Any sort of automatic password changer just seems... easily problematic. The main issue being that you won't have actually thought about changing it yourself and will be reliant on the password manager to keep track of it. I'm already running into issues when I let my password manager recommend a really strong password and all of a sudden I can't input said password myself ever. Plus when I see compromised passwords I ignore them because that's a particular dumb easy password I use when making dumb accounts. Often times I don't even access the websites that use them anymore. It's not really a matter of trust, it just feels like over reliance on AI on top of already increasing over reliance on password managers is a recipe for disaster.
