• Abstract: Customising AI technologies to each user's preferences is fundamental to them functioning well. Unfortunately, current methods require too much user involvement and fail to capture their true preferences. In fact, to avoid the nuisance of manually setting preferences, users usually accept the default settings even if these do not conform to their true preferences. Norms can be useful to regulate behaviour and ensure it adheres to user preferences but, while the literature has thoroughly studied norms, most proposals take a formal perspective. Indeed, while there has been some research on constructing norms to capture a user's privacy preferences, these methods rely on domain knowledge which, in the case of AI technologies, is difficult to obtain and maintain. We argue that a new perspective is required when constructing norms, which is to exploit the large amount of preference information readily available from whole systems of users. Inspired by recommender systems, we believe that collaborative filtering can offer a suitable approach to identifying a user's norm preferences without excessive user involvement.

  Sequential recommender models learn to predict the next items a user is likely to interact with based on his/her interaction history on the platform. Most sequential recommenders however lack a higher-level understanding of user intents, which often drive user behaviors online. Intent modeling is thus critical for understanding users and optimizing long-term user experience.

  We argue that system designers should: estimate the shifts a recommender would induce; evaluate whether such shifts would be undesirable; and even actively optimize to avoid problematic shifts. We do this by using historical user interaction data to train predictive user model which implicitly contains their preference dynamics. In simulated experiments, we show that our learned preference dynamics model is effective in estimating user preferences and how they would respond to new recommenders.

  Privacy and ethics of citizens are at the core of the concerns raised by our increasingly digital society. We focus on the privacy dimension and contribute a step in the above direction through an empirical study on an existing dataset collected from the fitness domain. The results reveal that a compact set of semantic-driven questions helps distinguish users better than a complex domain-dependent one.

  We show that matrix factorization-based collaborative filtering algorithms induce a kind of stereotyping. If preferences for a textitset of items are anti-correlated in the general user population, then those items may not be recommended together to a user. We propose an alternative modelling fix, which is designed to capture the diverse multiple interests of each user.
