💣 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! #HumanAICollaboration #DecisionMaking #Advice #AdviceIntegration #MetaCognition

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)

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)

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)

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)
