arXiv:2604.21827v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In accomplishing complex tasks, human cognition typically progresses from abstract to concrete (e.g., from brainstorming ideas to writing an essay). With the advent of highly capable AI assistants, people now offload various parts of their task to the system. However, instruction-tuned AI systems, even when designed to infer implicit intent, lack an understanding of humans' cognitive processes. When a user approaches AI while their goals and intentions are abstract, AI systems often short circuit their cognitive process through which those goals would be refined by jumping toward a final output (e.g., writing the essay entirely). Doing so takes away the user's agency in achieving the task: they may need to spend more time revising or, worse, settle on a suboptimal outcome. We call these failures Fantasia interactions after the famous Disney scene. We argue that Fantasia interactions demand a rethinking of alignment research, where AI systems optimize how cognitive responsibility is allocated within an interaction. We highlight gaps in state-of-the-art alignment methods, and outline a research agenda for training and evaluating models to achieve this vision.
