From May 1 to 2, 2025, Seoul National University (SNU) and Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) held the annual SNU-CMU Collaboration Workshop in Yokohama, Japan. The event was organized in conjunction with the ACM CHI Conference, bringing together researchers and faculty members from both institutions for in-depth academic exchange and strategic dialogue.

The first day of the workshop took place at the Pacifico Yokohama Conference Center and Washington Hotel Sakuragicho. After a brief keynote session, the sessions showcased ongoing projects covering a variety of topics in the field of human-AI collaboration, including language models, decision-making frameworks, and collaborative technologies.

Each presentation reflected active research engagements within SNU, with speakers introducing technical developments and experimental findings that are currently underway in collaboration with or inspired by work at CMU. The presentations concluded with a wrap-up session, followed by a group dinner that allowed for informal discussions and networking among attendees.

On the second day, participants convened for a morning brunch, followed by a faculty discussion on the future direction of the SNU-CMU collaboration. The conversation focused on shared goals and possible agendas for ongoing cooperation in AI and human-computer interaction, including potential future initiatives.

The 2025 SNU-CMU Workshop served as a platform to reinforce mutual interests and reaffirm a commitment to long-term collaboration in research areas at the intersection of AI, learning, and human-centered design.
