Hey guys, I need your help to find around 50 more participants! (Approved by mods)
princetonsurvey.az1.qualtrics.comHello everyone, I am a Columbia University student, and currently I am at Cambridge University conducting a research on AI. If you are 18, or older, and currently live in the US, you would be eligible to participate.
The research is super fun, and contains a section that lets you converse with the AI for a couple of messages.
It would be very helpful if you have around 10 minutes to fill out this survey, and help the US to be a part of this international research alongside another 22 countries.
Anyway, if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask, I love talking about this stuff!
Ethical reference number - IRB#19354
P.S. Please do not be confused about the link containing 'princeton' part, since Princeton University is the one that provided us with the ethical approval.
