• Title: Towards a new Social Choice Theory
• Authors: Andr\'es Garc\'ia-Camino
• Abstract summary: Social choice is the theory about collective decision towards social welfare starting from individual opinions, preferences, interests or welfare. The field of Computational Social Welfare is somewhat recent and it is gaining impact in the Artificial Intelligence Community. I want to introduce, following my Open Standardization and Open Integration Theory, as a global social goal of Social Choice Optimization.

• Abstract: Social choice is the theory about collective decision towards social welfare starting from individual opinions, preferences, interests or welfare. The field of Computational Social Welfare is somewhat recent and it is gaining impact in the Artificial Intelligence Community. Classical literature makes the assumption of single-peaked preferences, i.e. there exist a order in the preferences and there is a global maximum in this order. This year some theoretical results were published about Two-stage Approval Voting Systems (TAVs), Multi-winner Selection Rules (MWSR) and Incomplete (IPs) and Circular Preferences (CPs). The purpose of this paper is three-fold: Firstly, I want to introduced Social Choice Optimisation as a generalisation of TAVs where there is a max stage and a min stage implementing thus a Minimax, well-known Artificial Intelligence decision-making rule to minimize hindering towards a (Social) Goal. Secondly, I want to introduce, following my Open Standardization and Open Integration Theory (in refinement process) put in practice in my dissertation, the Open Standardization of Social Inclusion, as a global social goal of Social Choice Optimization.

• Representative Social Choice: From Learning Theory to AI Alignment [0.0]
  In representative social choice, the population is represented by a finite sample of individual-issue pairs based on which social choice decisions are made. We show that many of the deepest questions in representative social choice can be naturally formulated as statistical learning problems. We further formulates for representative social choice, and prove Arrow-like axioms with new tools of generalization analysis.

  We introduce the task of judging social acceptance. Social acceptance requires models to judge and rationalize the acceptability of people's actions in social situations. We find that large language models' understanding of social acceptance is often misaligned with human consensus.

  Social recommendation models weave social interactions into their design to provide uniquely personalized recommendation results for users. Existing social recommendation models fail to address the issues of popularity bias and the redundancy of social information. We propose a Condition-Guided Social Recommendation Model (named CGSoRec) to mitigate the model's popularity bias.

  We present SOTOPIA, an open-ended environment to simulate complex social interactions between artificial agents and humans. In our environment, agents role-play and interact under a wide variety of scenarios; they coordinate, collaborate, exchange, and compete with each other to achieve complex social goals. We find that GPT-4 achieves a significantly lower goal completion rate than humans and struggles to exhibit social commonsense reasoning and strategic communication skills.
