Small-world Networks of Agents Brainstorm AI Risks to Support Ideation

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 21, 2026 · UTC

The ideation phase of participatory AI risk assessment often starts with a blank slate or a limited list of predefined risks, making it difficult to surface indirect or systemic harms. To address this limitation, we propose a three-stage ideation support tool. The tool complements participatory AI, rather than replacing it, and helps focus later engagement with affected communities. First, it dynamically discovers stakeholders depending on the given AI use and recursively expanding outward, allowing overlooked or indirect stakeholders to emerge. Second, it simulates these stakeholders with LLM
