📢Is current “human-AI alignment” research clarified and comprehensive? 🤔 We systematically reviewed 400+ papers across HCI, NLP, and ML to develop a framework for 👫<>🤖"Bidirectional Human-AI Alignment", encompassing the dual paths of “Aligning AI to Human” and “Aligning Human to AI”. We also clarified core questions 🎯 of 'what is the alignment goal?', 'with whom to align?', and 'what are the human values?’ Further, we share 👩‍💻 our findings on values and interaction techniques for alignment. Check out the three challenges and potential solutions we envision for future research🌟! #HumanAIAlignment 💎arxiv.org/abs/2406.09264. 🧵1/ Huge thanks to our amazing team 💗 @tknearem, @reshmigh, Kenan Alkiek, @kundan_official, @YachuanLiu, @ziqiao_ma, @savvas_petridis, @yolohao, Li Qiwei, Sushrita Rakshit, @ChengleiSi, @yutxie, and our fabulous advisors @jeffbigham, @bentley79, Joyce Chai, @zacharylipton, @meiqzh, @radamihalcea, Michael Terry, @Diyi_Yang, @merrierm, @presnick, @david__jurgens! 🙏 Many thanks for all your great effort🤗!
