Conversational models started to be able to access the web or backup their claims with sources (a.k.a. attribution). These chatbots are thus arguably information retrieval machines, competing against or even substituing traditional search engines. We would like to dedicate a space to these models but also to the more general field of generative information retrieval. We tentatively devide the field in two main topics: Grounded Answer Generation and Generative Document Retrieval. We also include generative recommendation, generative grounded summarization etc.
