Experts defer to AI in decision-making, Anthropic study finds

Experts using AI overwhelmingly defer to the technology when making decisions, research by Claude creator Anthropic suggests. In a research paper published on Tuesday, Anthropic said it asked 50 professional analysts to advise a fictional farming cooperative to determine whether experts make decisions themselves when using AI. Anthropic said the analysts were tasked with assessing whether a fictitious advisory program for the co-op’s members was working effectively and should be expanded. Participants were asked to make four choices between two defensible options before making a final policy recommendation.
