About
Piero Ronzani is a behavioral scientist whose research lies at the intersection of human decision-making, artificial intelligence, and collective behavior. His work investigates how people interact with automated agents and how these interactions shape irrational social dynamics. In his most impactful study, "The Robotic Herd: Using Human-Bot Interactions to Explore Irrational Herding," Ronzani designed a large-scale online minority game involving nearly 2,000 participants to examine how humans shift their beliefs and behaviors when they know they are interacting with bots. This work reveals critical insights into the mechanisms of herding in strategic settings, showing that even awareness of artificial agents does not fully inoculate people against irrational social influence. While his citation count is still growing, Ronzani's research is pioneering in its experimental approach to understanding human-bot dynamics, a topic of increasing relevance in an era of AI-mediated social environments. His contributions are particularly valuable for scholars studying behavioral economics, computational social science, and the psychology of human-machine interaction.
