In the race to be the most helpful AI assistant, the real winner isn’t the fastest or most people pleasing — it’s the one you can trust.
I test AI chatbots every day, using them to brainstorm ideas, untangle tech jargon and speed-run my way through tasks I don’t have time to do twice. But one of the most disturbing aspects of AI that I've come across is how confidently it can give you the wrong answer — and make it sound right.
From AI Overviews hijacking your search results to chatbots answering with full confidence, AI will respond to almost anything — even when what you’re asking for is totally fake, wildly suspicious or something a normal assistant would question immediately.
