Warning about AI abuse: Don't turn "assistants" into experts

In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) – especially models like ChatGPT – have become a familiar tool for millions of people. From writing emails, assisting with studying, finding information, to explaining “difficult” things, AI seems to have crept into every corner of life. Convenient, fast and smart – that is the general feeling of most users.

But it is this feeling of "AI knows everything" that is pushing many people into... real risks.

False Beliefs: When AI is Mistaken for Doctor, Teacher, Analyst

Many people are seeing AI as an omniscient expert: able to answer any question, understand any problem, and understand every field. And they are starting to rely on it for important decisions — decisions that should only be made by human experts.

Reports from professional agencies have recorded worrying cases:

  • Self-diagnosis by ChatGPT:
  • Instead of going to the doctor, some people type their symptoms into AI and believe it can “analyze” them for them. This leads to people missing serious illnesses or self-treating incorrectly — with potentially dire consequences.
  • AI can list information, but it doesn't understand the body, doesn't do clinical examinations, doesn't have medical experience, and can even come to wrong conclusions.
  • AI-dependent students:
  • When students let ChatGPT do their homework, solve their problems, answer their questions… their thinking ability gradually fades away. Learning becomes “type in questions – get answers”.
  • Dependence on AI causes children to lose analytical and synthesis skills, and especially the ability to self-study – core elements for future maturity.
  • Using AI to analyze investment, finance, real estate
  • Some people use AI to predict markets, value assets, or make investment decisions. This is extremely risky, because AI does not have real-time data, does not understand market fluctuations, and cannot “read the situation” like a real expert.
  • AI just generates answers seems reasonable, not the answer definitely right.

Why can't AI replace experts?

The reason is simple — because AI no experience, no real judgment, do not understand human emotions and do not analyze based on your personal circumstances.

Current AI tools work by predicting and synthesizing data, not actually “thinking” or “making diagnoses.”

  • When the input data is wrong — the answer will be wrong.
  • When questions lack information — results are more skewed.

And even under the best of conditions, AI can create something called "illusion (hallucination): information that is completely untrue, but presented very confidently.

AI is useful — but only when used correctly

This doesn’t mean we should turn our backs on AI. On the contrary, AI is a great tool to:

  • quick information synthesis
  • provide reference perspective
  • learning support
  • scenario simulation
  • suggest many directions of analysis

But no matter how powerful a tool is, it is still just a tool. And it is decision must always be done by a qualified person.

Advice from Anti-Fraud

In the context of increasingly sophisticated online fraud, we need to be alert to even the “unintentional deviations” from technology.

  • Do not self-diagnosis via AI.
  • Do not let AI do the homework for you, then lose the ability to think.
  • Do not use AI to make financial, investment or legal decisions.
  • And especially: never confusing AI with real experts.

AI is an intelligent assistant — not a replacement.

Use it for support, not for dependence.
Consult it, but don't entrust your life to it.
Let AI do what it does best, and let humans make the important decisions.
