A Reddit user warns about an emerging "AI psychosis" blind spot among business leaders. While AI's promise is real, the speed and extent of blind faith executives place in it are concerning.
Citing a recent survey, the post highlights that 74% of executives said they have more confidence in AI’s advice than in that of colleagues or friends, and 44% would defer to its reasoning over their own insights. The author cautions that current AI is nowhere near good enough to completely replace independent human judgment.
