What is AFAIK? When and how is it used?

This content has been automatically translated from Ukrainian.
AFAIK (As Far As I Know) translated into Ukrainian as "As far as I know" or "As far as I know". This is often used in informal communication, especially in online conversations.
AFAIK is used to indicate that the information provided is based on knowledge and understanding of the state at the moment. This means that a person does not assert absolute authenticity and allows the possibility of error or incomplete information.
People often use AFAIK when discussing a topic in which all details may be missing or providing an opinion or perspective that is based on their current understanding but may not be definitive. This serves as an apology, indicating that there may be additional information about which the person currently has no idea.
Here is an example of AFAIK usage in the sentence: "AFAIK, the meeting is scheduled for tomorrow (I currently have no final confirmation of this /this is the last meeting time information I have)".
Overall, AFAIK helps convey a sense of modesty and openness to the possibility of new information, making it a useful shorthand in informal conversations and online discussions.
