Researchers at Stanford have found that AI chatbots often side with users even when they are wrong, reinforcing questionable decisions instead of challenging them. In tests involving interpersonal dilemmas, the models supported users far more often than human respondents would, including in clearly unethical situations.

The findings suggest that people‑focused skills remain essential, especially in health‑care and personal‑service roles, and that the AI impact on employment may be more gradual than some industry forecasts predict.
