Transparency’s effectiveness in promoting data-sharing is amplified by, and dependent upon, user trust; fostering trust in AI may be a more vital prerequisite for data-sharing than implementing transparent designs.
Synthesis of experimental findings (N=240): transparency increased willingness only among users with pre-existing trust; null effect of transparency alone on actual sharing; authors conclude that trust moderates transparency effects and recommend focusing on trust-building.
high positive Understanding Data-Sharing with AI Systems: The Roles of Tra... recommendation/policy implication regarding trust vs transparency for promoting ...
Immediate sharing decisions were largely driven by intuitive System 1 processing rather than deliberative evaluation (System 2).
Interpretation of the pattern in experimental data (N=240): high, similar sharing rates across conditions despite differing stated willingness-to-share and measured privacy concerns; authors attribute this to dual-process dynamics (System 1 driving immediate behavior).
high positive Understanding Data-Sharing with AI Systems: The Roles of Tra... dominance of intuitive (System 1) processing in immediate sharing behavior
The positive effect of transparency on willingness to share was contingent on pre-existing user trust in AI, particularly for white-box systems.
Moderation analyses reported from the experiment (N=240): interaction between transparency (white-box vs black-box) and measured pre-existing trust in AI showed increased willingness-to-share only among users with higher trust, with the effect most pronounced for white-box systems.
