We trust experts for their credentials. We follow leaders for their judgment. But AI is reshaping that dynamic - changing not just how we find information, but how we decide what, and who, to believe. </p><p>In this episode, Grace is joined by James Meachin, Chartered Psychologist and Partner at Pearn Kandola, to unpack the psychology of AI and influence. Together, they explore how we evaluate sources of information, why AI complicates that process, and the growing tension between AI output and human expertise. </p><p>They also get practical, examining the mental shortcuts we all rely on, how AI exploits them without even trying, and what we can do to stay critically aware in an age of increasingly convincing artificial intelligence.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>References</strong>:</p><ul><li>Cialdini, R.
