When trying to provide users of black-box machine learning models with actionable recourse, we often wish to incorporate their personal preferences about the ease of modifying each... Real or Robotic? Assessing Whether LLMs Accurately Simulate Qualities of Human Responses in Dialogue Studying and building datasets for dialogue tasks is both expensive and time-consuming due to the need to recruit, train, and collect data from study participants. In response, much recent work has sought to use large language models (LLMs) to simulate both human-human and human-LLM interactions, as...
