Some Large Language Models Exhibit Consistent Risk Attitudes

arXiv:2607.16197v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As artificial intelligence systems are deployed in open-ended, high-stakes settings, a critical dimension remains unmeasured: how perceived risk is translated into action. We test whether large language models (LLMs) exhibit systematic and consistent risk attitudes under uncertainty. We introduce a cross-domain framework that decouples contextual risk belief from categorical decision, and apply it to six representative LLMs and 100 human participants across spatial navigation, clinical triage, and financial allocation tasks. Using regression models, we extract each agents belief-to-decision mapping and quantify risk sensitivity and risk attitude bias. We find that most tested LLMs exhibit (i) robust intra-task consistency, indicating stable mappings from contextual belief to risk decision within a fixed task domain; (ii) cross-domain rank-order stability, preserving relative risk posture across tasks; and (iii) a convergence toward a rest...
