The lab (Dexterous Interaction Lab) is aware of the potential negative impact of AI systems (specifically, Generative AI, Large-Language Model) on the quality of research. As a disclaimer, our papers/website do not contain any AI-generated text, images, or videos (otherwise clearly stated). Our research is not guided by generative AI but by human minds who are deeply concerned about the future of computing systems.

For students

While doing research, here are a few guidelines that you should follow in this lab:

  1. Paper making (e.g., writing, figures & videos) should be intentional and we are responsible for our paper. Do not use AI systems to generate text, images, videos for the paper because they can produce unintentional results. However, you can (and should) use grammar checking systems that don’t affect your intentions and don’t share content.

  2. Refrain from using paper summarization systems because your research decision should not rely on potentially misunderstood or biased results. When doing a literature review, read the Abstract & Introduction of papers by yourself.

  3. Never put unpublished ideas/papers into online AI systems (i.e., do not share unpublished results).

  4. Coding assisted by AI systems is okay, only if you wrote the skeleton code by yourself first. A holistic understanding of your code is critical for debugging (e.g., excluding generative code).

That being said, research is not a lone process, and you can ask for assistance from real humans, e.g., your labmates, your advisor. That’s why we are here together!
