C) In a science fiction novel from the 1940s.

Question 2 of 10

How does a deep learning AI primarily learn to identify a cat in a photo?

A) By analyzing millions of example photos and learning the statistical patterns that define a "cat".

B) By following a handwritten list of rules created by a programmer (e.g., "if it has whiskers, it's a cat").

A) To browse the live internet and report the latest news.

B) To predict the next most likely word in a sequence based on its training data.

C) To feel emotions and have a genuine conversation.

Question 5 of 10

What is the key difference that makes "Generative AI" generative?

A) It is always 100% factually correct.

B) It can only be used by computer programmers.

C) It creates new content (text, images, music) rather than just classifying existing data.

Question 6 of 10

A) Help us with our homework.

B) Write professional emails for us.

C) Make significant life decisions on our behalf due to its lack of moral capacity.

A) Using personas or role-playing.

B) Hallucination.

C) Deep learning.

Question 10 of 10

What is the primary purpose of using AI, as described in the chapter?

A) To find a new form of companionship.

B) To replace the need for human thinking entirely.
