• Abstract: In this paper, we investigate how individuals evaluate human and large langue models generated responses to popular questions when the source of the content is either concealed or disclosed. Through a controlled field experiment, participants were presented with a set of questions, each accompanied by a response generated by either a human or an AI. In a randomized design, half of the participants were informed of the response's origin while the other half remained unaware. Our findings indicate that, overall, participants tend to prefer AI-generated responses. However, when the AI origin is revealed, this preference diminishes significantly, suggesting that evaluative judgments are influenced by the disclosure of the response's provenance rather than solely by its quality. These results underscore a bias against AI-generated content, highlighting the societal challenge of improving the perception of AI work in contexts where quality assessments should be paramount.

  We propose a self-reference-based AI feedback framework that enables a 13B Llama2-Chat to provide high-quality feedback. Specifically, we allow the AI to first respond to the user's instructions, then generate criticism of other answers based on its own response as a reference. Finally, we determine which answer better fits human preferences according to the criticism.

  We examined the influence of source disclosure on people's evaluation of AI-generated health prevention messages. We found that source disclosure significantly impacted the evaluation of the messages but did not significantly alter message rankings. For those with moderate levels of negative attitudes towards AI, source disclosure decreased the preference for AI-generated messages.

  We propose a general framework for generating selective explanations by leveraging human input on a small sample. As a showcase, we use a decision-support task to explore selective explanations based on what the decision-maker would consider relevant to the decision task. Our experiments demonstrate the promise of selective explanations in reducing over-reliance on AI.

We show that confidence score can help calibrate people's trust in an AI model, but trust calibration alone is not sufficient to improve AI-assisted decision making.
