Futuring Machines: An Interactive Framework for Participative Futuring Through Human-AI Collaborative Speculative Fiction Writing [PDF]
Imagining future scenarios arising from events and (in)actions is crucial for democratic participation, but is often left to experts who have in-depth knowledge of, for example, social, political, environmental or technological trends.

Towards Empathic Conversational Interaction [PDF]
In recent years, "computational empathy" has emerged as a new challenging research field. Computational empathy investigates how artificial agents can manifest empathic behaviours towards the user, and how they can elicit empathy during the human-agent ...

Objective To evaluate utility of an artificial intelligence (AI) health coach for systemic sclerosis (SSc) self‐management and identify patterns associated with participant engagement. Methods We conducted a mixed methods study in which an AI health coach, powered by a large language model (LLM), was used to support self‐management for SSc.

Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite
The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.

Recommending Learning Objects with Arguments and Explanations
The massive presence of online learning resources leads many students to have more information than they can consume efficiently. Therefore, students do not always find adaptive learning material for their needs and preferences. In this paper, we present

Understanding and Measuring User Experience in Conversational Interfaces
AbstractAlthough various methods have been developed to evaluate conversational interfaces, there has been a lack of methods specifically focusing on evaluating user experience. This paper reviews the understandings of user experience (UX) in conversational interfaces literature and examines the six questionnaires commonly used for evaluating ...

Closed‐Loop Solid‐State Synthesis Planning for Materials Discovery With Large Language Models
Leveraging literature data, we build a large‐language‐model‐driven workflow that extracts synthesis steps from 4407 papers, retrieves similar precedents, and generates candidate solid‐state synthesis recipes. The system benchmarks against ground‐truth and then operates in a closed loop with experiments to synthesize oxy‐selenide electrolyte materials ...
