A lot of people in journalism and the general public, and even in the tech world where people ought to know better, think of AI as magic omniscience when it's really just glorified autocorrect that will always give worse output than the material it was trained on. It's a useful tool for automating routine work like writing emails, recognising patterns or debugging code but it isn't real intelligence, let alone wisdom, and it should never be trusted blindly.

Whatever the social response to AI technology is, educating people about it being just another dumb tool is going to be part of it.
