CoAuthor: Designing a Human-AI Collaborative Writing Dataset for Exploring Language Model Capabilities

Open access
Lee, Mina, Liang, Percy, Yang, Qian·2022·CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems

Abstract

Large language models (LMs) offer unprecedented language generation capabilities and exciting opportunities for interaction design. However, their highly context-dependent capabilities are difficult to grasp and are often subjectively interpreted. In this paper, we argue that by curating and analyzing large interaction datasets, the HCI community can foster more incisive examinations of LMs’ generative capabilities. Exemplifying this approach, we present CoAuthor, a dataset designed for revealing GPT-3’s capabilities in assisting creative and argumentative writing. CoAuthor captures rich interactions between 63 writers and four instances of GPT-3 across 1445 writing sessions. We demonstrate that CoAuthor can address questions about GPT-3’s language, ideation, and collaboration capabilities, and reveal its contribution as a writing “collaborator” under various definitions of good collaboration. Finally, we discuss how this work may facilitate a more principled discussion around LMs’ promises and pitfalls in relation to interaction design. The dataset and an interface for replaying the writing sessions are publicly available at https://coauthor.stanford.edu.

    A language model's performance varies substantially with preceding text and decoding parameters.

    “Any LM's performance fuctuates signifcantly depending on the preceding text [38], decoding parameters [27], among other factors.”

      Citation [38] is attached to the preceding-text part of the sentence, not decoding parameters, which are attributed to [27]. The survey’s “Prompt Engineering” section (p. 11) says prompts are designed to improve downstream performance, supporting the point that preceding text can matter. It does not establish that performance fluctuates significantly for any language model. (LLM, conf=0.78)

      Section E.6 (page not provided) reports more Grammar and Usage error annotations for human-authored text than for the best GPT-3 configuration tested. But the claim presents those annotations as a general finding about actual writing errors. The same section cautions that many human-text annotations were artifacts of the text format and estimates that human-authored paragraphs had far fewer legitimate issues overall. (LLM, conf=0.85)

    Most previous log-analysis work used restricted interaction settings and adapted models or interfaces for specific tasks, making generalization to other tasks and configurations difficult.

    “However, most previous work considered restricted interaction settings (e.g.strict turn-taking [15]) and adapted LMs and interfaces (e.g.fnd-tuned GPT-2 [58]) on specifc tasks (e.g.email writing [8]), thereby making it hard to generalize to other tasks and confgurations of the same model.”

      The Background (p. 2) says task-level datasets have traditionally been used to measure progress in NLP, supporting the general point about datasets and evaluation. But Caveats and Objections (p. 8) says Dynabench currently focuses on classification and span extraction, while evaluating generative tasks requires further research. The paper therefore does not establish the claim specifically about evaluating language models’ generative capabilities. (LLM, conf=0.88)

The claim that they did so without defining which interactions were good is therefore not supported. (LLM, conf=0.88)

  • In the General context, systems commonly provided suggestions for revisions which could be integrated directly into the writing area, aiding efficiency and idea exploration in the text.

    “Systems commonly provided suggestions for revisions which could be integrated directly into the writing area [14,18,75], aiding efficiency and idea exploration in the text.”

    From Co-Writing with AI, on Human Terms: Aligning Research with User Demands Across the Writing Process (2025) · cites this paper as [75]

    Section 4.2.3 says accepted suggestions were automatically appended to the current text, and sections 5.1.2 and 5.2.1 discuss idea generation and potential productivity benefits. The paper describes suggestions for continuing writing, not specifically revisions to existing text, and its account of CoAuthor does not establish that systems commonly use this design.

  • The point of contact between the writer and the model shapes how much of the writing remains the writer's own.

    “Studies of interactive writing systems note that the point of contact between the writer and the model (when suggestions appear, what the writer must do to take them, etc.) shapes how much of the writing remains the writer's own (Lee et al., 2022).”

    From Think Before You Accept: Can Written Justification Reduce Uncritical Uptake of AI Writing Suggestions? (2026) · cites this paper as Lee et al., 2022

    Section 4.2.2 describes when suggestions appear and how writers accept them. Section 5.2.2 reports a correlation between the writer-authored fraction of the final text and writers’ feelings of ownership. The paper does not show that changing those interface choices shapes the writer-authored fraction; its observation about receiving more suggestions is tentative. (LLM, conf=0.82)

  • Prior research has found that people's perceptions of AI authorship in co-creation are nuanced and depend on the type of contribution made by the AI, how much each party contributed, and who led the co-creative effort.

    From Which Contributions Deserve Credit? Perceptions of Attribution in Human-AI Co-Creation (2025) · cites this paper as [44]

    Section 5.2.2 reports a correlation between writers’ perceived ownership of GPT-3-assisted texts and the fraction of the text they wrote, supporting the claim that relative contributions matter.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Claims read by deepseek-v4.1-flash under definition version 3 (extract-v3) on 2026-09-30.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
