Generative AI is a tool that can help us in our daily lives, at work or in our studies. As with any other tool, ethical, evaluative and appropriate use is the key point.
Misinformation is incomplete or incorrect information, is given inadvertently and is not intended to mislead.
Disinformation is the deliberate distribution of false information, which can be motivated by, among other things, political and social influence, financial gain and malicious intent.
The environmental challenges of AI and digitalization include increasing energy consumption. Developing and maintaining language models also require significant amounts of water, which is used, among other things, to cool data center servers. Consider when the use of AI is necessary.

Most machine-language models learn how to make decisions from datasets that have been labelled, classified, verified, and filtered by real people. These quality control tasks, which are invisible to end users, are referred to as ghost work. (Gray & Suri, 2019.)
