Interrogating AI Agent Output
Before accepting or acting upon an AI agent's findings, managers should critically examine the underlying evidence. AI agents frequently present statistics derived from small, skewed, or unrepresentative samples with the same confident tone as thoroughly supported conclusions, often correcting these discrepancies only when explicitly prompted. Directly asking pointed verification questions—such as identifying specific source surveys and exact response counts—reveals whether claims are well-supported or distorted.
