Researchers at Johns Hopkins University systematically reviewed 105 empirical studies on AI-assisted decision-making to develop a taxonomy of human-AI interaction patterns. The resulting seven-pattern classification reveals that existing human-AI collaboration largely employs simplistic assistance models, indicating a need for more reciprocal and dynamic engagement.

Key insights

  • Current human-AI collaboration in decision support is predominantly rudimentary, characterized by 'AI-first' and 'AI-follow' assistance rather than truly interactive or reciprocal engagement.
  • The prevalence of simplistic interaction patterns, like AI-first assistance, can introduce cognitive biases such as anchoring and confirmation bias in human decision-making.
  • The proposed taxonomy offers a structured language for researchers and designers to deliberately choose or combine interaction patterns, fostering improved communication, trustworthiness, and user agency.
