A Warning on the Misuse of Artificial Intelligence

  A few months ago, I received the title of Certified Prompt Engineer—a credential granted by a company specializing in artificial intelligence prompt technology. Obtaining this certification required approximately one year and involved passing both a written examination and a practical skills assessment.

 For the written portion, candidates must pass all quizzes in each course module and achieve a score of at least 95 out of 100 on the final examination. For the practical portion, candidates must create prompts within an actual AI platform that meet specific quality standards.

 When using AI to create advertisements or promotional materials, an important caution must be observed: AI systems often generate statements that make users appear more capable or qualified than they actually are. If someone advertises services or conducts business by claiming skills or qualifications they do not genuinely possess, and then receives compensation based on those false claims, such actions may be considered fraudulent and could potentially result in serious legal consequences.

 The same caution applies to personal profiles. Describing qualifications or certifications you genuinely hold is, of course, appropriate. However, falsifying academic backgrounds or employment histories—something that unfortunately occurs more often than expected—may lead to termination of employment or other serious legal and professional consequences. Before registering as a freelancer with the tax office, I had my qualifications formally verified at a public employment office.

 Any certification or credential you present should always be issued by a legitimate external organization. Creating a portfolio is also effective, as it provides visible and verifiable evidence of your capabilities. However, any achievements you list must be supported by actual evidence. Misrepresenting your abilities, even subtly, may constitute deceptive conduct and should be avoided at all costs.

 Be particularly cautious with exaggerated statements in written materials. All AI-generated content must be reviewed by a human before being published or shared. When presenting information related to specialized fields—such as medicine, law, or any other professional domain—always have the material reviewed by a qualified expert in that discipline. Consider this practice a form of self-protection.
