iManage – Unravelling the Labyrinth of AI Myths: AI does not learn by itself iManage

Encouraged by media portrayals of AI, a widespread myth is that AI simply learns by itself. For example, a common misconception represents AI as a digital brain that can be plugged and played into a given scenario, learning to solve X, Y, Z challenges on its own. Such representations are based on fiction, not fact. While AI is a robotic brain that can learn, it learns in a different way than a human brain. AI uses mathematics and pre-classified data to learn. Crucially, AI needs a human brain to guide it through the learning process by pre-classifying data into categories that it can examine and categorize.
