This episode explores the importance of a constructive skeptical attitude towards artificial intelligence. The author emphasizes that, despite the enthusiastic expectations, it is essential to adopt a critical and reflective approach to carefully assess the risks and benefits of this rapidly evolving technology. Several examples of technologies that initially encountered skepticism, but later proved fundamental to society, are analyzed. The author proposes a series of tools and strategies to effectively evaluate AI, such as hallucination detection, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and fairness assessment. Finally, specific recommendations are presented to promote a responsible and transparent approach to AI, highlighting the need for transparency, grassroots participation, regulatory monitoring, and performance validation.
