From Passive Feeds to Guided Discovery: AI-Initiated Interaction for Vague Intent in Content Exploration

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2605.02902v1 Announce Type: cross Recommendation feeds work well when people are simply browsing, and search works well when they can formulate a query. Between these two cases is a common but poorly ed state: users feel that their feed has become repetitive, yet cannot clearly specify what they want instead. We refer to this state as vague intent. We present Red-Rec, an AI-ed exploration interface for this middle ground.
