The setup of experiment 3
Results of experiment 3: "Biased humans like biased advice" (not human advice per se)
Summary (pasted from slide):
• Experts gaining expertise by experience often give biased advice: They both choose and recommend others to choose options better most of the time
• People prefer advisors that recommend options better most of the time
• Biased humans advisors are preferred over unbiased algorithmic advisors
• But it is simple to design even more biased algorithmic advisors that accommodate human biases, and are liked more than human advisors
Ori Plonsky et al. found people liked biased advice in #expectedValue experiments.
Contrary to #algorithmAversion, people liked advice that aligned with their #biases (even if it came from an algorithm).
