arXiv:2606. 09848v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As generative and agentic AI becomes embedded in everyday products, practitioners face a persistent challenge: how to design human-AI coordination -- the ongoing mutual adjustment between users and AI systems as mediate through interfaces-that supports usability, trust, and safety.

Abstract: As humans delegate more tasks and decisions to artificial intelligence (AI), we risk losing control of our individual and collective futures....

The paper surveys 61 studies on mental‑health AI and identifies a misalignment in how trust is evaluated across disciplines. It proposes a three‑layer framework—human‑oriented, interaction‑oriented, and AI‑oriented trust—and maps stakeholder perspectives onto these layers. The authors argue that future research should focus on calibrating human trust to actual interaction and AI trustworthiness rather than merely maximizing perceived trust.

The paper introduces Synthetic Linguistic Agency (SLA), a framework that defines linguistic agency in terms of embodiment, participation, and precariousness. It presents two studies: one that operationalizes SLA criteria and identifies existing systems, and another that builds an Embodied Mortal Agent (EMA) using mortality‑grounded reinforcement learning. Experiments show the EMA’s linguistic choices depend on its body and social history, influence partner behavior, and adapt over time, demonstrating SLA in an artificial agent.

arXiv:2606. 23991v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: What is an agent?
By Eric Xing, Mingkai Deng, Jinyu Hou
The paper reviews how large language models have evolved into agents that can influence external environments through tool use, interface operation, delegation, state retention, virtual world inhabitation, and robotic control. It critiques the narrative of a single march toward autonomy, distinguishing model competence from system integration, persistence, and safe authority. The authors find that action-interface expansion is well documented, while robust completion, recovery, authorization, and independent verification remain less proven, and they propose a framework of justified delegation to guide future research.

Cognitive Digital Twins (CDTs) are dynamic computational models that represent an individual’s cognition, continuously updated with behavioral, contextual, or physiological data to predict or simulate that person’s mental processes or act as a proxy for communication and decision‑making. The paper defines CDTs, distinguishes them from related systems, and introduces a 5A governance framework—authority, autonomy, access & control, accountability, and availability—to address their unique risks. It identifies specific threats such as misrepresentation, epistemic authority shifts, shadow twins, and proxy‑power asymmetries, and proposes governance requirements for high‑risk CDTs, including stronger consent, purpose limitation, validity, traceability, contestation, independent review, and model retirement.

arXiv:2607. 24761v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Research on human-AI interaction has long framed verification of system outputs as a trust-contingent behavior that better-calibrated trust should reduce.
