With the increasing development of human-AI teaming structures within and across geographies, the time is ripe for a continuous and objective look at the predictors, barriers, and facilitators of human-AI scientific collaboration from a multidisciplinary point of view. This paper aims at contributing to this end by exploiting a set of factors affecting attitudes towards the adoption of human-AI interaction into scientific work settings. In particular, we are interested in identifying the determinants of trust and acceptability when considering the combination of hybrid human-AI approaches for improving research practices. This includes the way as researchers assume human-centered artificial intelligence (AI) and crowdsourcing as valid mechanisms for aiding their tasks. Through the lens of a unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) combined with an extended technology acceptance model (TAM), we pursue insights on the perceived usefulness, potential blockers, and adoption drivers that may be representative of the intention to use hybrid intelligence systems as a way of unveiling unknown patterns from large amounts of data and thus enabling novel scientific discoveries.
