This article argues that squirrel ecology offers a sharp comparative case because arboreal locomotion, scatter-hoarding, and audience-sensitive caching couple all three demands in one organism.
大多数人认为AI研究应专注于人类认知模型或计算机科学原理，但作者认为松鼠生态学提供了AI设计的最佳参考模型，这种将动物行为学与AI架构直接联系的观点在AI研究领域非常规且具有挑战性。
We introduce a minimal hierarchical partially observed control model with latent dynamics, structured episodic memory, observer-belief state, option-level actions, and delayed verifier signals.
大多数AI系统设计倾向于使用完全可观测的模型，并假设系统状态是已知的。但作者提出了一个部分可观测的层级控制模型，包含潜在动态、结构化情景记忆、观察者信念状态、选项级行动和延迟验证器信号。这一观点挑战了传统AI系统设计的完全可观测性假设，认为部分可观测性更接近现实世界的复杂性。
95% of organizations are getting zero return on AI deployed, with most failures found due to 'brittle workflows.'
尽管AI投资激增，但绝大多数企业未能获得任何回报，这与主流认知中AI能显著提升效率的观点相悖。这一发现表明，AI实施失败的主要原因不是技术本身，而是工作流程设计不当，暗示企业需要重新思考如何将AI整合到现有工作流程中，而非简单叠加技术。
You have to have people that have the ability to rethink the workflow at a scale that AI can execute, versus at a scale that humans can execute.
大多数人认为AI只需适应现有工作流程即可，但作者强调企业需要重新设计工作流程以适应AI的能力范围。这一观点挑战了传统的技术实施思维，暗示成功AI应用需要根本性的流程重构，而非简单的技术叠加。
You don't need a separate agent API. You need to look at every `input()` call, every CWD assumption, every pretty-printed-only output, and ask: what if the user on the other end is a process, not a person?
大多数人认为需要为AI代理创建专门的API或接口，但作者提出反直觉的观点：不需要单独的代理API，而应该重新设计现有的CLI工具，使其同时支持人类和代理。这种统一的方法更加高效，避免了维护两套接口的复杂性。
Implicit state is the Enemy
大多数开发者认为当前工作目录（CWD）和环境变量等隐式状态是理所当然的，是提高开发效率的捷径。但作者认为这些隐式状态是敌人，因为它们会给AI代理带来困难。通过使所有状态显式化，不仅解决了代理的问题，也使工具对人类更可预测和可脚本化。
The funny part is that none of this made the CLI worse for humans. The TUI picker still works and looks fancy, progress spinners still spin, confirmation dialogs still confirm. We just added a second door.
大多数人认为增加对AI代理的支持会使工具变得复杂，降低人类用户体验。但作者认为，为AI代理添加的功能实际上没有损害人类用户体验，反而通过增加'第二扇门'（非交互式接口）同时改善了两种用户群体的体验。
Every prompt is a flag in disguise
大多数开发者认为交互式提示是CLI工具的良好用户体验设计，但作者提出反直觉的观点：每个交互式提示都应该有对应的标志（flag）替代方案。这是因为AI代理无法处理交互式输入，而将所有提示转换为标志不仅支持代理，还使工具更加可编程和可测试。
Designing for agents forced us to build better tools for everyone.
大多数人认为为AI代理设计工具会使其对人类用户更加复杂或难以使用，但作者认为为AI代理设计工具实际上改善了所有用户的体验。因为代理的约束（如需要明确的参数、避免隐式状态）恰好使工具更加模块化、可脚本化和可测试，这对人类开发者同样有益。
Designing for agents forced us to build better tools for everyone.
大多数人认为设计AI代理工具会专门针对机器，可能会牺牲人类用户体验。但作者认为，为AI代理设计工具反而能提升所有用户的体验，因为代理带来的约束条件（如明确的状态管理、可预测的接口）同样让工具对人类开发者更加友好和可脚本化。
I feel confident, though, that the slippery feeling people associate with AI products is a solvable problem, and the solution looks more like thoughtful interface design than better models. The models will keep improving on their own. The harder work is building the structure around them so that their output feels reliable, legible, and trustworthy.
大多数人认为AI产品的可靠性将随着模型技术的进步而提高，但作者认为真正的挑战在于围绕模型构建结构和界面，而非模型本身。这一观点挑战了AI领域的技术决定论思维，强调了设计的重要性。
When you delegate an issue to an agent in Linear, the delegation is visible. There's a person who set the agent loose within that system, and that person is accountable for the outcome. You design the environment well, you let the agent run, and you own what it produces.
大多数人认为AI代理的行为应由代理本身或实时监控系统负责，但作者提出责任在于最初设置代理的人。这一观点将问责制从实时交互转向了初始授权，挑战了AI责任归属的主流认知。
The more important work happens before the agent even starts. An agent operating inside a well-designed system already has the context and constraints it needs to do good work. In Linear, that means project plans, issue backlogs, code, and documentation. These all shape what the agent does and how it does it.
大多数人认为AI系统的责任在于实时监控和干预，但作者认为真正的责任在于事前的系统设计和环境构建。这一观点将问责制从实时交互转向了系统设计阶段，挑战了传统的AI治理思维。
The first interface that spread for AI tools was the chat window. That makes sense. When you don't know what something can do, the safest approach is to let people ask. A conversation feels familiar, it stretches across many situations, and it doesn't force a specific structure up front.
大多数人认为聊天界面是AI交互的理想形式，因为它直观且灵活，但作者暗示这只是探索阶段的工具，而非严肃工作的解决方案。这一观点挑战了当前AI工具设计中聊天界面占主导地位的趋势。
Non-deterministic software breaks the contract. When outcomes can vary, sometimes wildly, based on what someone types into the same chat window, designing for reliability becomes genuinely harder. This slippery feeling is the design problem of this era, and it almost always traces back to the interface rather than the language model—which means it belongs to designers, not researchers.
大多数人认为AI的不确定性是一个技术问题，需要更好的模型来解决，但作者认为这是一个设计问题，属于设计师而非研究人员的责任。这一观点挑战了AI领域的主流认知，即技术进步是解决AI不可靠性的主要途径。
Our work demonstrates that designs informed by Structure-Mapping Theory can support users in navigating, making use of, and engaging with variation present in information. In this sense, AbstractExplorer enables dialectical activities that users may otherwise have found to be too tedious or difficult to engage with.

