The Effect of Social Information on Reliance and Efficacy in AI-assisted Prediction by Alsobay, Mohammed

“…Through a pre-registered randomized human-subject experiment, I study the effect of two forms of social information-direct conversations and summarized peer decisions----on users' reliance and effectiveness in leveraging algorithmic advice across a series of decision-making tasks, and how t he availability of local model explanations and performance feedback moderates this effect. …”

Sexual selection predicts the persistence of populations within altered environments by Parrett, Jonathan M., Mann, Darren J., Chung, Arthur Y. C., Slade, Eleanor M., Knell, Robert J.

“…The effect of sexual selection on species persistence remains unclear. The cost of bearing ornaments or armaments might increase extinction risk, but sexual selection can also enhance the spread of beneficial alleles and increase the removal of deleterious alleles, potentially reducing extinction risk. …”
