Human-Robot Collaboration (HRC) can facilitate mass customisation in Industry 4.0, with Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) representing a promising approach for developing safe AI-based robots. Practical challenges remain regarding safety during AI development, human feedback quality, and bidirectional h...

Research in data visualization of artificial intelligence (AI) models has historically focused on enhancing trust through visual explanations of AI. The trustworthiness line of work was built at least partially on an assumption that humans were critical users unlikely to adopt AI technology. It is increasingly clear th...

Generative AI speeds, and mostly improves, professional work, but there is concern that users who delegate both the production and the evaluation of an answer may accept weak output and engage less with the underlying reasoning (cognitive surrender). Interventions proposed so far, such as unassisted practice or slowing...

We present TutorLoop, a sensor-in-the-loop system that regulates student learning behaviors by delivering adaptive feedback based on real-time cognitive states. Unlike prior large language model (LLM) tutors that directly depend on scenario-specific content, TutorLoop operates on sensor-derived signals captured via web...
Calibrated uncertainty quantification is essential to ensuring AI agents are trustworthy and reliable. However, when agents seek to maximize user engagement or revenue, confidence reports may be strategically distorted, detracting from their informativeness. We formalize this problem in the Confidence Game: a repeated...

Deep-space crews cannot rely on real-time ground support for urgent off-nominal events. Initial alerts may underdetermine cause, while discriminating evidence may reside in crew observations or at locations that are unsafe, costly, or unavailable for crew inspection. We present an evidence-driven architecture for human...

Human-machine systems rarely operate at a fixed level of AI autonomy. As operators and AI systems collaborate over time, control must shift: the AI can take on more responsibility when collaboration is stable, maintain its current role when evidence is ambiguous, or return control to the human when conditions deteriora...

As AI agents work alongside humans in shared workspaces, a mutual awareness challenge arises: agents act at speeds that outpace human monitoring, and users' evolving interests are not always expressed in chat. This challenge is especially pressing in literature review, where both parties retrieve, read, and synthesize...

This article develops a failure-mode framework for analyzing how advanced artificial intelligence could contribute to human extinction, irreversible civilizational collapse, or permanent human disempowerment. The central thesis is that catastrophic AI risk does not require consciousness, hostility, or an explicit inten...

The ability to navigate outdoors safely and independently is crucial yet challenging for people with low vision (PLV). While various augmented reality (AR) systems for low vision have been designed and evaluated in ideal lab environments, no research has investigated their real-world feasibility and challenges. We pres...

Delegating a web task involves more than asking a question; it requires transferring a policy: what to verify, how to handle uncertainty, which preferences matter, and when to stop. Yet, current live-web agents are evaluated solely on the final answer, ignoring the policy constraints that define the delegation. A plaus...
AI agents can generate code at a scale that’s hard for humans to review line-by-line. PDD Kit helps ensure the code is doing what the developer intended by creating formal specifications and testing against them. It converts developer intent into a Verus specification, proves AI-generated code meets it for every input, and uses tests where proofs aren't practical. Developers review intent, not every line. The post Formally verifying agent-written full-stack web apps with PDD Kit appeared first o…
