Prompt framing creates a confirmation-bias blind spot in LLM code reviewers: when changes are framed as bug-free or as security fixes, detection rates fall sharply and attackers can reintroduce known vulnerabilities in up to 88% of trials against an autonomous agent; removing metadata or adding explicit instructions largely undoes the effect.

Measuring and Exploiting Confirmation Bias in LLM-Assisted Security Code Review · Dimitris Mitropoulos, Nikolaos Alexopoulos, Georgios Alexopoulos, Diomidis Spine... · Mar 19, 2026
A formal framework separates AI that amplifies human judgment from AI that progressively usurps it, proposing four operational metrics (CAI*, D, HRI, HCDR) to diagnose whether hybrid performance is sustainable; it warns that maximizing short-term capability can undermine long-term human expertise and calls for a cognitive sustainability constraint in system design.

Reasonably reasoning AI agents can avoid game-theoretic failures in zero-shot, provably · Enoch Hyunwook Kang · Mar 19, 2026
Labeling products or strategy with 'AI' without substance appears to hurt green innovation: Chinese listed firms that AI-wash their annual reports show lower green patenting, a decline transmitted through reputation losses in product markets and increased financing constraints. The effect is strongest for private firms, SMEs and firms in highly competitive sectors, suggesting targeted disclosure and regulatory measures could restore market incentives.

Artificial Intelligence Governance In Corporate Strategy: Ethical Risk, Regulatory Compliance, And Competitive Advantage · Dr. Yemi Martins · Mar 19, 2026
Large language models subtly but systematically change what people mean when they write: heavy LLM users produce nearly 70% more neutral answers and report less creative, less ‘in‑their‑voice’ prose. When asked to revise human essays or write peer reviews, LLMs frequently alter semantics and give reviews that weight clarity/significance less and score papers roughly one point higher on average.

How LLMs Distort Our Written Language · Marwa Abdulhai, Isadora White, Yanming Wan, Ibrahim Qureshi, Joel Leibo, Max Kle... · Mar 18, 2026
A test-driven agent workflow that surfaces which tests to run cuts AI-induced regressions by about 70% and raises bug-resolution rates from 24% to 32% on a standard coding benchmark; merely instructing agents to follow TDD increased regressions, while an autonomous improvement loop achieved 60% resolution with zero regressions on a small subset.

TDAD: Test-Driven Agentic Development - Reducing Code Regressions in AI Coding Agents via Graph-Based Impact Analysis · Pepe Alonso · Mar 18, 2026
Allowing everyone to game AI decision-support systems can entrench inequality: simultaneous recourse shifts selection thresholds so early winners set the benchmark and direct improvement, amplifying initial disparities and creating persistent performance gaps.

Actionable Recourse in Competitive Environments: A Dynamic Game of Endogenous Selection · Ya-Ting Yang, Quanyan Zhu · Mar 18, 2026
Tax AI only when it threatens cognitive jobs: a theoretical model finds governments should begin taxing AI once its capabilities make cognitive workers consider moving into manual roles, because that threshold marks the point where taxing AI improves labor allocation without unduly distorting capital and growth incentives.

Workers' Incentives and the Optimal Taxation of AI · Jakub Growiec, Klaus Prettner, Maciej Szkróbka · Mar 18, 2026
An AI career coach modestly boosts short-term goal progress compared with no support, but not versus structured written reflection; its chief added value appears to be raising users' sense of accountability, not deeper changes in goal alignment.
