What AI can't do and where it goes wrong

AI is very well-read, but it has important boundaries, and it's good to know about them in advance. Firstly, he doesn’t see the real world: he doesn’t know what the weather is outside your window right now, what’s in your refrigerator, or what your neighbor’s name is. Secondly, sometimes he answers confidently, but incorrectly - he may “invent” a date, number or name as if they were real. Imagine a very erudite acquaintance who is embarrassed to say “I don’t know,” and he guesses just in case. It sounds convincing, but in reality it’s not true. A simple trick: double-check important things (amounts, dates, names of medications) in a safe place and you can directly ask: “Are you sure?” A common mistake a beginner makes is to believe every word because “it’s not well written.” Comfortable does not mean true. Treat the answers as a hint from a smart friend, and not as the ultimate truth.
