Summary

Understanding A.I., it seems, is the fastest way to start doubting it. Today on Second Request, we're re-sharing a conversation Executive Editor Teddy had with Chiara Longoni, Associate Professor of Marketing at Bocconi University, to discuss her research on AI literacy — and why people who understand AI less may actually trust it more. Note: This conversation originally aired on Second Request on November 10, 2025. To learn more about The Capitol Forum follow us on Linkedin and Bluesky .
