High-fidelity, AI-based simulated classroom systems enable teachers to rehearse effective teaching strategies. However, dialogue-oriented open-ended conversations such as teaching a student about scale factors can be difficult to model.…
The ability of a machine to communicate with humans has long been associated with the general success of AI. This dates back to Alan Turing's epoch-making work in the early 1950s, which proposes that a machine's intelligence can be tested…
Generative AI (GenAI) chatbots are becoming increasingly integrated into virtual assistant technologies, yet their success hinges on the ability to gather meaningful user feedback to improve interaction quality, system outcomes, and overall…
In this paper, we present a methodology for the development of embodied conversational agents for social virtual worlds. The agents provide multimodal communication with their users in which speech interaction is included. Our proposal…
Despite its benefits for children's skill development and parent-child bonding, many parents do not often engage in interactive storytelling by having story-related dialogues with their child due to limited availability or challenges in…
This paper explores educational interactions involving humans and artificial intelligences not as sequences of prompts and responses, but as a social process of conversation and exploration. In this conception, learners continually converse…
We consider the problem of designing an artificial agent capable of interacting with humans in collaborative dialogue to produce creative, engaging narratives. In this task, the goal is to establish universe details, and to collaborate on…
The emergence of generative AI has accelerated the development of conversational tutoring systems that interact with students through natural language dialogue. Unlike prior intelligent tutoring systems (ITS), which largely function as…
Meaningful human-AI collaboration requires more than processing language; it demands a deeper understanding of symbols and their socially constructed meanings. While humans naturally interpret symbols through social interaction, AI systems…
A long-term goal of Artificial Intelligence is to build a language understanding system that allows a human to collaborate with a physical robot using language that is natural to the human. In this paper we highlight some of the challenges…
Artificial Intelligence-Generated Content (AIGC) has the potential to transform how people build and interact with virtual environments. Within this paper, we discuss potential benefits but also challenges that AIGC has for the creation of…
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) can profoundly affect reciprocal social communication, resulting in substantial and challenging impairments. One aspect is that for people with ASD conversations in everyday life are challenging due to…
Current AI approaches have frequently been used to help personalize many aspects of medical experiences and tailor them to a specific individuals' needs. However, while such systems consider medically-relevant information, they ignore…
The paper presents an approach to build a question and answer system that is capable of processing the information in a large dataset and allows the user to gain knowledge from this dataset by asking questions in natural language form. Key…
The dialogue experience with conversational agents can be greatly enhanced with multimodal and immersive interactions in virtual reality. In this work, we present an open-source architecture with the goal of simplifying the development of…
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a ubiquitous part of society, but a key challenge exists in ensuring that humans are equipped with the required critical thinking and AI literacy skills to interact with machines effectively by…
Modern conversational agents, including anime-themed chatbots, are frequently reactive and personality-driven but fail to capture the dynamic nature of human interactions. We propose an event-driven dialogue framework to address these…
The rapid adoption of Generative AI, including LLM-based chatbots like ChatGPT, has highlighted the need for accessible ways to support public understanding and AI literacy. To address this need, we introduce a game-based, interactive…
With the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI), digital humans have attracted more and more attention and are expected to achieve a wide range of applications in several industries. Then, most of the existing digital humans…
This exploratory study investigates the intersection of Generative AI tools and experiential learning in business education. Through a case study of an innovative undergraduate course, we examine how students interact with and adapt to…
