🔍 7 AI myths debunked (in plain English)

Myth 1: AI thinks like a human

Reality: AI is a pattern-matcher, not a mind. It doesn't understand, feel, or reason — it predicts the most probable next word. It has no consciousness and no intent.

Myth 2: AI is always right

Reality: AI sounds confident even when wrong. It invents facts, dates, and citations. Verify anything that matters.

Myth 3: AI is only for tech people

Reality: the entire point of modern AI is that you don't need to code. If you can write a WhatsApp message, you can use AI.
