Myth: AI thinks like a human
Fact: AI does not think, feel, or understand things the way people do. It follows rules and patterns created by humans and uses data to provide results or suggestions.

Myth: AI replaces people
Fact: AI is designed to support people, not replace them. It helps with repetitive or time-consuming tasks so people can focus on decision-making, creativity, and problem-solving.

Myth: AI always gives correct answers
Fact: AI can make mistakes. Information provided by AI should always be reviewed for accuracy, especially when used for business or important decisions.

Myth: AI is only for large or tech companies
Fact: Many AI tools are designed for everyday use and are already part of common software and services used by small businesses and individuals.

Myth: Using AI is complicated
Fact: Many AI tools are built to be easy to use and work in familiar programs like email, documents, and spreadsheets.
