Humans as a class are error prone but some humans in their respective fields are very very good. It's often not terribly hard to figure out based on resume and credentials who these folks are and as a shortcut we can look for markers in terms of terminology specifics confidence if it's less important like deciding what to read vs cancer care for your mom.
AI can trip all the right searches to fool these shortcuts whilst sometimes being entirely full of shit and they have no resume nor credentials to verify should we desire to check.
If you have such and vouch for it I can consider your trustworthiness rather than its. If you admit you yourself are reliant on it then this no longer holds
