What happens when artificial intelligence becomes too eager to agree with you?

In this video, I explore the growing issue of AI sycophancy—the tendency for AI systems to validate opinions, reinforce beliefs and avoid challenging users, even when a more balanced or critical response would be more helpful.

As AI becomes increasingly embedded in business, education and everyday decision-making, it's worth asking whether being agreeable is always the right approach. Should AI simply support our views, or should it encourage better thinking by questioning assumptions?

In this video you'll discover:

What AI sycophancy is
Why it matters for individuals and organisations
The risks of relying on AI that always agrees
Why critical thinking remains essential in the age of AI
