AI's limitations in science, history, healthcare, and politics

AI, such as Chat GPT, is not reliable in providing accurate information or insights in the fields of science, history, healthcare, and politics. In science, it cannot differentiate between hoaxes and real information, making it unable to provide trustworthy scientific guidance. Similarly, in history, AI is limited by its reliance on popular narratives, leading to potential inaccuracies and biased perspectives. In healthcare, AI's output tends to favor popular treatments and pharmaceutical solutions, rather than alternative, effective options. Finally, in politics, AI often reflects the prevailing narrative, lacking the ability to discern between hoaxes and facts. Overall, AI's limitations in these crucial areas hamper its utility for providing reliable information and analysis.
