💣 PAPER OUT! 💣

We live in a world full of (AI) advice. But having access to good advice does not automatically mean making better decisions.

In many contexts, the final call is still human!

Is simply building more advanced AI enough? No! Optimizing human-AI collaboration is key to making the best of #AI in clinical #DecisionMaking.

Would you trust a robot, if you could influence its decisions? @JoshuaZonca @alefreedot Anna Folsø @ERC_Research @CONTACT_unit https://t.co/nvXd5GKL95

[Joshua Zonca @JoshuaZonca]

Our findings stress the importance of a bidirectional view of HRI, which does not focus exclusively on robots’ appearance and capabilities but also on the relational dynamics intervening during interaction. (4/4)

[Joshua Zonca @JoshuaZonca]

Very happy to share our new work published in @iScience_CP with @alefreedot & Anna Folso:

“The role of reciprocity in human-robot social influence”

https://t.co/fEl6BEdQZ5

@CONTACT_unit @IITalk #wHISPER_ERC #ERC (1/4)

[Joshua Zonca @JoshuaZonca]

Highlights of results:
• If a social robot is susceptible to our advice, we lose confidence in it
• However, robot’s susceptibility does not deteriorate social influence
• Susceptible robots can promote reciprocity but also hinder social learning

(3/4)

[Joshua Zonca @JoshuaZonca]

Our findings suggest that the informational context can bias the process of selection of social learning strategies, providing novel insights for theoretical models of social learning, cultural evolution and strategic interaction. (6/6)

[Joshua Zonca @JoshuaZonca]

New paper out on @SciReports with Alexander Vostroknutov, Giorgio Coricelli and Luca Polonio!

"Timing of social feedback shapes observational learning in strategic interaction".

[Joshua Zonca @JoshuaZonca]

Conversely, less sophisticated players did not increase their level of sophistication and did not transfer the acquired knowledge to novel contexts, regardless of the type of social feedback. (5/6)

[Joshua Zonca @JoshuaZonca]

In our paper, we investigate whether children's conformity to adults is shaped by reciprocity.
