Can All Humans Benefit from AI Assistance? Algorithm Aversion and Overconfidence

Meng Juanjuan

Introduction：To what extent can AI assistance improve human decision comparing to human or AI alone? It is a crucial question that has profound policy implications.

However, subjects demonstrate algorithm aversion in the form of AI information underweighting, which is significantly related to overconfidence. AI assistance narrows the performance gap among subjects; surprisingly, due to the underweighting bias some originally good-performers suffer from it.
