Anthropomorphism and AI Personality

The field of human-AI interaction is shifting towards a more intentional design of anthropomorphism in Large Language Models (LLMs), treating it as a concept of design that can be tuned to support user goals. This approach enables more intuitive and engaging human-AI interactions. Researchers are exploring the idea of simulating consistent personalities in AI chatbots through prompt engineering, which has shown promising results. Furthermore, the intersection of AI, blockchain technology, and human interaction is being examined through speculative design projects, reshaping our understanding of the digital future from AI's perspective. Noteworthy papers include: Humanizing Machines, which proposes a multi-level framework for designing anthropomorphism in LLMs. Can AI Have a Personality, which demonstrates the use of prompt engineering to simulate a consistent personality in a chatbot. Composable Life, which explores the complex symbiotic relationship between humans, AI, and blockchain technology through a speculative design project.
