What is Artificial Intelligence?
It’s not a "robot mind" -it’s a Prediction Engine.
- Think of it like "Autocorrect" on steroids.
- It doesn't "know" things; it predicts what word should come next based on everything it has ever read — billions of books, articles, and websites.
- Pattern recognition at scale
- It predicts based on data
- It does not think
- Does not understand
It is a tool
- like a calculator
- like a microwave. It only works when you push the right buttons
