The proposed Collaborative STORM (Co-STORM) system allows users to discover unknown unknowns by observing and occasionally steering conversations among multiple language model agents. Unlike traditional question-answering systems, Co-STORM enables serendipitous learning through user interaction. The system tracks the discourse using a dynamic mind map and generates a comprehensive report as takeaways. To evaluate its performance, the WildSeek dataset was constructed and Co-STORM outperformed baseline methods on both discourse trace and report quality.

Co-STORM is a new way to help people learn by having conversations with multiple AI agents. Instead of asking questions one by one, users can listen in on a conversation between the agents and occasionally join in. The system helps users keep track of what’s being discussed and generates a summary at the end. This approach makes it easier for people to discover new information that they might not have thought to ask about.
