And this is not bad at all. Dr. Keith Darling believes that you should not really be upset because of the limited capabilities of artificial intelligence systems. Moreover, they are unlikely to ever be able to approach a person in this regard. Here's why. Discuss
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, many attempts have been made to create artificial intelligence systems that would help in the diagnosis of the disease. They had to easily and quickly find various patterns between medical data.
But recently it has become clear that such tools have not justified themselves. The fact is that they still made a lot of mistakes when looking for patterns. But this does not mean that machine learning methods are useless. People just need to understand the advantages and disadvantages of artificial intelligence and accept the fact that people think differently – not like a machine.
A person always sees the context and can make decisions depending on it. But artificial intelligence will do its job, even if the context is not suitable. That is, he can predict something, but he does not realize what exactly he is doing. Therefore, some information that is obvious to a small child can confuse the system. For this reason, the errors of artificial intelligence systems seem absurd to people.
The human brain, unlike artificial intelligence, is flexible and versatile. We can quickly change our minds depending on the situation, grasp the context and general concepts, are able to find solutions even in unexpected situations and come to non-obvious conclusions.
Also, artificial intelligence technologies, if correct information can easily perform some tasks. For example, calculations, forecasting, pattern recognition. You just need to understand how artificial intelligence works and apply it where it can really be useful: for example, to detect security threats, collect information on Mars, etc.
