Abstract
We focus on some preliminary, theoretical and practical, requirements for an agent-based system for cognitive interaction with older people. We describe in some detail a preliminary study aimed at assessing the acceptability of interaction of cognitively impaired elders with an artificial companion by studying their reactive behaviour during a simple experimental session. First results show that affective aspects of interaction with an artificial companion are not affected by negative feelings towards technology, but that positive attitudes are required in order to achieve awareness of its usefulness for a cognitive interaction. We stress the convenience of considering acceptance as a multifaceted attitude, to develop a method for the development of a working cognitive interaction system. The agent should build its user model - including relevant knowledge, expectations, and goals - by interactive learning, and operate jointly with a situation awareness engine.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
