I know I tend to have really pro AI testing experts, and I wanted to give another point of view to balance things out. I can't think of anyone more perfect to do that than Michael

So, is AI truly the revolution it's marketed to be?

Listen to hear how Michael cuts through the hype to reveal what these tools really are: probabilistic text generators that often seduce us with their confident-sounding outputs.

You'll discover when AI can be genuinely helpful in testing and when it's likely to lead us astray. Michael shares fascinating examples of AI inconsistencies and explains why the overconfidence these systems project can be dangerously misleading.

Whether you're concerned about AI replacing testers or looking to incorporate these tools into your workflow responsibly, this episode provides the critical thinking framework you need.

Stay tuned for part two of my conversation with Michael Bolton, where we separate AI fact from fiction in the world of software testing.
