- Social, ethical, juridical, political, and business implications
- Assistants and chatbots in research and society, e.g., plagiarism, authorship
- Methods, models, and architectures to design and manage AI-based assistants and platforms
- Strategy, innovation, and management of assistants and platforms

- Transparency and explainability of the behavior of AI-based assistants
- User, context, cognitive, and learning models
- Assessments of AI-based assistants and platforms, e.g. quality, maturity
