And this is the great difference between AI and conventional tech – the former’s ability to get better without human intervention. If its first answer was wrong, chances are that it will have found the right answer by the time it is asked the same question for the second or third time. A good example of this is when you ask AI a common maths problem or riddle. That’s because it still has a lot to learn. For example, if you ask the bot about a certain person, with a very common name, the chances are it will give you a response mixing the profiles of multiple people with the same name. And even then it still cannot match what human intelligence is capable of. The new buzz around AI is mostly thanks to OpenAI’s ChatGPT chatbot which can handle most queries humans throw at it.
