9. No AI has ANY reasoning capability

It is all just statistics / probabilities based on fragments it has absorbed. That can be enormously useful, particularly in cases requiring collation of information, but any process requiring reasoning is fraught.

If you want to know how to handle error code 23Bz5758a from the ButtFiddle app, AI can give some useful answers very quicjly, as long as some homan has previously investigated and found solutions. AI might give you 5 answers, 4 of which are way off the mark. But they come quickly, so even a low hit rate might still be useful.

But don't expect AI to do any fact checking. That requires reasoning and critical thinking. There is no thicking, critical or otherwise with AI. It is jest an amazingly complex table lookup , pattern-matching system.
