Compare specific, evidence-based trust in a familiar tool with appropriate reliance on an AI system.
What you will make
A comparison showing what supports relying on a familiar tool and what additional checks an AI-supported task needs.
Prompt
Identify a familiar object, tool, vehicle, or device that you rely on for a particular task. You may use a fictional or facilitator-provided example.
Questions
- What task do you rely on it to perform?
- What experience or evidence supports that reliance?
- Under which conditions does it work well?
- What maintenance, inspection, or outside support does it require?
- What failure signs do you know how to notice?
- What would cause you to stop relying on it?
Transfer
Apply the questions to one low-risk use of an AI system, then identify what changes. An AI system may produce variable output, make fluent mistakes, depend on missing context, or change across products and versions. Use current evidence for the actual task rather than assuming the analogy proves trustworthiness.
Output
Write one appropriate-reliance statement:
I have evidence to rely on this AI system for ___ under ___ conditions. I will still ___, and a person remains responsible for ___.
