Abstract
In this paper, we suggest that we ought to develop humane interfaces to
computation. We further suggest that this can be accomplished by constructing
dialogical interfaces, that such interfaces provide models of interaction which
are powerful enough to satisfy our humane ends. We present explication toward
the nature of dialogue and dialogical models, and relate such models to
the problem of humane interaction. We then examine what is necessary for
the construction of dialogical models via insufficiencies of specific models of
meaning representation. We offer steps along the way toward a robust dialogical
model, and conclude with a discussion of what steps remain to be taken.
