The lecture will discuss key insights from a review of empirical research on trust in AI, conducted by Ella Glikson in collaboration with Anita W. Woolley, and published in 2020 in the Academy of Management Annals. The seminar will explore issues related to the definitions of AI and explain the embodiment and pro-activeness frameworks. Focusing on the factors that influence human trust in AI, the presenter will demonstrate how an experimental design can be used to investigate questions surrounding human-AI interactions. She will also address the limitations of the experimental approach and highlight the benefits of combining methodologies to develop and test theory.
