Selected Results¶

Result	Title	URL	Rationale
S01-R01	CSET AI Safety and Automation Bias	https://cset.georgetown.edu/publication/ai-safety-and-automation-bias/	Title bridges AI safety + automation bias; cross-referenced from Q001
S01-R02	Sycophancy in LLMs: Causes and Mitigations	https://arxiv.org/html/2411.15287v1	Counterexample: treats sycophancy as purely technical with no human factors bridge

Rejected Results¶

Result	Title	URL	Rationale
S01-R03	Various automation bias and sycophancy articles (8 results)	Various	Included: Springer human-AI collaboration review, ISQ national security study, Wikipedia, EIMT explainer, PMC overtrust study, Rainbird blog, Medium post, AI hype article. All address one tradition or the other but none explicitly bridge both vocabularies.

Notes¶

The direct search for vocabulary bridging was mostly unsuccessful — no single paper explicitly declares the purpose of bridging human factors and AI safety vocabularies. The CSET brief comes closest with its title framing. The sycophancy technical survey (Malmqvist) was included as a counterexample demonstrating the silo pattern.
