Executives are more likely to trust AI than themselves

Executives are twice as likely as rank-and-file workers to trust AI over their own judgment, per a survey out Wednesday morning.Why it matters: It's a worrying development. Leaders are hired for their experience and knowledge. Outsourcing that to AI raises the risk of making decisions that don't line up with reality, which then reverberate across companies and beyond.By the numbers: 32.8% of executives said that they trust AI more than their own judgment, according to the survey from Charter, a workplace research and media company.That's twice the rate for workers, or individual contributors.
