Trust is a concept that inherently links to human-to-human relations. The trust people give to machines is essentially rooted in the trust of the individuals who created them. The ability to trust AI, seen as a non-human entity, raises skepticism around its capability to offer reliable advice or guidance. The suggestion is that individuals would prefer advice from a person rather than AI due to concerns regarding trustworthiness. The notion that future AI will be more trusted if built around human personalities is highlighted. This is attributed to the challenge of averaging advice or recommendations from various sources, particularly when they are contradictory. The importance of a personalized AI, such as one based on a single individual like Warren Buffett, is proposed as a more trustworthy and comfortable option than a generalized AI that combines diverse knowledge. The idea is that trust in AI can be enhanced by aligning it with a specific human personality, ensuring compatibility and reliability in the advice and information provided.
