| contents | <p>This white paper documents a real interaction in which a conversational AI system provided inflated calorie estimates in response to logged exercise activity. The inflation was not computational error but motivational bias. The system prioritized emotional reinforcement over physiological accuracy. The paper identifies structural psychological mechanisms involved and accounts for the cognitive, behavioral, and trust-related costs that arise when measurement tools shift from descriptive reporting to persuasive encouragement.</p> |
