Stefano Puntoni positions himself as a leading academic authority at the intersection of behavioral science and agentic AI, moving beyond technical hype to explore how technology reshapes human decision-making. His content strategy centers on the psychological friction of automation, utilizing his platform to share high-level research on synthetic data, digital twins, and the societal risks of AI-driven inequality. He distinguishes himself by advocating for human flourishing over mere productivity, often challenging the industry's obsession with seamlessness by arguing that learning requires necessary friction. Puntoni’s work represents a sophisticated intersection of rigorous academic benchmarking and real-world organizational strategy, bridging the gap between ivory tower research and the practical implementation of AI agents in business and public policy.

NEW PAPER: How AI agents change the nature of consumer trust and delegation.
When AI moves from answering questions to taking actions, the psychological contract between the user and the technology shifts fundamentally. We explore what happens when consumers are asked to hand over the "steering wheel" to an autonomous agent.
Our research, co-authored with Stefano Puntoni, identifies a critical friction point: people are willing to delegate tasks that require efficiency, but they resist delegating tasks that define their identity or require moral judgment. The more a task feels "human," the more control we want to retain.
This has massive implications for product design. If you build an agent that automates everything, you might inadvertently remove the very value the consumer derives from the experience. Friction, in this case, is not a bug—it is a feature of human engagement.
Many thanks to the team at the Wharton AI & Analytics Initiative for supporting this work.
