Before the emergence of ChatGPT, Claude or other Chat AI tools, we were already using AI in our everyday lives. Narrow AI, which are AI tools developed to perform a certain tasks, have existed as parts of search engines, digital assistants, and self-driving cars for at least a decade. Examples of narrow AI include:
Strong AI or Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is purely theoretical. AGI is defined as AI that has human-level cognitive abilities across all domains and which has self-awareness and reasoning abilities.
ChatGPT is an advanced Narrow AI. ChatGPT and similar services combine various narrow AI abilities that have been around for a while, such as natural language processing and machine learning into one new narrow AI component known as large language model (LLM) generative AI. A large language model, or LLM, is a deep learning algorithm that can recognize, summarize, translate, predict and generate text and other content based on knowledge gained from massive datasets.This results a services highly user-friendly interface design that can rapidly generative content.
Information literacy is the skill set required for recognizing the nature of an information need and fulfilling the need by effectively locating and ethically using quality, reliable, and applicable information content. Information literacy is important to the use of AI because the relative ease to use and speed of a service like ChatGPT can easily be mistaken for accuracy and actual knowledge and understand.
