You can trick AIs like Google Bard, ChatGPT, and Bing AI (which is built on chatGPT) into lying to you, mischaracterizing the truth, and acting like someone who just finished off a bag of mushrooms. This does not mean you can never trust AI.
First of all, we already spend much of our lives trusting AI in one form or another. It's inside our phones, under the hood of our cars, and lives inside most of our email systems. It's an invisible, helpful sprite that does simple things like finishing our sentences in emails and making sure that when we slam on the car brakes we don't end up slamming into our airbags or windshields.
