Todo lists, docs, email style – if you've got individual or team knowledge you want ChatGPT/Claude to have access to, Knoll (knollapp.com) is a personal RAG store from Stanford University that you can add any knowledge into. Instead of copy-pasting into your prompt every time,

Photoshop for text. In our #CHI2025 paper “Textoshop”, we explore how interactions inspired by drawing software can help edit text. We consider words as pixels, sentences as regions, and tones as colours. #HCI #NLProc #LLMs #AI Thread 🧵 (1/10)

Check out our latest work on steerable alignment! We improve on a typical in-context learning approach with semantic retrieval by proposing metrics that instead select examples that best exemplify a group's shared values, enabling inference-time alignment to a particular group ➡️

We are hosting the MIT Programming Languages Review on April 25th in person here at MIT! The PLR is a student-run workshop that aims to highlight the best papers from the past year that we believe will have a significant impact on shaping the future direction of PL research.

Excited to share our #chi2025 paper "Proactive Agents with Inner Thoughts"! We introduce a new way to build proactive AI agents, that don't just wait to be prompted, but think alongside the conversation and decide if, when, and how to speak based on their own inner thoughts 💬🧠

Now that we got a Best Paper award at #CHI2025 🏆, I have to tweet about this! We studied how 39 software professionals - designers, PMs, and engineers - prototype GenAI applications. (I had fun co-conspiring with Divy Divy Thakkar on this paper.) Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2402.17721 1/n

#CHI2025 paper on human–AI alignment! 🧵 Models can learn the right concepts but still be wrong in how they relate them. ✨Abstraction Alignment✨evaluates whether models learn human-aligned conceptual relationships. It reveals misalignments in LLMs💬 and medical datasets🏥.

I've been quiet for a while on the social media front -- it's been a very busy two years with an international move and setting up a new lab at KAIST, but I wanted to take a moment to highlight some of my students' fantastic new work in the domain of online safety.

Putting it out there - I'll be at #chi2025 but only around Sat night - Mon night, if you'd like to catch up! In particular, I'm interested in chatting with potential post-docs in the areas of AI and social media governance + human-AI agent / team-AI interaction. Email/DM me!!

Hi! I'm gonna be presenting this at #ICLR2025 during the Thursday poster session (4/24; 3 p.m - 5:30 p.m, Hall 3 + Hall 2B #208). Come by if you want to talk about making ice cream!! (and also human-computer grounding, interacting with LMs, user models, etc.)

AI agents are entering online social spaces, but often their messages feel generic or intrusive. In our #CHI25 paper, we introduce Social-RAG, a workflow that grounds AI generations in the specific group context by retrieving from the group’s interaction history. 🧵(1/9)

✨Kevin Feng and Rock Pang are kicking off the panel on sociotechnical AI governance! #CHI2025

Excited to kick off the first workshop on Sociotechnical AI Governance at #chi2025 (STAIG@CHI'25) with a morning poster session in a full house! Looking forward to more posters, discussions, and our keynote in the afternoon. Follow our schedule at chi-staig.github.io!

☀️ Our amazing team of student volunteers is all set and excited for the conference kickoff! #CHI2025

Serving as the Student Volunteer Co-Chair at @ACM_CHI has been an incredible experience! A huge thank you to the 200 student volunteers who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to help make the conference a success. Looking forward to seeing you all next year in Barcelona!

Well... a new chapter is starting! I'm over the moon to be joining MIT EECS / MIT CSAIL as an Assistant Professor, starting Fall 2026. 🌕 (1/5)

Thrilled to share that I’ve successfully defended my PhD dissertation and I will be joining MIT as an Assistant Professor starting Fall 2026, with a shared appointment between Sloan and EECS! I will be recruiting PhD students this upcoming cycle. Consider applying to MIT EECS!

I'm so excited to join the CS department at Johns Hopkins University as an Assistant Professor! I'm looking for students interested in social computing, HCI, and AI—especially around designing better online systems in the age of LLMs. Come work with me! piccardi.me
