LLM-generated messages can effectively persuade humans on policy issues similarly to human-crafted messages, with differences in perceived persuasion mechanisms.
Methods: Three pre-registered experiments were conducted comparing the persuasive effectiveness of LLM-generated and human-generated messages on policy attitudes, using control conditions with neutral messages.
Key Findings: Influence of LLM-generated messages on participants' policy attitudes and perceived characteristics of the message authors.
