One of the inventors of Siri, the original AI agent, wants you to "handle with care" when it comes to artificial intelligence. But are we becoming too cautious around AI in Europe and risking our future?

"People are over-trusting [AI] and taking their responses on face value without digging in and making sure that it's not just some hallucination that's coming up.

So very, very much this. I see people taking AI responses at face value all the time. Look at the number of lawyers that have submitted briefs containing AI hallucinated citations and been reprimanded for them, for example.

And it's not just stupid people either. Even smart and educated people get lulled into a false sense of security by a few correct answers to easy questions.

In a way this has happened before (people trusting stuff on social media, trusting bad headlines from bad newspapers, ...), but AI is this on steroids.
