About
Young-Ho Bae investigates the cognitive and linguistic foundations of human-agent interaction, with a focus on how language, culture, and bilingualism shape social cooperation with artificial agents. His work bridges psycholinguistics and human-computer interaction, exploring how cross-cultural language differences and cognitive shifts in bilingual speakers influence speech and social cognition during cooperative tasks. Bae’s most-cited paper (13 citations) examines how language-driven cognitive frameworks affect human-agent collaboration in game environments, while his 2025 study introduces the concept of “anticipatory speech”—artificial agents that speculate about future possibilities—as a mechanism to enhance social cohesion and cooperation. This work, grounded in human communication patterns, represents a novel contribution to designing more natural and socially intelligent agents. Bae also investigates linguistic relativity in bilingual speakers, showing how switching languages can shift cognitive paradigms during interactions with artificial agents. His research sits at the intersection of cognitive science, linguistics, and AI, offering insights into how agents can better understand and mirror human social cognition. With a growing citation record, Bae is establishing himself as a thoughtful voice in the design of culturally and cognitively aware artificial agents.
