Be honest: how often do you reflexively defer to AI? What if that same system told you it had some uncertainty about its answers? What would be different, and why? Author and journalist Maggie Jackson and I dig into what happens when we shuffle the certainty deck and reinsert unsureness in AI, our interactions with it, and our own thinking.
