[Advaita-l] Avidya is virodha or abhava 3 - "All types of abhAva are also bhAvarUpa only"

[Raja Krishnamurti]

I agree with Sri. Krishnamoorthy. Ai is only a tool and is created by a human. While it does have its uses, I can safely say it is at the level of the intellect. Yes, we have made advances in Ai particularly on the medical diagnosis. But it has still ways to go before it can be compared to a Guru. Ai is the perception average of many , but not all as in samashti. Avidyā is absence of Vidya and has no existence of its own.
With Best regards,Raja Krishnamurti

Yes.AI is not to be relied upon .It can be used to get informations from various sources which are in the internet but it is not be taken as authentic or reliable.AI is only a tool and useful tool is undeniable.But it is not a guru.
