A preprint study indicates that introducing AI suggestions significantly alters human response patterns. During experiments, the participants' "I don't know" response rate plummeted from 44% to 3%.
This suggests that AI assistance provides more than just information; it may also drastically reduce cognitive hesitation or defensive avoidance in uncertain situations.
