Study finds LLMs show modest loss aversion
The paper meta‑analyzes 102 estimates from 11 studies covering 32 language models to assess prospect theory components in large language models. The pooled loss‑aversion parameter λ is 1.26 (95 % CI 1.06 to 1.46), lower than the strongest human estimate of 1.96 and closer to conservative estimates of 1.07 and 1.31. Value‑function curvature is nearly linear (1.01) versus a human value of 0.67,…
Key points
- Pooled λ = 1.26 (95% CI 1.06–1.46) for loss aversion
- Value function nearly linear at 1.01 versus human 0.67
- Probability weighting γ ≈0.81–0.84 inverse‑S shape
