With the continued mistakes lawyers are making when using generative AI, it’s clear that we need to upscale everyone’s education. Kai Riemer and Sandra Peter break it down today, explaining why artificial intelligence doesn’t actually learn.
If that surprises you, then this is a must-read. They write:
"Many misconceptions around AI stem from using words that have a certain meaning when applied to humans, such as learning. We know how humans learn, because we do it all the time. We have experiences; we do something that fails; we encounter something new; we read something surprising; and thus we remember, we update or change the way we do things."
Understanding this distinction is key to using AI responsibly. Read more at REAL KM: AI doesn’t really ‘learn’—and knowing why will help you use it more responsibly.
