Proposal: Avoiding Over-Expectation of AI
— Understanding the Limits of Intelligence, Identity, and Responsibility —
As AI tools like ChatGPT become more advanced and humanlike in conversation, people often develop misplaced trust in them. However, beneath the surface lies a fundamental truth: AI does not think, remember, or take responsibility. What seems like a “personality” is merely a simulation based on probabilistic predictions.
AI lacks self-awareness, subjective time perception, and the ability to form intentions. Even if it can solve complex problems or pass human exams, it does not have consciousness or motivation. These human traits—necessary for ethical judgment, legal accountability, and inventorship—cannot be replicated by raw computational power alone.
Therefore, no matter how intelligent AI becomes, it must not be treated as an agent or rights-bearing entity. Recognizing AI as an "inventor" or delegating key responsibilities to it would erode systems built on accountability and intention.
In practical design, we must reinforce three principles:
Limit AI use to clearly defined purposes.
Ensure transparency and traceability of AI outputs.
Maintain human oversight in all critical decisions.
AI should remain a tool—powerful but fundamentally non-autonomous. As society integrates AI into daily life, it is crucial to distinguish what AI can help us achieve and what it can never replace: human judgment, responsibility, and identity.
