    Thank you for your attention. This research is being conducted by researchers at the University of
Maryland, College Park. The aim of this study is to understand why people choose to adopt or not adopt
Artificial Intelligence (AI) in their work. Particularly, this study focuses on how workers` acceptance
towards AI. Your participation in this research is completely voluntary. The procedures involve completing
a set of questions about an AI which can automatically help in English writing. First, you will
perform one reading and summary task without the help of AI. Then, you will read a description about the AI and its
capabilities, and you will answer a few questions. In the third step, you will work with the AI. Finally, you
will be surveyed on your experience with the AI after you have used the AI. This task should take less
than 15 minutes to complete. You will receive $2.00 for completing the task through Prolific.co. You will
be responsible for any taxes assessed on the compensation.
