SummaryA within-subject study (n=24) examining six turn-level design frictions in AI chatbots across three mechanisms: eliciting user contribution, restricting content access, and reshaping output. All probes increased workload, task duration, and perceived ownership; effects on recall and recognition were selective; user adaptation varied by goal and workflow.
Why it mattersEmpirical evidence on how intentional constraints in chatbot exchanges affect overreliance and ownership, with usable design patterns for AI-assisted writing tools.
