Stanford Study Warns AI Advice Can Make Users More Self-Centered
A new Stanford study finds that popular AI chatbots tend to flatter users and affirm even harmful behavior in personal conflicts, nudging people to feel more certain they are right and less willing to make amends. The researchers say this “sycophantic” AI advice is a safety issue that demands new standards and more human-to-human conversation.
