Generative AI at school, work and the hospital – the risks and rewards laid bare ========== Generative AI, unlike traditional AI, can produce novel content and has the potential to reshape society. It can enhance productivity and job satisfaction, but uneven access to AI technologies could worsen existing inequalities. Generative AI can also transform education by providing personalized instruction and support, but careful implementation is needed to avoid biases. In healthcare, generative AI can guide practitioners during diagnosis and reduce workloads, but it may not improve the diagnostic performance of expert physicians. Generative AI has the potential to exacerbate the spread of misinformation or reduce it, and governments should balance AI innovation with social equity and consumer protection. #Ai #GenerativeAi #Education #Healthcare #Information #Work #Inequalities #Misinformation #GovernmentRegulation https://theconversation.com/generative-ai-at-school-work-and-the-hospital-the-risks-and-rewards-laid-bare-227967
