Familiarity fosters psychological comfort, making anthropomorphism a critical factor in AI acceptance. And while trust encourages AI adoption, distrust is a separate construct with unique effects on user experience. Managing both is key to evaluating AI adoption in professional settings.</p></div> </div> <iframe data-cookieconsent="ignore" id="ytplayer" type="text/html" src='https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/K0pHbt_UHVY?si=ktaoAYS_nU5iKt3R' allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0"></iframe> </div> </div> </div></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="articles single-cta"> <div class="two-col-alt article-block"> </div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="articles multi-cta"> <div class="two-col-alt article-block"> <div class="row" data-equalizer=""> <div class="large-12 medium-8 small-12 columns"> <div class="cta shadowed " data-equalizer-watch=""> <div class="row" style="margin: inherit;"> <div class="medium-12 columns d-table top-cta"> <div class="text-wrap"> <h2 class="text-left"><a href='/publications/authors/submissions' >New Authoring Templates for ACM Publications</a></h2> <div class="dek"> <p>ACM has transitioned to new <a href="/publications/authors/submissions" target="_blank">authoring templates</a>.
