Dr. Tamara “Tami” Patzer, founder of AI Identity Engineering
and creator of the FirstAnswer Authority System, expanded her national visibility this month with a featured keynote at Tasha Chen-Batts’ Wealthy Me Experience and an in-depth interview with Elizabeth Bieniek, host of Cake on Tuesday and author of Cake on Tuesday: 25 Lessons to Unlock Corporate Innovation.
Bieniek, known for her work in technology, leadership, and corporate innovation, interviewed Patzer about the rising importance of AI identity integrity, expert verification, and the mechanisms AI uses to decide which professionals to surface and recommend.
During the interview, Patzer explained how AI acts as a mirror for human identity and why professionals must engineer strong machine-readable signals if they want to appear in AI-driven results. She also discussed the growing issue of Identity Collision, where AI confuses individuals with similar names—often elevating the more famous person by default.
“AI reflects the identity you bring to it,” Patzer said. “When your external signals and internal identity align, AI amplifies your expertise. When they don’t, the system misinterprets you or replaces you with someone else entirely.”
At the Wealthy Me Experience, Patzer delivered her keynote, “Creation at the Speed of Thought,” demonstrating how AI accelerates identity expansion, personal clarity, and professional authority. Her frameworks—including the AI Reality Check, AI Suggestibility Score, AI Trust Score, and Identity Collision Risk Score—have become central to helping professionals understand how AI platforms interpret and classify them.
Patzer’s recent appearances come during a year when journalism and AI institutions have intensified their focus on identity verification and trust standards. Reports from the Poynter Institute, Nieman Lab at Harvard University, Columbia Journalism Review, the International Fact-Checking Network, the American Press Institute, the Trust Project, and the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism have highlighted the increasing risks of expert misidentification and identity confusion in AI-driven environments.
Patzer’s work addresses these concerns by teaching professionals how to build clear, verifiable identity architectures that AI can confidently recognize and elevate.
“Visibility in 2025 isn’t determined by search keywords,” Patzer said. “It’s determined by identity clarity. If AI cannot distinguish who you are, your expertise is effectively invisible.”
Patzer continues advising leaders, organizations, authors, and physicians on AI identity integrity and appears frequently on national media platforms, podcasts, and stages discussing the future of expert recognition.
