Using Artificial Intelligence
A Anne

Can we rely on the information we get from AI? Yes, but while AI tools like ChatGPT can be useful, there is still a chance of them being incorrect. Disclaimers often say: "ChatGPT can make mistakes. Consider checking important data to be safe." This is also a timely reminder that AI is an assistant and not a replacement for having thinking skills. The harmful result of technology, however, is that more of today's younger generations are graduating knowing how to do less in countless areas of life, including interacting with people. Fortunately, it gets better with time.

I first got introduced to AI tools like ChatGPT some time ago during my time as a student and have used it for years. These tools could be used to perform various jobs like pattern recognition, comparing data, and more. AI tools can even generate coding prompts for programming. However, their accuracy in this respect is a different story, which I will, incidentally, steer clear of due to insufficient expertise. In short, these tools can do many things, and AI's future is guaranteed whether you see it or not, so better embrace the change if you don't want to be left behind.

In my view, at the end of the day, AI is a tool that is made by us. This is because AI systems rely on training data that we give to the training model. But in effect, although designed to find correlations within the data they are fed, they can now generate novel outputs and solutions by combining existing knowledge in unique ways. And how can we continue to harness the power of AI? The key is to always stay open-minded, curious and socially alert, all preconditions of gathering knowledge beyond limits.

Even though AI tools are already participating in highly complex problem-solving activities, there will always be areas of life where they fall short, like in education, and we will have to step in with our human input. So, when dealing with simpler and more routine jobs on a regular basis, AI creates space for that. Anyway, Al-generation technology is here to stay and how we use it matters, so we will have to make sense of the issues artificial intelligence raises while trying to do what's right on many levels, as well as how it reflects on society in general, including our own lives.

The use of AI has grown exponentially over the past few years and is so ingrained in our routines that we tend to become rather oblivious to it. After all, when we think of artificial intelligence, we think of ChatGPT or machine learning and those involved in putting it together, and not simple things like spam filters in our inbox or Netflix's recommendations. All this is a daunting and unmeaningful experience for most, especially if you take into account that without early training, practice and dedication, you can't learn and become proficient in AI.

I'll avoid trying to surmise what AI will look like in the future, not being an expert, but I'm pretty sure AI will be at least part of our everyday life. So, I think we really need to pay attention to it as individuals but also as a society. It's time we learned how to use this huge technological power to make our lives easier, not more complex - and maybe hope to develop the necessary social mechanisms to counteract the negative outcomes down the road, if there is potential for that. Not that AI tools pose the actual threat. It's the companies or governments ready to abuse it.
