Even with a fixed dataset and research question, data analysis involves many defensible decisions. Understanding how these choices influence the results is scientifically important but remains challenging. Crowdsourcing and agentic AI can generate hundreds of end-to-end analyses, but scaling generation alone can create...
It is found that user studies explain substantially more variation in mechanism acceptance than physical deviation, although physical deviation remains significant.
People increasingly use general-purpose chatbots such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini for mental health and emotional support. We report a multi-stage longitudinal qualitative study of 18 U.S. adults, conducted from April to December 2025, combining initial interviews, a four-week diary study, focus groups, and exit int...

Automated decision-making (ADM) systems are increasingly deployed in domains such as mortgage lending, prison sentencing, health insurance coverage, and hiring. Designing a responsible ADM system in such high-stakes domains requires ensuring privacy protection, fairness across demographic groups, and robustness against...

When a coding agent finishes a task, the developer reviews a summary the agent wrote about itself, not a display someone designed. We ask how much of the agent's work that summary carries, and whether it drifts toward the plan the agent stated when execution departed from it. Across 5,851 real developer sessions and 35...

Older adults aging in place often have informal support systems to help them maintain independence and quality of life. As they age, many older adults deal with the onset of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), which introduces a new set of functional and cognitive changes that affect their ability to manage daily routines...

The findings suggest that HWAMW facilitates restorying and offers a valuable paradigm for AI-assisted writing, wherein LLMs do not tell their stories but rather help us see greater potential in the stories the authors tell.

A behavioural measurement framework combining intent and delegated decision authority is introduced to quantify what consumers seek from AI and how much decision-making authority they assign to it, finding that financial services are already a substantial AI use case.

PEARL (Personalized Early-exit Adaptive Reinforcement Learning) reduces adversarial state-inference accuracy by 25.67% on average with a controlled 10-16% utility cost, establishing a practical, dynamically enforceable privacy-utility tradeoff.
BRIDGE-EEG, an efficient multi-task EEG classification pipeline that preserves the benefits of pretraining while reducing model size is introduced and six benchmarks spanning abnormality detection, motor imagery, and emotion recognition are evaluated.

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.
