Abstract

This workshop explores the influence of AI systems on human decision-making - algorithmic authority - and the broader concept of technology dominance, which includes both positive and negative impacts of AI reliance. Drawing from diverse fields such as Human-AI Interaction, Sociology, Epistemology, and Cognitive Science, the workshop will discuss theoretical foundations, empirical studies, and design implications of AI's role in shaping human judgment and behavior. The objectives are to examine in-depth the concepts of algorithmic authority and technology dominance, and identify metrics for their assessment. The workshop aims to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and produce practical design principles that help to counter risks associated to AI technology dominance and thus foster a responsible use of AI systems.
