Deliberative Communication for Human-Agent Interaction: A Position Paper

Year: 2024

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: In this position paper, we argue for the need for deliberation in communication for artificial agents that perform tasks together with humans. Existing works use a set of terms and concepts with different meanings, resulting in ambiguity which does not allow for a general framework. As an initial step towards such a framework, we propose the notion of deliberative communication, clarify the necessary concepts and terminology, highlight the capabilities required in using deliberation for agents that communicate with human users, and discuss the main challenges.
