Dear colleagues,


We invite you to submit your fitting research to The Second Workshop on Intelligent and Interactive Writing Assistants at The ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI 2023)<https://chi2023.acm.org/>


The purpose of this interdisciplinary workshop is to facilitate discussion around writing assistants, thereby enhancing our understanding of their usage in writing process and predicting the consequences. To this end, we strive to bring together researchers from the human-computer interaction (HCI) and natural language processing (NLP) communities by alternating our workshop venue between HCI and NLP every year.


The details are below and also available at https://in2writing.glitch.me/

Writing assistants have become increasingly ubiquitous, and these tools will impact how we write. In our workshop, we, as an interdisciplinary group of people from HCI, NLP, and industry, will create a taxonomy of writing assistants and discuss their desirable features and potential consequences.

To attend this in-person event, we ask each participant to submit a 2-page position paper on their perspectives on writing assistants, potentially responding to one of the following prompts. Participants will be selected based on demonstrating in-depth thinking about some aspects of writing assistants. Although non-archival, selected participants can have their papers hosted on the workshop website.

Specific topics include, but not limited to:


  *   What are important dimensions to consider when designing intelligent writing assistants?

  *   How can we evaluate and compare writing assistants and their features in interactive settings?

  *   How do we design writing assistants for underrepresented languages, types of writers, and writing tasks?

  *   How can we make writing assistants more accessible and inclusive?

  *   What do you think are the biggest ethical concerns and limitations of writing assistants, especially when leveraging AI?

  *   How do we address legal issues with copyright and the psychological sense of ownership of writing assistants?

  *   How will writing assistants change the way we write?


Submissions can have multiple authors; upon submitting, you will be asked to list the number of authors intending to attend the in-person workshop.


Submissions should follow CHI publication formats<https://chi2023.acm.org/submission-guides/chi-publication-formats/>.


→ Papers should be submitted through OpenReview<https://openreview.net/group?id=acm.org/CHI/2023/Workshop/In2Writing>.
