• Authors: Hua Shen, Chieh-Yang Huang, Tongshuang Wu, Ting-Hao 'Kenneth' Huang
• Abstract summary: This paper focuses on Conversational XAI for AI-assisted scientific writing tasks. We identify four design rationales: "multifaceted", "controllability", "mix-initiative", "context-aware drill-down" We incorporate them into an interactive prototype, ConvXAI, which facilitates heterogeneous AI explanations for scientific writing through dialogue.

• Abstract: Despite a surge collection of XAI methods, users still struggle to obtain required AI explanations. Previous research suggests chatbots as dynamic solutions, but the effective design of conversational XAI agents for practical human needs remains under-explored. This paper focuses on Conversational XAI for AI-assisted scientific writing tasks. Drawing from human linguistic theories and formative studies, we identify four design rationales: "multifaceted", "controllability", "mix-initiative", "context-aware drill-down". We incorporate them into an interactive prototype, ConvXAI, which facilitates heterogeneous AI explanations for scientific writing through dialogue. In two studies with 21 users, ConvXAI outperforms a GUI-based baseline on improving human-perceived understanding and writing improvement. The paper further discusses the practical human usage patterns in interacting with ConvXAI for scientific co-writing.

  We find that users' compliance increases with the introduction of XAI but is also affected by AI literacy. We also find that the relationships between AI literacy XAI and users' compliance are mediated by the users' mental model of AI.

  We conducted a study of a real-world AI application via interviews with 20 end-users of Merlin, a bird-identification app. We found that people express a need for practically useful information that can improve their collaboration with the AI system. We also assessed end-users' perceptions of existing XAI approaches, finding that they prefer part-based explanations.

We see the notion of HCAI agent, together with its components and functions, as a way to bridge the technical and non-technical discussions on human-centered AI.

The robot builds a hierarchical mind model of the human user and generates explanations of its own mind as a form of communications. Results show that the generated explanations of our approach significantly improves the collaboration performance and user perception of the robot.
