• Abstract: We describe an AI-powered chatbot to aid with health improvement by generating Episodic Future Thinking (EFT) cue texts that should reduce delay discounting. In prior studies, EFT has been shown to address maladaptive health behaviors. Those studies involved participants, working with researchers, vividly imagining future events, and writing a description that they subsequently will frequently review, to ensure a shift from an inclination towards immediate rewards. That should promote behavior change, aiding in health tasks such as treatment adherence and lifestyle modifications. The AI chatbot is designed to guide users in generating personalized EFTs, automating the current labor-intensive interview-based process. This can enhance the efficiency of EFT interventions and make them more accessible, targeting specifically those with limited educational backgrounds or communication challenges. By leveraging AI for EFT intervention, we anticipate broadened access and improved health outcomes across diverse populations

  Our study introduces a dual approach: firstly, we employ Emotional Preference Optimization (EPO) to train chatbots. This training enables the model to discern fine distinctions between correct and counter-emotional responses. Secondly, we introduce MambaCompressor to effectively compress and manage extensive conversation histories. Our comprehensive experiments across multiple datasets demonstrate that our model significantly outperforms existing models in generating empathetic responses and managing lengthy dialogues.

  We focus on predicting engagement in dyadic interactions by scrutinizing verbal and non-verbal cues, aiming to detect signs of disinterest or confusion. In this work, we collect a dataset featuring 34 participants engaged in casual dyadic conversations, each providing self-reported engagement ratings at the end of each conversation. We introduce a novel fusion strategy using Large Language Models (LLMs) to integrate multiple behavior modalities into a multimodal transcript''

  This paper focuses on the role of chatbots in healthcare and explores the use of avatars to make AI interactions more appealing to patients. A framework of a general-purpose AI avatar application is demonstrated by using a three-category prompt dictionary and prompt improvement mechanism. A two-phase approach is suggested to fine-tune a general-purpose AI language model and create different AI avatars to discuss medical issues with users.
