Human-Ai-Interaction

This is not about dance. This is a field note on evaluating non-verbal, pre-linguistic social understanding in AI systems. Why the dance floor can function as an evaluation surface for AI understanding 1｜Dance is rhythmic negotiation, not instruction-following In a dance floor setting, interaction is not driven by explicit commands. Coordination emerges through shared rhythm, timing, and fluctuating tension. This interaction mode reflects a class of problems future AGI systems must handle: non-verbal, non-logical, rhythm-driven coordination under uncertainty. ...

This field note was written in early 2023, shortly after ChatGPT became widely accessible, at a time when prompt-based interaction was still being actively discovered rather than standardized. Prompt engineering has quickly become a widely discussed topic. Alongside collections of reproducible prompts—tested, shared, and refined by communities—there has also been an effort to provide theoretical guidance for users without a computer science background. It has become increasingly clear that prompting is not a peripheral skill, but a central operational capability in human–AI interaction. ...
