PhysDox: Benchmarking LLMs on Physical Feasibility Auditing of Physiological Sensing Protocols

PhysDox is introduced, a physical feasibility auditing benchmark for biomedical protocols comprising a 683-sample expert-curated Gold set and a 5,000-sample Silver set across six sensing domains, demonstrating that protocol auditing demands calibrated feasibility reasoning rather than factual recall or longer rationale...

LitPivot: Developing Well-Situated Research Ideas Through Dynamic Contextualization and Critique within the Literature Landscape

Developing a novel research idea is hard. It must be distinct enough from prior work to claim a contribution while also building on it. This requires iteratively reviewing literature and refining an idea based on what a researcher reads; yet when an idea changes, the literature that matters often changes with it. Most...

AI Eyes on the Road: Cross-Cultural Perspectives on Traffic Surveillance

AI-powered road surveillance systems are increasingly proposed to monitor infractions such as speeding, phone use, and jaywalking. While these systems promise to enhance safety by discouraging dangerous behaviors, they also raise concerns about privacy, fairness, and potential misuse of personal data. Yet empirical res...

Describe Me Something You Do Not Remember - Challenges and Risks of Exposure Design Using Generative Artificial Intelligence for Therapy of Complex Post-traumatic Stress Disorder

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with sudden, uncontrollable, and intense flashbacks of traumatic memories. Trauma exposure psychotherapy has proven effective in reducing the severity of trauma-related symptoms. It involves controlled recall of traumatic memories to train coping mechanisms for flashb...

When Visual Quality Misleads: Intent Recognition under Rendered Avatar Distortions

Avatar-streaming systems are commonly evaluated with image and video quality assessment (IQA/VQA) metrics, implicitly treating visual fidelity as a proxy for communicative success. We test this assumption through a controlled behavioral study of rendered 3D avatars across a pristine condition and fourteen geometric, ph...

Can Vision-Language Models Analyze Human-Centered Video? Mapping Model Capabilities and Human-AI Collaborative Workflows

This work systematically analyzes all 1,702 CHI 2026 full papers and identifies 125 that annotate videos, and derives a five-dimensional taxonomy spanning analytic purpose, viewpoint, phenomenon, reasoning requirement, and annotation authority to map the capabilities and limitations of a general-purpose VLM.

Building Socio-Affective Artificial Intelligence for Interactive Multi-Agent Simulations

The objective of this article is to provide design principles and a software architecture for enabling interaction between humans and multiple agents in simulated dynamic worlds. This connects the current era of general artificial intelligence (AI/AGI) with the proliferation of transformer-based conversational agents a...

Same Team Label, Different Evidence: A Full-Text Audit of Claim Denominators in Human-AI Teaming Research

Human-AI Teaming (HAT) reviews often group studies by labels such as advisor, teammate, or coordinator. Yet the same label can describe one person taking AI advice, several people coordinating around AI, or a workflow that distributes authority and responsibility. Pooling these studies can therefore change the human un...

Open Questions Towards Skill-Sustaining Reliance in Reflective AI Engagement

As AI systems are increasingly integrated into professional work, reflection strategies such as cognitive forcing and prompts that foster critical engagement have shown promise in reducing overreliance and improving decision quality. However, these strategies have primarily been evaluated as short-term interventions wi...

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.
