Abstract The tendency of humans to shy away from using algorithms—even when algorithms observably outperform their human counterpart—has been referred as algorithm aversion. We conduct an experiment with young adults test for aversion in financial decision making. Participants acting investors can tie incentives either a fund manager or investment algorithm. find no sign aversion: participants ...

We present a family of quantumly-enhanced protocols to achieve unconditionally secure delegated classical computation where the client and the server have both their classical and quantum computing capacity limited. We prove the same task cannot be achieved using only classical protocols. This extends the work of Anders and Browne on the computational power of correlations to a security setting...

Human kin cooperation is universal, leading researchers to label humans as "cooperative breeders." Despite widespread interest in human cooperation, there has been no systematic study of how household economic decision making occurs. We document age and sex profiles of task delegation by parents to children ages 4-18 among Bolivian forager-horticulturalists. We test for sex differences in the p...
