As AI is progressively incorporated into several spheres of society. This rapid growth has also brought a lot of challenges such as discriminating or skewed results and a lack of accountability. To address these challenges, there is a growing interest in Human-AI teams where AI-assisted decision-making includes humans in the loop. This approach...

AI systems are increasingly being used to support human decision making. It is important that AI advice is followed appropriately. However, according to existing literature, users typically under-rely or over-rely on AI systems, and this leads to sub-optimal team performance. In this context, we investigate the role of stated system accuracy...

Powerful predictive AI systems have demonstrated great potential in augmenting human decision-making. Recent empirical work has argued that the vision for optimal human-AI collaboration requires ‘appropriate reliance’ of humans on AI systems. However, accurately estimating the trustworthiness of AI advice at the instance level is quite...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly helping people with all kinds of tasks, due to its promising capabilities. In some tasks, an AI system by itself will take over tasks, but in other tasks, an AI system making decisions on its own would be undesired due to ethical and legal reasons. In those cases, AI can still be of help by forming...
