Abstract
Authorship information has been shown to influence emotional response in different situation, regarding fame, positive and negative author information and also the influence of authorship information when AI is an author compared to human. It leads to less emotional response when AI is mentioned. Other studies has shown that this can be moderate by bias against AI, in one particular case, other studies show no effect or effects implying no effect. In the current study we investigate whether authorship information has an effect on emotional response and if this is moderated by an AI bias. We conducted a between subject study (N = 80), where we manipulated authorship information (fully AI, hybrid, fully human). AI Bias was measured, the manipulation was done, a 90 second snippet of our AI song (with human text) was played and the emotional response was measured. The results show that the authorship information differs significantly for the fully AI and hybrid condition in comparison to the fully human condition, and supports our hypothesis. We found no moderation effect of the AI bias on the relationship of authorship information and emotional response. This shows that the authorship information manipulation influences emotional response also in the hybrid condition and for unknown AI(human text) pop music and in that case no AI bias moderation effects are shown.