Together, the vertical and horizontal juxtapositions are designed to help users identify both high-level commonalities and nuanced variations across structurally similar sentences.

Dialectical activities cannot be done on a user's behalf by AI; with variation affordances, AI is supporting the user's engagement with the data themselves.

In this work, we introduce a new paradigm for exploring a large corpus of small documents by identifying roles at the phrasal and sentence levels, then slice on, reify, group, and/or align the text itself on those roles, with sentences left intact.

These observations underscored the need for an improved UI design for authoring custom aspects, especially for those who are less familiar with the research corpus.

Future work could explore more seamless ways of preserving context, such as allowing users to navigate through every sentence of an abstract directly within the Cross-Sentence Relationship pane, fostering a more cohesive understanding of the content.

Supporting a new corpus would require defining new corpus-appropriate predefined aspects and chunk role labels. Other components would likely be able to remain unchanged.

We posit that our approach can generalize to other domains such as journalism, code synthesis, and social media analytics where visual alignment of text can enable meaningful comparisons of underlying patterns to identify relational clarity.

Specifically, they underscore the need for co-adaptive systems that can evolve along with users' mental models and definitions of labels.

This requires the development of interfaces and visualizations that demystify the generated data, allowing systematic variation and coverage across the concept space.

By visualizing these consistent pattern rules, users may be better understanding the behavior of the model through inference projection [26].

By incorporating theories such as Structural Alignment Theory and Variation Theory, it aims to support the learning of both the human and the model.

Such studies could determine whether these non-alignable comparisons enhance user performance and elicit deeper insights in human-AI collaborative systems.

Some good pointers to [[Brian Eno c]] work and thinking, to follow up.
Also good anecdote from one of those links on Rem Koolhaas notion of n:: premature sheen Making things look nice early takes away from thinking about other points of quality. Jeremy applies it to AI too, the premature sheen generate awe, but not quality output.

AI Tools for each phase of analysis
Examples include press releases, short reports, and analysis plans — documents that were reported as realistic for the type of writing these professionals engaged in as part of their work.
Have in mind the genres tested.
Looking from a perspective of "how might we use such tools in UX" we're better served by looking at documents that UX generates through the lens of identifying parallels to the study's findings for business documents.
To use AI to generate drafts, we'll want to look at AI tools built into design tools UXers use to create drafts. Those tools are under development but still developing.
rather than to comprehend them
Thinking about instructional design here - how verbs like understand and appreciate are to be avoided in learning outcomes because they are difficult to measure - and wondering if this isn't an outcome.
