While anything to do with computers is “math” that doesn’t mean that someone who is an expert in math has any special knowledge about everything related to computers.
It’s true that you don’t need to be an expert to recognize the potential issues.

His opinion is about AI and popes. He has probably an above average grasp of AI, and an expertise in popes. I’ll give it a pass.

Probably not.
If not, then you don’t value his opinion due to his expertise, you just acknowledge that his opinion aligns with yours.
