Control panels to clarify user intent with Large Language Models
Typical user interfaces for Large Language Models present a blank prompt window that invites a natural language query by users, but offers little guidance. This paper proposes a visual control panel interface that would provide more cues to the semantics of prompt formation, enabling users to more easily express their intent. By emphasizing recognition over recall, control panels help users formulate more effective prompts that match their intent.
