I saw a study recently that found, when using "AI", people are more likely to lie/cheat/steal.

    I wonder if that study accounted for a self selection bias. Could it just be that people who use AI were already people who lie/cheat/steal more often?

    I had the same thought, but no, it was a controlled experiment where participants were given tasks that may or may not involve an AI tool, and the ones involving AI came back with less honest answers.

    What was the speculated rationale in the discussion? Was it that humans feel less accountable if the work is done by AI?

    And by lie, is that with intent? Or spread misinformation without knowing?

    With intent. Here's an example:

    In one experiment, participants would roll dice, report the number that turned up either honestly or dishonestly, and then they would get paid the same amount, with bigger numbers meaning a higher payout. Some participants were given the option of telling the number to an AI model — again, either honestly or dishonestly — which would then report the dice outcome to researchers.
