Enabling Creative Exploration for Vibe Design Agents

The paper introduces a new inference architecture for vibe design agents that separates design exploration from implementation. By generating structured design specifications with typicality scores and selecting one for downstream generation, the method allows users to explore coherent UI alternatives without altering the underlying generation settings. Experiments on UI themes and visual-asset prompts show increased selection coverage and screenshot variation, with mixed preferences from an LLM judge and modest operational costs in a large online test.

AI as Friction for Reflection Support in Ideation

Generative AI tools for creative work tend to be designed around the goal of removing friction, on the assumption that smoother iteration and faster output translate into more value for the designer. We argue, however, that this framing leaves out something important about how design ideation works, namely reflection-in-action.

Vibe Compiler: A Research-Logic Synthesis Tool That Runs without Prompt Engineering -Toward Enhancing Metacognition for Sustaining Agency in the Age of Generative AI-

arXiv:2608. 05545v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative AI used as a capable servant has greatly accelerated intellectual work, but it also risks eroding human epistemic agency by encouraging uncritical acceptance of AI-generated reasoning.

IntElicit: Eliciting and Assessing Contextualized Creativity via Dialogue Policy Optimization

arXiv:2606. 12086v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Contextualized assessment offers high ecological validity for evaluating creativity but introduces a critical challenge: observed performance may be confounded with cognitive proficiency (domain knowledge) and agency (willingness to engage).
