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.
