Goof-Ups, Glitches, and Mistakes AI Platforms Make - And How Creators, Leaders, and Learners Can Avoid the Traps

Artificial Intelligence is transforming the world at breathtaking speed. It writes, analyzes, creates, predicts, and automates. Organizations are investing billions. Professionals are relying on it daily. Students are using it for learning. Creators are building entire businesses around it.

But what happens when AI gets it wrong?

Behind the impressive demonstrations and marketing promises lies a less-discussed reality: AI makes mistakes-sometimes small, sometimes expensive, and sometimes dangerous.

Artificially Unintelligent takes readers beyond the hype to reveal the hidden limitations, blind spots, biases, hallucinations, and decision-making failures that today's AI platforms can produce. This practical and eye-opening guide shows how AI systems generate convincing misinformation, amplify human biases, create false confidence, and occasionally fail in ways that even experts struggle to predict.

Rather than promoting fear or skepticism, this book provides a balanced and realistic approach to AI adoption. Readers will learn how to use AI as a powerful assistant without becoming dependent on it or misled by it.
