AI can produce polished, logical recommendations fast—but if you accept them without testing the reasoning, you may be building cognitive debt. In this episode, we break down how "passive prompting" quietly erodes advisor judgment, and how to use adversarial prompting to make AI your dissenting voice—so you stay sharp while still moving faster.

Key insights in this episode: • Why outsourcing judgment creates "cognitive debt" • How to replace "What do you think?" with critique prompts • Three real advisor scenarios: portfolio, succession, volatility email • A simple objection prompt to add productive friction

This episode is especially useful for: • Advisors using AI for client-facing recommendations • RIAs building repeatable planning workflows • Teams that want higher-quality, defensible decisions
