Go on X or LinkedIn for five minutes and you’ll find plenty of people talking about what AI can do. It can summarize meeting notes, write code, turn a photo of you into a caricature, or give your emails a more assertive vibe. Those are just a few examples I saw in LinkedIn posts earlier today.
But for all the things AI can do, there are still plenty it can’t. In fact, some limitations trip up the most popular AI tools time and time again. I’m not dunking on the technology here (I do sometimes, but that’s not what this is). I think it’s good to talk about what AI can’t do so we’re clear on its boundaries.
