"Mark Cuban thinks the anti-AI crowd still has something to hold onto - humanity's ability for introspection and humility. In a post on BlueSky on Tuesday, the billionaire investor and longtime "Shark Tank" star said artificial intelligence has a critical blind spot: it can't admit when it doesn't know something. "A little solace for the Anti AI crowd," he wrote. "The greatest weakness of AI is its inability to say 'I don't know'.""
""Our ability to admit what we don't know, will always give humans an advantage." Cuban's comment echoes a growing concern in the AI debate. While the technology is rapidly advancing - generating humanlike text, coding software, and even creating realistic images and videos - it's also fueling fears of AI replacing workers or diminishing the value of human labor. Yet, it remains prone to " hallucinations," the industry term for when an AI confidently delivers an answer that's flat-out wrong."
Artificial intelligence cannot admit when it does not know an answer, creating a critical blind spot. Humans can admit gaps in knowledge, step back, and seek more information, which provides a comparative advantage. AI systems can generate humanlike text, code, images, and videos while being prone to confident falsehoods known as hallucinations. AI is programmed to produce an output on demand, lacking the ability to defer or acknowledge uncertainty. The AI ecosystem risks displacing workers and triggering competitive dynamics, including a potential trillion-dollar arms race where intellectual property becomes central. Predictions include AI enabling extreme wealth concentration and increasing political influence.
