Anti-AI Bias

A cognitive bias that systematically undervalues, dismisses, or distorts AI-generated or AI-assisted outputs based on the mere fact that they come from an AI, rather than on their actual quality or content. People with anti-AI bias may reject a correct AI diagnosis, a well‑written AI text, or a novel AI insight simply because “a machine did it.” This bias is akin to earlier biases against calculators or computers. It hinders AI adoption and ignores demonstrable performance. Often rooted in anthropocentrism and fear of replacement.

Anti-AI Bias Example: “He rejected the AI’s legal brief despite it being more thorough than his own—anti‑AI bias, assuming that human work is inherently superior regardless of evidence.”
