😵‍💫 Long-context human-AI planning with LLMs struggles when users have to manually manage all the context in messy chats (e.g. with ChatGPT). Meet 💡JumpStarter: task-structured context curation for better, collaborative planning with LLMs on complex tasks. 🧵 (1/n)

With all the Ghibli-style images in our thread, it's important to ask: How do artists perceive style transfer results? Who benefits from these results within the political economy of creative labor? Check out our #CHI25 paper for fresh insights! 📄✨ arxiv.org/pdf/2409.17410

With all the #Ghibli-fication of everything this week, it seems to be a good time to flag our paper on #styletransfer and #illustration (accepted for #chi2025). The takeaway: Copying style = extracting value arxiv.org/abs/2409.17410

Thanks, everyone. I'm very grateful to have gotten a Sloan Fellowship. But I also know how frequent and awful rejection is. Here is my rejected Sloan Research Statement (2023), and my awarded research statement (2025), and the difference between them: lydiachilton.substack.com/p/game-of-pivo…

🚨⚠️Recently reviewed a paper that copied my CHI '24 work, ReelFramer arxiv.org/pdf/2304.09653, almost word-for-word. And they even cited ReelFramer! 😱 A friend mentioned they came across a similar situation. Is this common? What should the community do to prevent such incidents?

The sense of touch is innately private, but what if it could be shared across individuals? We @StanfordVR studied shared body sensations in VR and found it increases body illusion and empathy toward others and influences social behavior. #ISMAR2024 🔗vhil.stanford.edu/publications/s…
