Artificial intelligence has existed for decades, and it continues to improve. But the growth of AI technology has created many challenges. AI has taken jobs from humans. When asked a question, AI can generate false or biased answers, depending on the data the AI was trained on. AI can also assist in creating deepfakes, or images, videos, or audio that are fake. Explore the history of AI and what led to its current challenges.
