Question 5hard

Question 11hard
How do you manage a skeptic who dismisses AI entirely?
Argue that AI is always rightAcknowledge valid concerns, start with a small low-risk clearly-valuable win, and let measured results convinceIgnore them and deploy anywayMatch their skepticism and cancel the project
