Truth is the basis of the Universe, proclaims Vedanta, and the Upanishads. Can Artificial Intelligence critically assess its own work and present truth? Will we lose critical thinking skills if we rely on AI and CHAT-GPT as 300 million users do each week?

These are deep questions raised in this article.
