I'm not Sure, but Here's a Guess

Sometimes AI reminds me of my younger self — confidently wrong.

I once asked an AI to explain something it clearly didn’t understand.
It replied with total certainty, fancy words, and zero hesitation.

To be fair, that’s exactly how I sounded in my first decade of coding.

Maybe the upgrade we need isn’t more data — it’s teaching AI to say,
“I’m not sure, but here’s a guess.”

Do you think humility belongs in machine learning?
