What would you say are common misconceptions about AI?

Many AI-related misconceptions are making the rounds in the age of “fake news.” The most common ones are:

  • AI will replace humans
  • AI systems aren’t safe
  • AI will lead to significant unemployment
  • While these types of stories are common, they’re far from the truth. Even though some AI-based technology is able to complete some tasks—for example, analyzing zettabytes of data in less than a second—it still needs humans to gather the data and define the patterns for identification.
