• Abstract summary: Large language models (LLMs) are shaping a new user interface (UI) paradigm in writing tools by enabling users to generate text through prompts. This paradigm shifts some creative control from the user to the system, thereby diminishing the user's authorship and autonomy in the writing process. We introduce Textfocals, a prototype designed to investigate a human-centered approach that emphasizes the user's role in writing.

• Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are shaping a new user interface (UI) paradigm in writing tools by enabling users to generate text through prompts. This paradigm shifts some creative control from the user to the system, thereby diminishing the user's authorship and autonomy in the writing process. To restore autonomy, we introduce Textfocals, a UI prototype designed to investigate a human-centered approach that emphasizes the user's role in writing. Textfocals supports the writing process by providing LLM-generated summaries, questions, and advice (i.e., LLM views) in a sidebar of a text editor, encouraging reflection and self-driven revision in writing without direct text generation. Textfocals' UI affordances, including contextually adaptive views and scaffolding for prompt selection and customization, offer a novel way to interact with LLMs where users maintain full authorship of their writing. A formative user study with Textfocals showed promising evidence that this approach might help users develop underdeveloped ideas, cater to the rhetorical audience, and clarify their writing. However, the study also showed interaction design challenges related to document navigation and scoping, prompt engineering, and context management. Our work highlights the breadth of the design space of writing support interfaces powered by generative AI that maintain authorship integrity.

  We introduce a novel task of Multimodal Style Translation (MuST-Bench) MuST-Bench is a benchmark designed to evaluate the ability of visual text generation models to perform translation across different writing systems. In response, we introduce SIGIL, a framework for multimodal style translation that eliminates the need for style descriptions.

  Large language models (LLMs) are becoming more prevalent and have found a ubiquitous use in providing different forms of writing assistance. We introduce GhostWriter, an AI-enhanced writing design probe where users can exercise enhanced agency and personalization. We study 18 participants who use GhostWriter on two different writing tasks, observing that it helps users craft personalized text generations and empowers them by providing multiple ways to control the system's writing style.
