The paper examines how advisors should tailor recommendations when users consult personal AI assistants whose advice is predictable. It models the influence of personal AI through consultation probability and relative trust, finding that optimal counteraction and loss are hump‑shaped in these dimensions. The study also explores partial predictability, costly adjustments, richer information structures, and presents an online experiment showing participants weigh advisor, personal AI, and their own judgments differently.
arXiv:2607. 03025v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The use of Large Language Models (LLMs) across diverse areas of human activity-ranging from everyday tasks to safety-critical applications-aims to enhance decision-making effectiveness with minimal human feedback.
arXiv:2608. 12372v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI systems are increasingly employed as decision aids, decision delegates, or autonomous decision-makers.

arXiv:2502. 20502v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have yielded powerful computational models that, by learning from vast amounts of human-generated data, are increasingly posited as approximate models of human cognition.
arXiv:2607. 06656v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning models are often intended to augment rather than replace human decision makers, by providing information that is complementary to human judgement.
arXiv:2608. 05710v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: When an AI system is deployed, the individuals who use and or are evaluated by it form beliefs about how the system operates and use those beliefs to strategically present their preferences, behaviors, or attributes.
The study investigates how different AI support formats influence human decision-making across two tasks: abstract visual reasoning with RAVEN matrices and deductive logical reasoning with LSAT problems. Findings reveal that in visual reasoning, predictions alone and predicted probabilities best support accuracy and error recovery, while in logical reasoning, LLM explanations outperform other supports. The results suggest that effective human–AI collaboration requires task‑specific support strategies rather than a one‑size‑fits‑all approach.
arXiv:2510. 26518v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Human feedback is critical for aligning AI systems to human values.
arXiv:2508. 07617v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: AI has the potential to augment human decision making.
Knowing when to say "I don't know" is fundamental to human judgment, yet AI assistants offer a fluent answer to almost any question. In five experiments (N = 3,132; four preregistered, one direct replication), participants answered difficult questions and could always decline to respond.
