After operating in stealth for the last 18 months @rhodaai , we’re excited today to finally show the world what we’ve been working on. We believe we’re on a path to physical AGI with the launch of our brand new foundation model, the Direct Video Action (DVA) model.

We created COALA, a visual analytics tool that helps understand how native & non-native English speakers write differently when writing together. Our findings can help build better AI writing assistants for teams. Related #CSCW paper: dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/36869…
Excited to share our #CHI2025 paper "Comparing Native and Non-native English Speakers' Behaviors in Collaborative Writing through Visual Analytics" with @zcliu @kzintas @umdcs Yimin Xiao, Ge Gao @INFOCollegeUMD @hcil_umd Naomi Yamashita @NTTPR #NAACL #in2writing #DataAnalytics

📌NLI Improves Compositionality in Vision-Language Models is accepted to #ICLR2025! CECE enables interpretability and achieves significant improvements in hard compositional benchmarks without fine-tuning (e.g., Winoground, EqBen) and alignment (e.g., DrawBench, EditBench).

New #emnlp2024 paper (oral presentation on Nov 12 (tomorrow), 12:15-12:30 Monroe): TL;DR: When a model fails, it can still guide a human to success. We show that uncertainty communication improves human decision making, in the context of navigation! Why is this exciting? Uncertainty communication has been promoted as a desirable feature of ML models, but it remains unclear what benefits it provides beyond fostering human trust. We may be among the first to demonstrate the positive effects of uncertainty communication on human decision-making. You can read our paper now: arxiv.org/abs/2402.16973 and check out our demo: navigation.umiacs.umd.edu/ex…

No AI system is perfect. Instead of hiding AI's flaws, what if we could leverage them to help users? Our #CSCW2024 paper on Seamful XAI shows exposing and leveraging AI weaknesses can improve user understanding & agency. w/ @mark_riedl @QVeraLiao @samirpassi @haldaume3
