Melanie Mitchell is the author of From Her Artificial Intelligence from Her Guide for thinking beings. She argues that we are very far from creating a superintelligence, no matter how much some companies say otherwise.

Mitchell provides a fundamental context to gauge the phenomenon of AI, a technology that has been in the public debate since tools like ChatGPT appeared two years ago. She says that while these systems can be very useful and I use them all the time, we have to be careful about the trust we place in them.
