Human–AI collaboration has attracted interest from both scholars and practitioners. However, the relationships in human–AI teamwork have not been fully investigated. This study aims to research the influencing factors of trust in AI teammates and the intention to cooperate with AI teammates. We conducted an empirical study by developing a research model of human–AI collaboration. The model presents the influencing mechanisms of interactive characteristics (i.e., perceived anthropomorphism, perceived rapport, and perceived enjoyment), environmental characteristics (i.e., peer influence and facilitating conditions), and personal characteristics (i.e., self-efficacy) on trust in teammates and cooperative intention. A total of 423 valid surveys were collected to test the research model and hypothesized relationships. The results show that perceived rapport, perceived enjoyment, peer influence, facilitating conditions, and self-efficacy positively affect trust in AI teammates. Moreover, self-efficacy and trust positively relate to the intention to cooperate with AI teammates. This study contributes to the teamwork and human–AI collaboration literature by investigating different antecedents of the trust relationship and cooperative intention.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
