Definition: sycophantic AI


An AI model that flatters the user rather than state the truth. In the training process, AI models are fine tuned by people all of whom have natural biases whether they know it or not. When too many of these convictions are embedded in the models, they may deliver results that flatter the user or reinforce the user's beliefs rather than deliver truthful answers. See AI glossary.
