A new study published in Science Magazine has found that evidence-based dialogues with AI chatbots, specifically GPT-4 Turbo, can significantly reduce belief in conspiracy theories. The research shows that these dialogues can decrease conspiracy beliefs by approximately 20%, with the effect lasting for at least two months. The Science study highlights that AI is more effective than humans in changing entrenched beliefs, as tailored AI responses can rebut specific evidence presented by conspiracy theorists. This finding suggests that generative AI could be a valuable tool in addressing misinformation and conspiracy theories at scale.
