How to study this deck

Artificial intelligence is in the news, at work and on social media, and its vocabulary is used more and more in English. Study by area: concepts (algorithm, machine learning, chatbot), risks (bias, deepfake, data breach) and security (privacy, encryption, cybersecurity). Practice giving opinions about technology with examples from your daily life.

The trickiest words

bias: it means an unfair tendency or prejudice: "algorithmic bias".
data breach: it is an incident in which private data is exposed.
deepfake: it is a fake video or audio made with AI that imitates a real person.

Examples in context
