Who Benefits from AI? Self-Selection, Skill Gap, and the Hidden Costs of AI Feedback

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2409.18660v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Feedback from artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly easy to access and research has already established that people learn from it. But individuals choose when and how to seek such feedback, and engaged and motivated individuals may seek it more, creating an illusion of effectiveness that masks self-selection. We investigate how the endogenous choice to seek AI feedback shapes both individual learning and collective outcomes.
