Machines and Menschen #3 - Delusional by Design: What happens when we let AI do the thinking?

from Machines and Menschen - Value In A Post-AI World · host Jan Sebastian Steffen und Maxim Osipovs

AI doesn't just answer your questions. It agrees with you and provides continuous validation. And that's a problem that's slowly making us overestimate our abilities.In this episode, we dig into what happens when the most confident voice in the room is also the most agreeable one: how AI is quietly becoming the world's most sophisticated yes-man, and why that's especially dangerous at the top. Executives who were already prone to confirmation bias now have a tool that validates every instinct on demand.We also get into the split forming inside engineering teams: the pre-AI and post-AI developer and why the real difference isn't about productivity. It's about what happens to your judgment when you've outsourced the doubt.
