タグ: how AI works

I think we all agree that AI is an incredible tool. It can help you write, research, brainstorm, and even make decisions faster than ever. But to use AI efficiently, it’s important to understand how it actually works—and, more importantly, where it can go wrong. Most AI models, like ChatGPT (GPT-4o), Claude 3.5, and Llama 3.2 can answer almost any question because they were trained on huge amounts of data. However, this happened in the past and they don’t update themselves in real time. Instead, they have a cutoff date, meaning they only “know” information up until the last time they were trained. For example: This means if you ask about anything that happened after that […]

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has expanded rapidly in the past years and now it powers voice assistants, recommendation systems, chatbots, self-driving technology, and even creative tools that generate text, images, and music. Whether we realize it or not, AI influences how we work, communicate, shop, and consume content. Yet, despite its growing presence, AI remains a mystery for many. Terms like machine learning, deep learning, LLMs, and multimodal AI often sound technical, cryptic, or overwhelming. With so many buzzwords floating around, it’s easy to get lost in the jargon. This guide breaks down the most important AI terms in simple, plain English—helping you understand what they mean, how they work, and why they matter. Whether you’re a tech enthusiast, a […]

Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing our world, powering everything from chatbots like ChatGPT to complex scientific research. But behind the convenience and innovation lies a hidden cost—massive data centers that consume huge amounts of energy and water. As more people use AI every day, it becomes critical to understand exactly what these systems require and the environmental consequences of keeping them running. At the heart of these AI systems are powerful supercomputers that train models like GPT-4. These systems require not only high-performance hardware but also enormous quantities of water to cool the equipment and manage the heat generated during both training and everyday operation. In this article, we’ll break down […]

Can an open-source AI really outsmart billion-dollar giants? Meet DeepSeek-R1, a groundbreaking model from China that’s turning heads worldwide. It recently scored an astonishing 97.3% on MATH-500, a math benchmark that leaves most competitors in the dust, and hit a 96.3% percentile on Codeforces, putting its programming skills on par with human experts. What’s even more surprising is that DeepSeek-R1 is fully open-source and costs a fraction of traditional models to train and deploy. With its reinforcement learning-based architecture and MIT license, it’s challenging the dominance of proprietary systems like OpenAI’s o1 and Google’s Gemini 2.0. This is more than just another AI release—it’s a revolution in accessibility, affordability, and […]

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the most transformative technologies of our time. Yet, despite its widespread adoption, misconceptions about AI persist. From exaggerated fears of job displacement to fantasies about AI gaining consciousness, the myths surrounding AI can distort public perception and hinder productive discussions. Let’s break down ten of the most common AI myths and separate fact from fiction. 1. Myth: AI is Smarter Than Humans Reality: AI can outperform humans in specific tasks like chess or image recognition, but this does not equate to general intelligence. AI lacks understanding, common sense, and emotional intelligence. For example, AI language models like GPT-3 generate text by analyzing vast amounts of data […]
