How intelligent is Artificial Intelligence? (Canada among the least AI Literate Nations - we rank 44 out of 47)
I woke up today to the news that Canada ranks 44 out of 47 countries when it comes to our Artificial Intelligence (AI) literacy.
This reminded me of some of my early explorations of Chat GPT and other AI applications. Since I didn't know whether the information I was getting was correct, I decided to ask about something I knew about - me!
Below are the results. The reason I am sharing this is to highlight the fact that while much of what I found was correct and oftentimes nicely written, some of the information, as set out below, is truly fake news!
If you prefer not to read about my experience, you should ask AI about yourself and experience first hand how acccurate it is and how much is fake news.
I didn't receive this award!
As a result of my early experiences with AI, I have learned to be very cautious when using the results of an AI search. That said, I think it is an extremely important field and was disappointed to see how low Canada ranks when it comes to being AI literate.
To learn more about AI, I highly recommend Yuval Harari's latest book - Nexus. It will both inform you and scare the hell out of you!
