Abstract

In the field of Artificial Intelligence, there exists a much-needed contradiction between the efficient decision-making ability possessed by the technology and its acceptance by society, a contradiction that urgently requires a breakthrough at the theoretical level. This study proposes that art experiences can increase people's acceptance of AI suggestions by stimulating individuals' cognitive openness, providing a new perspective for resolving the difficulties encountered in the process of technology adoption. Through four experiments, this study found that art experience can increase individuals' cognitive openness, which makes individuals more inclined to adopt the suggestions given by AI, and this effect is moderated by the mode of perception, i.e., art experience in the natural state will promote the effect, while analytical mode of perception will weaken or even eliminate the effect. This study breaks the limitation of the traditional technology acceptance model that relies solely on instrumental rationality, reveals the synergistic operation mechanism between art and technology, and provides an important idea for the promotion of AI. This study lays a certain theoretical foundation for the realization of "technology-humanities" collaborative decision-making in the era of artificial intelligence, and also shows that future research needs to further explore the boundaries of the role of art experience.
