AI Risks and Human Cognitive Biases: A Cross-Disciplinary Study

Dr. Uwe Peters and Dr. Benjamin Chin-Yee, with backgrounds in neuroscience, psychology, philosophy, and hematology, are collaborating on research into the societal risks of artificial intelligence and the impact of human cognitive biases on science communication. Their work, which began during postdoctoral research at Cambridge University, focuses on exaggerations and overgeneralizations in human and LLM science communication. Their interdisciplinary approach offers fresh insights into understanding AI risks and improving the accuracy of science communication.
