Why do you use cryptography then? Why don't you trust your friends to be what they are? Why do you require records of your bank account, why can't you trust both sides to just keep their word?

I hate liars and hypocrites. If someone says they won't use AI, then they should be able to mathematically proved they didn't use AI. Otherwise they are a plain liar.
