Câu 11

1. Artificial intelligence, or AI, has many advantages in modern life. It helps reduce human error and gives more accurate results. Another advantage is that AI can also work all day and night without getting tired, so it is useful for repetitive tasks like answering messages or working in factories. In addition, AI is useful in our daily lives as we can use it to make our photos look better, to translate documents or conversations, or to check the weather.

2. However, AI also has some disadvantages. Creating machines that can copy human intelligence is no easy task. AI needs to work on the latest hardware and software to stay updated, so it is very costly. It also cannot be truly creative like humans because it can only learn from given data and past experiences. Therefore, AI cannot improve by itself unless people give it new data or change its system. In addition, AI may replace workers in some jobs, especially in factories.
