• Authors: Agnese Augello and Manuel Gentile and Frank Dignum
• Abstract summary: This paper describes the model of social practice as a theoretical framework to manage conversation with the specific goal of training physicians in communicative skills. We use a probabilistic model for the selection of social practices as a step toward the implementation of an agent architecture compliant with the social practice model.

• Abstract: This paper describes the model of social practice as a theoretical framework to manage conversation with the specific goal of training physicians in communicative skills. To this aim, the domain reasoner that manages the conversation in the Communicate! \cite{jeuring} serious game is taken as a basis. Because the choice of a specific Social Practice to follow in a situation is non-trivial we use a probabilistic model for the selection of social practices as a step toward the implementation of an agent architecture compliant with the social practice model.

  People rely on social skills like conflict resolution to communicate effectively and to thrive in both work and personal life. This perspective paper identifies social skill barriers to enter specialized fields. We present a solution that leverages large language models for social skill training via a generic framework.

  We present a model of pragmatic language understanding, where utterances are produced and understood by searching for regularized equilibria of signaling games. In this model speakers and listeners search for contextually appropriate utterance--meaning mappings that are both close to game-theoretically optimal conventions and close to a shared, ''default'' semantics.

  Social alignment in AI systems aims to ensure that these models behave according to established societal values. Current language models (LMs) are trained to rigidly replicate their training corpus in isolation. This work presents a novel training paradigm that permits LMs to learn from simulated social interactions.

  We present a formalization of a social framework for agents based on the concept of Social Practices. Social practices facilitate the practical reasoning of agents in standard social interactions. They also come with a social context that gives handles for social planning and deliberation.

  Social language used by human agents is associated with greater users' responsiveness and task completion. The model uses a sequence-to-sequence deep learning architecture, extended with a social language understanding element. Evaluation in terms of content preservation and social language level using both human judgment and automatic linguistic measures shows that the model can generate responses that enable agents to address users' issues in a more socially appropriate way.

  routines play an important role in a wide range of social challenges such as climate change, disease outbreaks and coordinating staff and patients in a hospital. To use agent-based simulations (ABS) to understand the role of routines in social challenges we need an agent framework that integrates routines. This paper provides the domain-independent Social Practice Agent framework that satisfies requirements from the literature to simulate our routines.

Experimental results illustrate that our method generates a reasonable and consistent social relation graph.
