What Types of Human-AI Teams Exist?

Taxonomy of human-AI team types derived from analysis of 53 papers

A new arXiv preprint analyzes 53 papers on human-AI teaming and proposes a five-cluster taxonomy grounded in psychological teaming frameworks: AI Assistant, Ad-hoc Dependency, Ad-hoc Forced Dependency, Paired Equanimity, and Group Equanimity. The authors argue that disparate team types are currently studied under a single shared definition, raising concerns about cross-paper generalizability of findings. The paper concludes with a reporting checklist and guidance for field synthesis.
