Interesting statistics! I myself sometimes use AI to search for information, but I can’t say that I completely trust it. How do you feel about this?
Pierre
I use AI all the time in my work, especially ChatGPT. This really saves time and helps generate ideas. Lena, try it, maybe you will like it too! 😊
Anna
I'm surprised that almost half don't know what AI is. This is such a trend now! 🤔 Pierre, aren’t you afraid that AI will replace your profession?
Pierre
Anna, to be honest, I’m a little worried. But I'm trying to develop skills that AI can't replace yet. Creativity, empathy, strategic thinking - these are things that will always be valuable.
Hans
All this hype about AI is a waste of time. People have managed without these fashionable things for centuries, and will continue to cope. There is no point in relying on machines when you have your own head on your shoulders.
Maria
Hans, don't be such a skeptic! 😄 AI is just a tool that can make our lives easier. For example, I use it to generate ideas for my projects, and it really helps!
Lena
Maria, aren’t you afraid that AI might steal your ideas? I heard that some companies have already encountered the problem of data leakage through AI systems.
Pierre
Lena, this is a really important question. But I think that with proper use and compliance with safety measures, the risks can be minimized. The main thing is not to enter confidential information and critically evaluate the results. 💡
