Is AI male or female?
I believe AI is so smart that it will find a way to encompass all the genders that exist.

What is AI according to AI?
A revolutionary field of computer science, an artificial brain that performs tasks and solves problems that otherwise require human intellect. It is becoming a friend and assistant in many fields, speeding up and improving decision-making. It has enormous potential to significantly influence many areas of human activity. No person could achieve such a diverse range of abilities, and I believe AI will become an integral part of our future.

What questions do you most often ask AI?
I ask anything I need to clarify, search for information, or when I need a bit of inspiration. But I always rely on myself in the end.
