AI can translate sentences into another language at the level of a human translator.
AI technology can analyze chest X-Rays with equal or better accuracy than a resident-level radiologist.
AI can understand cause and effect (e.g., if I heat water on the stove, then it will boil) at the level of an adult human.
AI can transcribe a conversation from audio into text at the level of an adult human.
AI technology is versatile and a single AI program can perform many tasks, such as auto-completing sentences, controlling robots, etc.
