ABSTRACT
In recent years, writing assistants have become increasingly sophisticated and ubiquitous, fueled by advances in artificial intelligence, particularly large language models. As new use cases and models emerge, we expect the adoption rate to accelerate. In this interdisciplinary workshop, we, as a diverse group of researchers and practitioners interested in intelligent and interactive writing assistants, will create a taxonomy of writing assistants and discuss their desirable features and potential consequences. We invite writers, educators, researchers, industry practitioners, students, and anyone interested in creating, using, and testing future writing assistant technologies to join the conversation.

Social Dynamics of AI Support in Creative Writing
CHI '23: Proceedings of the 2023 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsRecently, large language models have made huge advances in generating coherent, creative text. While much research focuses on how users can interact with language models, less work considers the social-technical gap that this technology poses. What are ...
Understanding User Experience with AI-Assisted Writing Service
Artificial Intelligence in HCIAbstractWith the recent development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, services such as automatic writing evaluation (AWE) and AI-assisted writing have been developed. AWE is often used in education to correct grammar. Unlike AWE, AI-assisted ...
