Generative AI's influence on user trust and information seeking analyzed

A research paper submitted for the CSCW 2026 workshop explores how generative AI chatbots influence user trust through linguistic cues of expertise. The authors analyze how these AI "experts" might alter information-seeking practices and aim to foster a shared understanding within the CSCW community to address the risks associated with integrating generative AI into communication. The paper also discusses the importance of understanding user values and expectations in shaping these information-seeking procedures. AI

IMPACT Investigates how generative AI influences user trust and information-seeking behaviors, aiming to develop strategies to mitigate risks.
