On February 27, 2026, a regular research seminar of the International Laboratory of Intangible-driven Economy (IDLab) was held. Valeriia Fedorova, Research Assistant at IDLab, presented a talk titled “Use of Generative AI in Project Descriptions and Funding Outcomes in Crowdfunding.”The study was co-authored by Petr Parshakov, Head of the Laboratory, and Marina Zavertiaeva, Senior Research Fellow at IDLab.The study focuses on an increasingly rele

© iStockScientists at HSE University have found that current AI models, including ChatGPT and Claude, tend to overestimate the rationality of their human opponents—whether first-year undergraduate students or experienced scientists—in strategic thinking games, such as the Keynesian beauty contest. While these models attempt to predict human behaviour, they often end up playing 'too smart' and losing because they assume a higher level of l

Researchers at the HSE Institute for Cognitive Neuroscience have investigated how 'sugar-free' labelling affects consumers’ willingness to pay for such products. It was found that the label has little impact on the products’ appeal due to a trade-off between sweetness and healthiness: on the one hand, the label can deter consumers by implying an inferior taste, while on the other, it signals potential health benefits. The study findings have been published in Frontiers in Nutrition.

AbstractThe transition to a circular economy (CE) and green transition represents a pivotal shift in addressing global sustainability challenges. This introductory chapter delves into the fundamental principles of the circular economy and the green transition, elucidating their relevance to the Global South. The circular economy framework aims to redefine growth by decoupling economic activity from the consumption of finite resources, emphasizing

Mathematicians at HSE University believe that there is no need to fear losing jobs because of the widespread use of AI, while at the same time they warn against uncritical acceptance of works and projects prepared with its help. AI, however, can be a useful tool in research, creating models and processing large volumes of information.The HSE Faculty of Mathematics held a research seminar entitled ‘How Artificial Intelligence Changes the
