    "title": "\"Can you tell I used ChatGPT?\" How Perceived AI-Mediation Affects Workplace Email Persuasiveness— A Bayesian Approach",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Large Language Models like ChatGPT are becoming every-day writing partners in the workplace. This study asked: how does simply knowing an email was \"edited by ChatGPT\" affect its persuasiveness and the perceived cred-ibility of the sender? We collected data from 308 profes-sionals using experimental vignettes that simulated realis-tic workplace emails. Some emails were described as en-tirely human-written, while others were labeled as AI-edited, with variations in the sender's reliability (who is sending the message) and strength of the argument (how well the content is constructed). A Bayesian Model of Ar-gumentation provided normative predictions for how reli-ability and argument quality should influence persuasion. We found that when an email was labeled as \"edited by ChatGPT,\" receivers saw it as less persuasive overall. However, AI-mediation did not diminish the relative in-fluence of source reliability and argument quality. In other words, while the AI-edited label reduced overall persua-siveness, it didn't change how recipients inherently evalu-ated credibility. They still adjusted their beliefs primarily based on who sent the message and how strong the argu-ment was. To our knowledge, this is the first study to ap-ply a Bayesian framework to understanding how people process AI-mediated communication.",
