The risks and promise of AI in decision-making

Using AI comes with risks and challenges, but it also holds incredible potential. In the Black Box series, Noam Hessenfeld explores the mysteries and uncertainties of AI. While there are concerns about AI solving problems in unintended ways, it has already shown remarkable achievements. For instance, Google's AI predicted protein structures, aiding drug discovery, and astronomers have discovered new stars with the help of AI. Scientists are also making progress in decoding animal communication thanks to AI. Despite the dangers, the positive aspects of AI make it an attractive tool for decision-making.
