{"pk":50085,"title":"Where Responsibility Lies in Human-AI decision making: The Role of Knowledge and Importance","subtitle":null,"abstract":"As AI and robots are used in society, the relationship between people and AI/robots is becoming increasingly important; when AI/robots assist people, there is a need to focus on where responsibility for the results of the assistance goes. This study focused on the importance of prior knowledge and topics about AI/robots to investigate who is held accountable when AI/robot assistance fails. The experiment was conducted in a three-factor mixed design, and the ANOVA analysis was based on data from 588 participants. Results showed that prior knowledge about AI/robots increased their pursuit of responsibility toward them and their developer/provider. Additionally, shared responsibility for the AI/robot developer or provider increased when the topic was very important to that person. This study helps to reduce the risk for AI/robots developers or providers when they assist people by clarifying who is responsible for failures that occur when AI/robots assist people in different situations.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[{"word":"Computer Science; Psychology; Human-computer interaction; Statistics"}],"section":"Abstracts with Poster Presentation (accepted as Abstracts)","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3zs454bq","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Takahiro","middle_name":"","last_name":"TSUMURA","name_suffix":"","institution":"Toyo University","department":""},{"first_name":"Seiji","middle_name":"","last_name":"Yamada","name_suffix":"","institution":"National Institute of Informatics","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"2025-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/50085/galley/38047/download/"}]}
