fah effect

A phenomenon when the world seems to work against you and your harmless actions end up backfiring. Like when you point out something cool and underrated, and suddenly everyone notices it—prices go up, it sells out, or it changes in a way that ruins it for you. You didn’t mean to cause the hype, but now you regret ever saying anything.

You post about a cheap, overlooked collectible—now it’s trendy and triple the price. Classic Fah Effect.

Smith-Sauer AI Amnesia Effect

A cognitive bias wherein individuals, after identifying clear errors or limitations in AI-generated content within their own area of expertise, nevertheless continue to place undue confidence in the same AI’s output on topics outside their expertise. This phenomenon reflects a selective skepticism: the observed unreliability of AI is compartmentalized rather than generalized, leading to inconsistent trust in the technology.

Jared, a software engineer, noticed that the AI couldn’t correctly format a for-loop in Python. Ten minutes later, he trusted it to draft a legally binding employment contract. Classic Smith-Sauer AI Amnesia Effect.
