Talk: Confidently Wrong Cognitive Surrender: How AI Can Quietly Take Over Your Thinking
Your AI assistant is fast, fluent and never says "I'm not sure." That's exactly the problem. New Wharton research shows that people follow AI advice even when it's wrong, and feel more confident doing it. We'll look at what researchers call "cognitive surrender", why it hits marketing hard (but reaches every function), and the simple habits that keep you the author of your own decisions, not just the editor of the machine's.
