labels. We introduce DelegationBench to test...
The increasing availability of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools, such as ChatGPT and code-completion assistants, raises questions about how learners integrate these tools into learning activities, particularly in MOOCs that attract diverse participant populations. This study examines the use of GenAI in...
As LLMs are increasingly deployed in high-stakes professional workflows, engineers and researchers require principled protocols to systematically track, monitor, and improve model performance across deployment cycles. We present a mathematical framework for iterative LLM evaluation and deployment, and demonstrate its a...
Indigenous peoples across Turtle Island face disproportionate rates of disappearance and murder, a genocide rooted in settler-colonial violence and systemic erasure. Technology plays a crucial role in the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives (MMIR) crisis: it perpetuates systemic violence and impedes investigation...
Text-to-3D generation lowers the barrier to 3D content creation, but text alone is a weak interface for specifying spatial intent: where parts should be placed, how they relate, and how an object should be organized in 3D. We present HandMade, a workflow that combines VR 3D sketching and language for open-domain 3D ass...
Students in MIT’s Concourse program delve deeply into the human condition, debate challenging questions, and learn to develop judgment about issues that can’t be quantified.
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.
Able to defeat top-ranked human players and more efficient than other models, the new system could help decision-makers in military maneuvers or business negotiations.
